We have always been excited about starting a family through adoption. After years of wanting a baby, our journey took us through fertility clinics, lawyers, and finally an adoption agency. In the Spring of 2015 we decided upon Adoption by Choice, a Christian based adoption agency in Erie, PA. In early August we were contacted by the agency and were informed that we had been chosen by a potential birth mother, soon to be delivering a baby girl that needed a family. Our daughter, Matilda Bea Schaney, "Tilly", was born on August 14th, and we brought her home from the hospital just two days later. Having Tilly in our lives has been a blessing. She is truly our greatest adventure! We have many months to go before the adoption is finalized and the legal work is completed, but our journey as a family has begun and we couldn&'t be happier. We humbly ask for your prayers and financial donations to help us tackle the financial hurdle of adoption. Please share our story to with as many people as possible and join us on this journey to help finalize our adoption. Thank you for your support.
