Sean and Katie M.

are adopting a child from United States of America

We are beyond excited to share we have adopted a child!

It has taken years of prayers, perseverance, and preparation. Then, we got what is called a "storke drop"… baby is here!

As part of our adoption process, we have started a crowd funding campaign. It may surprise you to hear that adoption-related costs can easily total up to $45,000 or more. This is why we have set a goal of $15,000 to help ease the financial weight that often overwhelms adoptive parents.

We are putting together a 1000 piece puzzle and would like to raise $15 for each piece and write your name on the back. We are planning to glue the puzzle together so we can see both sides and put the puzzle on our wall so our son can see all the people that helped bring him home.

We hope that by inviting you into this process, you will consider yourself, as we do, part of the amazing community we hope to build around our son.
