Why Adoption?

We both have wanted to have children. Unfortunately, we have been unable to conceive naturally. We explored fertility treatments; however, treatments were unsuccessful. Again, we believe origin and culture are important to share/ celebrate with a child, so that the child can have a well-rounded view of their world in which they live. We are open to a child of a different race because for us as adoption was always a consideration for us. We feel strongly about being parents and know that adoption is the path that God has chosen for us.
