The Keehn Family



We are Brian and Heather Keehn. We have been married for seven years and have two boys, Cale (age 4), and Quinn (age 2).  Before we were married we talked about adoption. Heather, had known from a young age that adoption would be part of her family. After Quinn was born adoption came up again. Our church, where we were living at the time, had a huge heart and burden for foster care and adoption. The theology of adoption was something we had not thought of a lot before. Because of the examples of our church family, we gained a deeper grasp for what it really means to be adopted into God's family. Understanding our adoption only made our desire to adopt even greater. Knowing there are children without families was too much to bear. We began our adoption journey in May of 2011. In August we accepted the referral of a sweet 10 month old little girl in Ethiopia who happens to have special needs. We continue to be amazed by what Lord is teaching us about adoption both vertically and horizontally. He has grown our faith in Him and we are in awe of His redemptive plan for our daughter!
