Adoption

One year ago today.... We met our daughter

On 4/4 I was clueless ...that night we got the call, and at this moment one yr ago her Bmom was in active labor and Aida was almost here!!! I am loving reliving every moment one year later knowing how the story ends!!!

 

Adoption is so hard, and so worth it. I am so blessed to have such beautiful babies... There were so many dark times, it's hard to believe how good life can be when you are out of the pit.  God is SO good! 

 

Maladies waiting... Your time WILL come and you WILL be a mom!!!!!? 

Married on 3.20.2004. It took 30 month, 2 failed adoptions and IVF for our first miracle. We have had 9 foster kids since he was born and started the domestic adoption process when he was 10 month old, we had 4 failed matches in that time. After our daughter was born we brought her home and spent 2 weeks fearing we might lose her because of complications that came up. But Praise God all went through and she is ours forever!
