Unique aspects of our adoption story...
I am an adoptee, and was adopted as a baby in a closed adoption in the U.S. Twelve years ago, I was reunited with my birthmother and birthfamily. I feel that adoption was a part of God’s plan for my life, and am blessed to have a family that loves me and also a caring birthfamily.
When I wanted to have children… God grew my heart for adoption, and now I am an adoptive mom! We adopted our precious daughter in 2009 in an open adoption, and have a special relationship with her birthfamily.
