Its so hard to believe that our baby boy is 5 weeks old and has been officially a part of our family for 1 week. This has been the most exciting and exhausting week of our lives, but we wouldn't change a second of it! We are so incredibly blessed by the love and support from our family and friends. God is so amazing and we are truly blessed to have you all help celebrate our little man's arrival. As I sit here feeding him, I remember what it used to feel like to dream about this day. I remember how much it hurt to hear another friend or family member was expecting. I remember how it would hurt to get that invitation to yet another baby shower. Now we are making plans for baptism & I will be attending a baby shower for ME this weekend! Let me tell you, I would experience every single bit of pain, tears, paperwork and failed fertility treatments over again. It all led us to finding the little boy who was meant for us. It took 6 years to get here. But we all believe it took that long because our son wasn't in this world yet.
I began this blog while we were waiting to adopt our first child. It started with a 6 year battle with infertility and resulted in an amazing roller coaster ride to parenthood. We are the parents of two little blue-eyed rambunctious boys thanks to the incredible gift of adoption. This blog continues to be a journey through parenthood and open adoption. It has it's share of ups and downs. I'm happy to be enjoying it with God and my husband of 15 years. We hope you find joy in our journey.
Well said! So happy for you guys!
