Why Adoption?
Early in our relationship we talked about the possibility of adopting a child one day. This was before we knew we would be challenged by infertility. We conceived our only child through in vitro fertilization. Due to a later miscarriage and the stress of fertility treatments we have been graciously led to adoption to expand our family. We love being parents and feel our family isn’t quite complete! We are a very loving and happy family and are grateful for the opportunity to adopt!
