Hey!

Hello everyone! I have finally decided to start blogging, so here's an attempt to get you caught up on what is going on in our lives and hopefully I'll be consistent in updating this every week.

Jonathan and I have been married for almost seven years now, and have loved every minute of it. After a year of being married, we decided it was time for us to start planning for a family. We went through a couple of years of medicine and ultrasounds. Then we saw an infertility specialist in Tulsa where we went through one cycle of AI and one IVF cycle. Long story short, here we are almost 6 years later still planning for a family only now it is through the eyes of adoption. Now, let me preface this blog by stating that adoption for us is not a second best plan. We have not decided to adopt because we have lost hope of ever having a biological child. Even though we have been told that medically there is no hope, we serve a very good God who is much bigger than any medical intervention. But this isn't about being pregnant- it's about being a mom, and I don't have to birth a child to do that. For now, God may have closed my womb, but He has opened our hearts to the gift of adoption. We couldn't be more thrilled! We are excited about the new adventure of parenthood, and will keep you posted on the details of our journey.
