Hello! First of all, I just want to say thank you for visiting this donation site. My daughter and I are hoping to bring home a baby this winter, and all we have left to do is raise the funds! Kaylie is so excited about having a little brother or sister, and I'm doing everything I can to make that happen for her.

Many people might call me crazy being a single mom and wanting to adopt, but I love kids with all my heart and I'm so excited I can barely stand it!

I've chosen the agency "Lifetime Adoptions" which is a very reputable adoption agency. I've been doing paperwork since February 2009, and have already been approved into Lifetime's adoption program. All I have left to do is raise the $18,000 needed to complete the adoption! The funds have to be there before I can be matched to a birthmother, so I'm doing my best to make it happen as quickly as possible.

Since I'll likely need to be away for 7 days after the baby is born, I'm hoping to be able to do so this winter while I'm not working 6 nights a week at the Hoe-Down. If you haven't had a chance to come see the Hoe-Down, visit the website at www.hoedown.net and come see us soon!

We really appreciate your donations (more than you know!), and as soon as we bring our baby home, we're going to mail out birth announcements to everyone who has helped us on our journey. If your address changes, you can contact me on my website at www.lesliewright.com.

I also have tiaras for sell on my website at www.sparklesbyleslie.com. The proceeds from these tiaras will also go to our adoption fundraising efforts.

Again, Kaylie and I want to thank you so much for helping us bring home our baby, and we can't wait to send you a picture!
