Our New Journey
Our New Journey
The past three years have been wonderful raising our son Brighton. He is full of energy, confidence, and loves life. He has enriched our home and strengthened our family! Because of the joy we feel with Brighton and a strong feeling that our family is not yet complete, we have continued to try and adopt another child. We have kept our adoption profile and home study current and have been searching for a birth mother through independent adoption. Consequently, we have experienced a roller coaster of emotions as many well intentioned friends and family members have sought to connect us with expectant mothers, however, each time without success.

We have kept our adoption profile and home study current and have been searching for a birth mother through independent adoption. Consequently, we have experienced a roller coaster of emotions as many well intentioned friends and family members have sought to connect us with expectant mothers, however, each time without success.
In 2015, we had a birth mother contact us. She was due in January 2016, and wanted us to be the adoptive parents of her baby girl. We were thrilled to be so fortunate! We had an attorney ready, paperwork in progress, the hospital lined up, and post placement arrangements to help the birth mother. Just one week before delivery, the sweet birth mother changed her mind and decided that she would raise her baby girl. We were heartbroken with this devastating loss.
This year we finally made the decision and the leap of faith to adopt through Heart to Heart Adoption Agency (http://adopt.hearttoheart.com). We are looking forward to bringing another sweet child into our home to love and raise.
Through the process of joining Heart to Heart Adoption Agency, we have had the opportunity to make a book about our cute family to share with family, friends, and birthmothers to share our story. LaRecia had so much fun making it...So here it is!

Why adoption would be a miracle for us...
In March of 2005, I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis, which is an autoimmune disease that affects the joints in the body. I had to begin a treatment to prevent my joints from getting twisted and disfigured. The treatment is a mild form of chemotherapy. With the help of my medicine I am able to live a strong healthy normal life. If I were to get pregnant, the medicine would be very harmful to a developing baby. We have chosen adoption due to my autoimmune disease. We strongly feel that adoption is Heavenly Father's special plan for us. We are excited to experience the challenges of being parents and look forward to build new relationships. This is why adoption would be a miracle for us.
