The BOND that links your true FAMILY is not one of blood, but of RESPECT and JOY in each other's life. -Richard Bach

"When will our baby come?"

Jarred and Jenna are very excited to be a big brother and sister someday. In their prayers they consistently pray for "our baby" and "our birth mother." Last week Jenna was asking when our baby was going to come. I explained (as best as I could to a four-year-old) that we have to be patient and wait for our prayers to be answered. A couple days later Jarred asked a similar question. Jenna piped in and said, "Jarred we have to be patient." That was a good reminder to us all, thanks, Sis!

Adoption

We have two little miracles in our life, Jarred and Jenna. Yet we know that someone is missing from our family. After several failed fertility treatments we now know that our family is meant to grow through the miracle of adoption. Both of our families have been blessed through adoption. My dad was adopted as an infant and my sister-in-law was also adopted. Jeff's oldest brother and sister were adopted. Jeff's youngest sister recently adopted a sweet little girl. Each of these miracles have their own amazing stories. Follow us as we begin our adoption journey. We are so grateful for all of our family and friends who are supporting us through this adventure.
