Plot twist! We are adopting! ❤️
About a month ago, we decided to end all our fertility treatment. It just wasn’t for us anymore. But the ache of wanting to grow our family was still very much there. We prayed about it & that’s when we decided to open our hearts to adoption. Over the next few weeks, we started to research & dive into the adoption process & it all started to make sense. Our struggles with secondary infertility brought us to where we feel like we needed to be. God has truly blessed us & although each of our miscarriages have hurt us tremendously, we see that they have been crucial for us to get to this moment and find our true purpose which we feel like is growing our family through adoption. We have soooo much love to give and Addy will be an absolute AMAZING sister—big OR little!
We’re announcing our plans to adopt early because we will be doing a lot of fundraising over the next 6 months, specifically through my Etsy shop, so that we have all the funds ready to go by January & can start the long & unpredictable but totally worth it process of adopting! And y’all know I can’t keep a secret & love to share so I’m bringing everyone along the ride with us! 😌 Excitedly anxious, but feeling so so much relief with putting our trying to conceive journey behind us & moving on with finding our missing puzzle piece through adoption. I plan on writing a more in depth blog about our decision to adopt as there was a lot that went into it, but that will be saved for another time! And will of course update as the process moves alone until we find our forever child!
