Kara shares a tender experience with her adopted daughter as a baby, 

letting her know, there were more babies on their way. 

How they came to join their family 

is a beautiful story 

I am happy to share today. 

I loved sharing this experience of Shari and the adoption of her son.

I also love that she took this experience and created a children's book

to help adopted children better understand

their journey to their "forever family"

Giving the gift of life is sometimes 

a partnership between two mother hearts

—a birth mother yearning for a loving home for the child in her womb 

and another mother eagerly awaiting the child she has “grown” within her heart. 

I hope you enjoy Judith’s story of the adoption of her second son as much as I did.

I loved being able to interview Edward who searched for his adoptive mother when he was 68 years old.

The information that he found led him on a journey that was eye opening and led to a greater appreciation for mothers and birth.

The Gift Best Given is his memoir that he wrote after years of delving into discovering his birth mother’s experience.

But with DNA testing, Google and many miracles leading the way, he was able to learn so much!

Please sit back and enjoy this inspirational interview that kicks off our adoption series.

We spend a lot of time preparing for our births
