is adopting a child

Hello to all our family, friends and those reading this that maybe we do or don't even know but yet but somehow may connect to our story.

When we married almost 8 years ago, we were certain we wanted a child together. As year after year pass, uncertainty grew in our hearts of how our family story will be written. Although sometimes heartbroken, we remained hopeful that GOD will be faithful to us and answer our prayers even if they looked different then what we had planned. Just like the infertility journey had its ups and downs, the journey of adoption equally can feel the same way.

Over a year of home study prepping, a massive amount of paperwork , lots of training and overwhelming costs. We are officially home study approved, and a "waiting family" . While we wait, we continue to educate ourselves on this process, we prepare as much as we can, but most importantly we are trusting GOD and his plans for our family story. Our family will be big, blended, colorful and a wide range in ages. Our family may not appear traditional or quite understood, however , It will be a depiction of Gods grace, faithfulness and divine orchestration.

Thank You in advance for reading this, for your prayers, for your support and love. We have seen GOD clearly fulfilling a greater purpose through this all and you are playing a part of that purpose too.

Overwhelmed with gratitude,

~Melanie & Thomas
