Help the Wiedemanns Adopt

Donation protected
Please help the Wiedemann's adopt! 

We are asking anyone who feels interested in helping us grow our family to invest in us and donate to our adoption fund. Our goal is to raise $10,000 as soon as possible so that we can be matched with a baby. Adoption is a very costly process, beginning at over $25,000. If every Facebook friend gives $5 we will meet our goal. 

OUR STORY: 

Our path did not begin with adoption in mind. As two teachers who have devoted our lives to helping children succeed and adore what we do, we knew we always wanted to start a family, and a large one at that. 

We knew that kids were always in our future and did not want to wait too long to start our family. After adopting our cats, who many of you know are our fur babies, we couldn't wait to start trying for human babies :).  

As hard as this is to share publicly, the one thing we have learned from this journey of struggling to conceive is how comforting it is to we are not the only ones who are having the same difficulties in getting pregnant. 

The first month of trying to conceive, we got pregnant immediately and we were overjoyed, frightened, overwhelmed, and excited to start our new little family so quickly. Within a few weeks, we lost this pregnancy, but our doctors kept telling us that this was a good sign that we got pregnant so fast. They believed we would be pregnant again in no time. 

Unfortunately, this was note the case. After more than a year of not getting pregnant, we sought a fertility doctor. Unfortunately, after a year of fertility treatments, the emotional demand, the toll it took on Taylor's body, and the financial demand, this became too much. We decided to take a break and focus on our marriage. 

God has definitely put us on a path to adoption. There are many signs that God has sent that have proven to us that this is our calling in life. 

HOW YOU CAN HELP: 

Please pray for us. Adoption is a road with many twists and turns and we want to trust God as he writes this story. The second major way our friends and family can be involved is in the fundraising process. We are also continuing to save our own money and put into this account every month. We just think it will be great to see God use our friends and family who want to invest in a very practical, tangible way. 

THANKS: 
Thanks for taking the time to read this and hear our dream. Thank you to those who walked with us as grow our family through adoption. If you have any other questions, or want to contact us personally, we would love to talk more and share our hearts. 

Love, 
Brett and Taylor Wiedemann
