Here’s a little about our Adoption journey:
This time 3 years ago we got the call about this beautiful little girl. Right about now we were on our way to meet her for the very first time as I drove my hubby crazy hyperventilating and crying while we sat through rush hour traffic on our 5 hour drive -that seemed to take forever! I had so many thoughts running through my head through the trip, like - what if they didn’t like us, what if they change their minds, what do we say, the list went on! All I knew was my heart was bursting with love for her and I hadn’t even met her yet. I worried about rather the nurses were watching over her, was she warm enough, was she eating okay. I prayed the entire ride and would occasionally pinch myself to make sure this wasn’t all a dream! We walked into the hospital room around 10:30 pm to finally meet her and her birth parents. Kadence was in her little portable hospital bed next to her birth mother. We were not sure what to say to these courageous strangers we were meeting for the first time, but I felt this immediate connection to them, a love as if I had known them all my life. My heart melted, knowing the strength and love these beautiful parents had for this little girl. An unspeakable love for them to make the decision of Adoption and to entrust us with this incredible little life they had created. Here she is 3 years later and sometimes it still seems surreal that we have been so incredibly blessed. Kadence is everything we prayed and dreamed for and so much more. She has taken on us the most incredible journey of our lives and I can’t wait to see what happens next!
An Adoption journey is certainly the most emotional ride you’ll ever take but it’s also worth every minute of it! 💞
