Why Adoption?
While attending college Les felt the call to adoption after listening to a Christian radio program. That call to adoption was confirmed after Raquel’s infertility issues persisted. It was with great joy that we adopted our first child in 2017. We both come from families with brothers and sisters’ so extending our family feels natural. Adoption is certainly the right choice for us!
