We are humbled and excited to announce that our children are gaining an older brother!
After being a licensed foster home for 2 years, we began to shift our attention to the need for adoptive homes for older children. We completed our home study in early June and on June 20, 2023 were informed that there was a child within a local Christian adoption agency needing a forever home. After prayer separately and together, it was clear that we should be available as a possible match for this 11 yo boy. Just one short (and very busy) month later we found out that we have been matched to be a forever home for "M!" We are truly humbled to get to welcome him into our home and have his grandmother join our lives as well.
This all being said, we truly never thought private adoption would be "the plan" when adopting an older child. Because of the quick nature of our matching/placement (He will move in before school starts!) we are reaching out for financial support for "M's" adoption.
If you are able or feel led to help support our adoption in any way, please know that we truly appreciate your help. We couldn't be more excited to add another son to the Sjogren clan!
