I always dreamed of watching him become a dad. Through our struggle with infertility, I wondered when we’d get to have this moment. Then God placed adoption on our hearts, and here we were, walking out of the hospital with our son. The gift of getting to be Ellis’ parents is something I’ll never take for granted. 🥹

I’ve loved being Joseph’s wife for the last 9 years and now I get to watch him love our little boy - a chapter that means more to me than I can put into words.

Thank you, Jesus, for leading us here. And to Ellis’ sweet birth family, we hold so much love and respect for you and the courage you’ve shown. We’re forever grateful to share loving baby E. 🤍
