Max & Sydney H.

are adopting a child from United States of America

We are so excited to share that we are adopting!

Like many families, our path wasn’t what we expected. After facing fertility challenges and learning that growing our family biologically might not be possible again, we spent time grieving what we thought our story would look like. It was a season of uncertainty, but also one that helped clarify something important—our desire to love and raise children never changed.

Through prayer, reflection, and many conversations, adoption began to feel like the right path forward. What started as an alternative slowly became a calling. We felt peace knowing that adoption allows us to grow our family while also offering a child a safe, loving, and permanent home.

Today, we are filled with hope and gratitude as we take this step forward. Adoption is both a beautiful gift and a significant financial commitment, and we are humbled by the community walking alongside us. Every donation, prayer, and word of encouragement helps bring us one step closer to welcoming a child into our family.

Thank you for being part of our story. We cannot wait to see how it unfolds.

    Our baby is home!

    March 2, 2026

    As some of you know, this past Tuesday Leilani came home with us. We would not be here as a family of four without your love and support. We are so humbled by and deeply appreciative of your partnership. We feel so blessed by the way our community came around us and helped make this happen so quickly. Every donation, meal, text, and prayer was noticed and meant the world to us.

    Thank you,
    Max, Sydney, Henry, & Leilani
