Ok everyone, We have BIG news! We are adding a lil man to the York Clan!
Thats right, we are are beyond excited to announce that we will be adopting! :)
For those of you that don’t know, we have been trying to start a family for over 8 years and through the hardships of infertility and multiple miscarriages, God has prepared the perfect opportunity for us through the gift of adoption.
Over the last year, God has been telling us that he would restore to us the JOY that we had lost in starting a family and were unsure of what that actually looked like, until it was right in front of us. In October of 2023, we were connected with someone who was looking for adoptive parents for an 18 month old boy without having to put him into the foster care system. We are so excited to announce that THIS JUNE, guardianship will be given to us and we will be bringing him home!!! The adoption will be finalized 6-8 months after that.
We are doing everything we can to be prepared to welcome a beautiful new life into our home. As part of our adoption process, we have started a crowdfunding campaign and through this page, any contributions made will be tax deductible. We hope that by inviting you into this process, you will see yourself as part of the community we hope to build around our child as he grows up.
This is an independent adoption so thankfully, the costs are lower than a typical adoption since there is no agency involved. However, there will still be attorney fees, court costs and travel expenses(he is in Kansas City). Our immediate need is $5.000 for attorney fees to start the adoption process with the court.
Again, thank you so much for your consideration and contributions. Please keep us in your prayers as the 2 of us soon become 3.
