Hello! We have BIG news!
We are adopting.
The average amount to adopt is $35,000.00. That isn't including after the child comes into your life, either. Mike and I have been in the process of adopting for 2 years. During that time, Mike lost his job. We aren't giving up on our dream and would like a little assistance. We don't have any children of our own but would love to open our home and hearts to a child we can call our own.
It seems like forever that Mike and I have been on this journey, but it's only been 2 years. That's long enough, but we're still here, waiting for our child to choose us.
Mike and I are grateful for all of you that have helped us along the way. It's been hard, but we aren't giving up.
Today, Mike and I received information that we were approved for a $200 grant.
Mike and I are truly thankful for all of our family and friends that have been in our corner since day 1. It's a hard journey and it seems like it's never going to happen, but with our support team in our corner, we don't lose site on the prize. Our Blondie was so ready to be my number one helper with our baby, but sadly she passed after 13 lovely years with her. Now, Junior looks forward to being the best big brother he can be.
Mike and I experienced a failed adoption last November. It was hard to get over, but we did and are continuing our journey for adoption. We have a lot of love in our hearts to share and can't wait to share it with a little one.
