We have BIG news!
We are adopting a child!
We are beyond excited to be growing our family through adoption and are doing everything we can to be prepared to welcome a beautiful new life into our home. As part of our adoption process, we have started a crowdfunding campaign.
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 she grows up. Thank you for loving, praying, and supporting us!
Here is a little bit about our story…
We are Justin and Kristina Lawrence and we have been married 12 years. We have two biological children, Jonah and Asher. Kristina had two difficult, life threatening pregnancies with both children. Jonah was born three weeks early because of preeclampsia, and was in the NICU for a few days to make sure he could breathe on his own. Asher was born one week early, and after his birth Kristina developed postpartum preeclampsia and the medical staff was worried she would lose her life. After that we were advised to not get pregnant again. But, when we were first married we both talked and dreamed about having three children. When the time came to talk about having a third child, adoption became the first topic of discussion because we have always had a heart for adoption!
So, after two extremely difficult pregnancies and deliveries we decided, through prayer and counsel, to expand our family through adoption. As a family we are stepping out in faith for what God has called us to do. We are extremely excited to meet our child that God has for us, and we are praying for her everyday! Our next adventure awaits…
