A Brother for Sara...

One evening, while Renée was putting Sara to bed, she said, "Mommy, all my friends at school have baby brothers. Can you grow one for me?" Renée explained to her that there are many ways to have a baby brother or sister, and reminded her of her friend from Haiti who was adopted and moved a few months earlier. Sara's eyes widened, and she yelled out, "Let's do that, Mommy!"And with that, our considerations about international adoption were confirmed.

Welcome to our blog, our journal, and our story. We hope you will read, enjoy and walk alongside us as we graft our family tree with a beautiful new shoot.

  1. Hi you two.
    I knew from the first that you guys would go through with this, cause that's just the kind of people you are. Even though i didn't hear anything till i got your email, i have been praying for you two, that you would make the right decision for your family. And, it looks like God has led you to this adoption!! I am so happy for you both, and look forward to a new nephew into the family. WOW!
    Love you all,
    Aunt Henny.

  2. Congratulations on your decision to adopt! It's such an exciting and enriching way to expand the family. The bonds we have created through our own sons' adoptions are beyond description. Your family is in for a wonderful journey. Looking forward to hearing more.
