First Come Love, Then Comes Marriage, Then Comes Baby…

After a few years of marriage, the young couple decided that they wanted to go for International adoption. Jesse explains that it “was a way for us to be at work in the world, to lend our very tiny amount of help to causes that we cared about and hurt for but seemed powerless against. War, famine, and disease seem huge and far away from our wealthy American culture. We wanted to do something more. And we wanted to show the love and care that God had shown us when he adopted us as His sons and daughters.”

Patience Is A Virtue

Despite their desire to become adoptive parents, it took an unbelievable number of months before they became close to bringing a baby home. In that time, they were able to prepare their home for the long awaited little angel. Unfortunately for them, they would have to wait that much longer.
