Why Adoption?

We lost two babies before we had our daughter and after those losses Kimmy wanted to adopt; she’d felt called to adopt from a young age. Luke insisted we try just once more for a biological child. And thank goodness he did, because our daughter wouldn’t be here without his faith & persistence!

Our friends and family members who have adopted and/or been adopted have been extremely encouraging and supportive and will continue to be an awesome support for our family.

Words can’t explain how much our hearts already love this baby. We cannot wait to meet him or her and welcome them into our family!
