Three Question Thursday????

Every Thursday I will post 3 questions we seem to get when we open up about our Journey to Adopt!

It has been interesting seeing the reactions and questions that are asked from people when you disclose that you are adopting.  Here are 3 big common ones.

#1 - Is there a fertility problem? Usually this is followed by great doctor recommendations.
Answer - We have no known fertility problems. We choose to not do further testing and medicine to help with production. We have had one miscarriage.  Which helped us to feel confident that we can get pregnant again. Why are we not going further medically?? We honestly don't have a easy answer. Every time we discuss adoption we consider exhausting the medical route first but just don't feel right about it. We finally felt like God has a child out there for us and that He wants us to search for that child through adoption and now is that time.

#2 - Will you keep trying to have your own biological child? The answer is yes. Just because we are not taking medical measures to do it doesn't mean we wont continue to pray for a little miracle and no we don't need hotel stays and more alone time. Although that is wonderful for any hard working parent. We believe Gods timing is the key and a better diet, less stress, and a world full of no obstacles could help;)

#3 - You aren't fostering are you?  Do you know how hard that is going to be on Tyler? Yes and Yes! Adoption in general is going to be hard on Tyler and right now we feel like fostering might be the right fit for our family. There is no perfect formula.  We know there is risk in it all.  But there is also a risk having a child.  So we are trusting that the Lord has this!
