Why Adoption?

After struggling with infertility, we chose to consider alternatives to building our family. As Byron’s sister is adopted, we were familiar with the process and soon realized that we had been given a gift to share our love with an adopted child. We have always wanted a family and to share our love and joy with children, and adoption is giving us that chance! We have been a part of many of our friend’s children’s lives and cannot wait to share that love with our own child(ren).
