OMG Incredible news!!!!!!!

AbJams · February 2010

My BIL and his partner adopted a baby boy! We didn't even know they were trying! A few years ago BIL and his then partner were going to but then the birth mother changed her mind... it was really devastating, but it turned out for the best because now BIL is married to a really wonderful man who we all love... and now they're DADS!!!!! I'm sure that the experience BIL had the first go round is why they were quiet about this. Our new nephew's name is Chance, and he's 3 days old. OMG OMG OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yay! It makes me so happy when same sex couples are successful in having kids because it is usually so difficult for them! Congrats to your family!

Yes, there are alot of very excited phone calls happening right now! I guess around Christmas they also had a birth mother change her mind, so this has been quite the process. And now BAM, they have a son! I cannot wait to meet him,but for now they can't take him out of Illinois, so they are staying there until everything is finalized. EEEEEEEE!!!

Great news! The same thing happened to my co-workers brother...the birth mom changed her mind the day after the baby was born and their whole family was really devastated. They've since successfully adopted an adorable baby boy. I love stories like these with happy endings!
