Adoption Conference

We spent this past weekend at the National Families Supporting Adoption Conference up in Layton. It was AMAZING!!! We went to an awesome workshop about infertility, a workshop on open adoption, one on transracial adoption, and our favorite: several panels with birth mothers. We are so inspired by the stories that these birth mothers shared! Statistics say that every 26 seconds an abortion occurs... scary! Placing a child for adoption is truely the bravest, most selfless choice these birth mothers will ever make! We have so much respect for them and we are thrilled to be on our journey into the incredible world of adoption!
