    I loved hearing your son's adoption story! We felt like we hit a few brick walls with our first adoption too so I feel you on that one! Your daughter eating breakfast with his picture... oh my heart. Almost had me in tears. This was all so precious!

      It was so hard not to get crazy emotional while filming this! It was such a journey but so worth it! I'm sorry you guys had to hit a few brick walls too.

    Your adoption story brings back so many memories! We adopted our son from Guatemala 16 years ago. Best decision we ever made❤. Thank you for sharing!

      Oh wow! We looked into adopting from central or South America but could never find a program that we could apply for.

    This is such a beautiful story! What a tough journey. I've found that when things are meant to be, God often puts trials in our way. I may be completely wrong, but I think it's to test us and prove us to see if we are truly ready for the next step...
    My dad lives near Durban.
    Your children are beautiful! The Father truly blessed you with them! I'm so glad you found your little boy.

      I love that you have a connection so close to where we were!
      And I think you are right, every trial is a growing opportunity and a chance to grow closer to God. It's not always easy but it's always worth it.

    This is such a great story!! I've read it on your blog but thanks for sharing it again :) My cousin and his wife are in India right now, picking up their little girl, so my heart is just so happy about adoption in general right now :)

    Love your story. Although my story to adoption is different I could really relate to hitting brick walls on our journey. So happy it worked out for your family.

      It can be hard to hit so many brick walls in the journey but it is so worth it in the end!
