A Note From M&S

Hi Ladies,
We just wanted to express our gratitude one last time to each of you for your part in our adoption journey! There were definitely times over the last couple of years where we didn’t think we’d make it to finalization today, but we never gave up hope. All of your support has meant more than you know, especially during our time out of state and the few months following after bringing our baby home.
We are always happy to pay it forward. If you ever have a couple (especially same-sex couples) questioning if they will ever become parents, we are more than happy to speak with them and share our adoption journey with them. If we can help give hope to someone else, we’re more than happy to do that. We recommend your agency to anyone we know considering adoption!
M & S

KW's Journey

Most people bash me about giving my son up for adoption, but no one knows my story. I was date raped last year on POF. POF is a dating app to meet single people online and I met a guy who pretended to be someone else; however, I ended up pregnant and my family tried to convince me to abort the child, but my heart would not allow me to murder an innocent child.
