Why Adoption?
We always wanted to have children, and we talk about the things we look forward to doing with our children someday. Spending time with our nieces and nephews, and our friend’s kids has been rewarding, but it doesn’t replace our desire to have our own family. After trying for years to build our family naturally and through IVF, we turned to adoption. We have relatives and friends who have built their families through adoption. We see the joy those children have brought into their lives, and we look forward to that same opportunity. Being a biracial couple, we are open to a child of any gender or race. Our family is composed of different ethnicities already, and we know that we can provide a loving, and supportive environment for any child. We love to share and celebrate both of our cultures and traditions and look forward to starting our own family.
