Why Adoption?

Early on in our relationship we discussed having children and knew we would love to have a large family. We both knew that we could not conceive naturally without fertility treatment, but always knew no matter what we both wanted to build our family through adoption. Both of us are extremely excited to become parents. We cannot wait to share our love of life and have the opportunity to teach and nurture our child, all while giving them our unconditional love.
