More Alike Than Not

I remember when Sarah was born, the geneticist came to the hospital to visit us. There was one thing she said that I have always remembered, and understand more today than I did then. She said, “Your daughter will be more “like” your other children than “not like” your other children. She was so right.

And Then There Were Two!

When we saw Allysen’s picture on Christmas Eve, we knew we wanted to adopt her. A little over two weeks later, we saw Bella and fell in love again. My husband said he knew, the minute he saw her little face, we needed to bring her home. His enthusiasm for adopting a second child – Bella – has surprised even me. 
When we think about giving these children a hope and a future, it brings so much purpose to our lives.
