Dear friends and family,

With hearts full of joy, faith, and anticipation, we are so excited to share: WE ARE ADOPTING!

This decision has been prayerfully made, and we deeply believe that God is writing a beautiful story — not just for our family, but for the child He is preparing to place in our lives.

Our journey to parenthood has been marked by four years of quiet heartbreak and the profound challenges of infertility. Yet, through that struggle, a truth has emerged for us over the past year: our family is meant to grow through adoption! We believe that true family isn't always about blood, but about the unconditional love that binds us together.

We want to be honest about the reality of adoption: while it's deeply rewarding, it's also financially and emotionally demanding. A domestic infant adoption can cost between $50,000-$65,000. This includes agency fees, legal services, birth mother support, travel, and much more. It's a lot more than we can take on alone! But we believe we're not meant to walk this road alone.

As we prepare to bring our child home, we humbly ask for your support with the significant costs involved. If you feel led, we would be incredibly grateful for your partnership. Every little bit truly helps, bringing us one step closer to holding our future child in our arms. This isn't just our story; it's a shared adventure, a community coming together to say yes to love, family, and hope!

With love and hope,

Brent and Catherine
