I wrote a letter to the family that adopted Stephen and his brother, but we have yet to hear back from them and it has been over a month. I am so disappointed. I am not sure why this family will not allow us to at least correspond with them and exchange pictures. I pray every day for contact. I ... Comment - Like

We have just found out that one of our boys, whom we called Stephen, and his baby brother have been adopted by another family and are home here in the US. I need to state up front that we are beyond happy that they are out of the orphanage, and quite frankly, out of Kazakhstan. With that said, we ... Comment - Like

Orson was brought back to California Thursday night and will now have to answer to the 62 felony charges against him. This video shows him stating his innocence and talking about the joy and peace he has in himself. Sickening. I hope this joy and peace comforts him in his jail cell each night. Comment - Like

While I certainly don't claim to be the only one to become pregnant after an adoption loss, or in our case adoption losses...I know it is quite rare.

We are amazed and feel so blessed by the outpouring of support! We can't thank you all enough. This enables us to move toward being "paper-ready" by getting our home study updated and to reapply for our I171h and get our fingerprints.

The loss of a child that you envisioned being your son or daughter forevermore takes time to heal. I assume some take the leap of faith to pursue another adoption while others may take a different route. Joe and I have turned back to our Reproductive Endocrinologist to exhaust the more "high-tech"... Comment - Like

I stumbled upon this site while searching for a Bible study with an emphasis on adoption or infertility. It seems like it is just getting started, but will probably be a great resource!
