It’s time to make our girl a Walker!
Samantha is now 8 months old and we have begun the final chapter of the process to ensure her home is with us always. She came to us the day she turned a month old under a safety plan then we were granted full custody in June.
While we were not expecting this to happen in our lives or at least not this year, we are forever grateful to her birth mother for choosing us and to God for bringing her into our lives.
While our process has been significantly less than a traditional adoption process which can cost $35-50,000, we have still had considerable costs along the way that we were not prepared for this year. We are hoping to raise the funds to cover the legal costs associated with the process. That is where AdoptTogether comes in. We are using this platform to crowdfund enough to cover the legal fees we have already paid and what we are still working to pay to finalize the final steps of the process.
