Why Adoption?
After a few years of trying to start a family (and also getting older), we decided that adoption is the way to grow our family. Adoption has been near and dear to our hearts and it is something we had discussed before we even tried to start our own family. We have many friends who are adopted or have adopted, so we feel a strong link to be adoptive parents to a child. Throughout this adoption process so far, we feel even more drawn to it. We are open to all races and look forward to bringing a healthy baby into our family.
