RICKY & BECKY WANT TO ADOPT - OUR ADOPTION JOURNEY

The photographer snapped picture after gleaming picture on that hot sunny day in July, 2009. It was summer in Baltimore, though we were sweltering in our best we didn't care, it was our wedding day and we were enjoying every second of it. Behind those wide smiles that day was the worry that came with the diagnosis that preceded it by several years. I had Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome, and we knew from the time I was sixteen that it would be difficult for me to conceive. Though we had talked about it for years before the wedding, it didn't mean it didn't hurt anytime one of our well-meaning guests mentioned the K word- kids.  They would ask with hope and excitement in their eyes about our future plans.  
   
Fast forward three years, and we're still dealing with the pain of infertility. After two years of countless shots, doctor’s appointments, basal body temperature readings and more negative tests with heartache that we could never have imagined, we're still childless. Barren. Empty-handed.

In January of this year, we decided it was time to move on. With the new year came new hope, and we set our sights on adoption. We took time to mourn the child we'll never have together- we took time to let the wound of never having biological children heal. 
 
Once we healed, we moved on, not without knowing what we've been through, just moving on to another chapter. We are so excited to open this new chapter of our lives, and for the first time in three years it feels like our dream of having a family will become a reality. We write every week to our future baby so that they'll know how much they are loved and cared for, and how much they were never, ever unwanted- even for an instant. For the first time in a long time, I don't cry walking down the baby aisle of my favorite stores. 

Adoption is a hard, unknown road, definitely not to be traveled along for the faint of heart. But so far, it has been beautiful. We've come together, closer as a family, and the process has taught us patience and understanding in a way no other family building option could. We are going to love our future child just as much as the biological child that eluded us - if not more, because this child will be supremely real, made of flesh and bone and a soul that was meant to cross paths with ours. This adoption journey has just begun and we are looking forward to being a family that we’ve always dreamed of.
