We Have Some News...



We are adopting!!! 

Josh and I could not be more excited! We cannot believe that we are finally here and hopefully, before too long, we will have a sweet little babe to snuggle. 

Over the past couple years, Josh and I have gone through several failed IUIs and most recently, a failed IVF cycle. It's been a long, exhausting journey physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Our faith has been tested time and time again and along with our marriage, has grown even stronger by the grace of God. There have been so many moments where I have questioned God and haven't understood why but I knew deep down in my heart that God had a purpose through it all. 

After our failed IVF cycle, it was a very dark time for both of us. The day we found out that we weren't going to be parents naturally, we both cried tears of pain and frustration. Amidst the heartache, that very same day, God revealed to both of us the plan He had all along - for us to grow our family through the amazing gift of adoption. We have finally come to the point where it is more important to us to have a family than to make a family. 

We will be adopting domestically. We have found an agency to work with and are beginning our home study. We are so excited for the awesome privilege to rescue a child from a life that they may have otherwise had and bring them into our loving home. 

Please pray for us and with us as we embark on this exciting journey! If you feel led, you can partner with us by donating to our adoption here. Any amount would mean the world to us and you would be apart of our story of bringing our precious baby home! 

We are excited to see how God works and to finally meet our baby who God has predestined to be ours before time began. I cannot wait to share our family's journey with you all.

  1. I know your pain... your heart... your dreams... been there... and have done what you are getting ready to do. (except we adopted three at a time). Will be praying for this journey! May be more disappointments, frustrations along the way... but God is so Faithful and will give you the child HE wants you to raise. His timing, His plan, His grace... all the way!!! Happy you have decided to do this!!!
