We are adopting a baby!
We are beyond excited and are doing everything we can to be prepared to welcome a baby into our home. As part of our adoption process, we have started a crowdfunding campaign. It may surprise you to hear that adoption related costs can easily total up to $40,000 or more! Since raising a child is expensive enough - we are asking for help to ease the financial burden of the adoption fees that often overwhelms adoptive parents.
Jeff and I were married in 2008 and we both knew we wanted kids. We were blessed with 2 beautiful children- Eliza and Wyatt. Everything seemed to be falling into place. It wasn't until we decided to have another baby that we discovered I have premature ovarian failure. This meant I could no longer have any more biological children- I was devastated. For a couple years, we looked into IVF with donor eggs or even embryo adoption but it didn't feel right for us. I know now that adoption is what we are meant to do in order to grow our family. Eliza and Wyatt are thrilled to get another sibling in the future.
We hope that by inviting you into this process, you will see yourself as part of the community we hope to build around our child as he/she grows up. Please consider a tax deductible donation to help our family dream become a reality!
Thank you,
Jeff, Mary, Eliza and Wyatt
