Why Adoption?
Adoption is how we feel we are supposed to build our family. We have some infertility issues as well as some health issues that would make pregnancy potentially dangerous for Emily. So, when we found out that in vitro fertilization and adoption were the only ways that we were likely to be able to have children, we felt that adopting was the right choice for us. There are so many children in the world who could use a loving home and we are so very ready to open our loving home.
