Hello all! My wife and I are very pleased to announce the adoption of our first child. The story goes like this.
We know of a young lady who found herself pregnant and scared. We reached out to her in an effort to convince her that abortion is not the answer to her "problem". She acknowledged reciept of my wife's message, but that was it... until about 6 weeks later. The birth mother reached out to us the week before Christmas and invited us to come over and talk with her. Her comments were that the abortion never happened because of circumstances beyond her control. We explained to her that we had been praying for her, and her little baby and that God himself has intervened on that baby's behalf. At this point, she was beyond pursuing abortion and offered to give us the baby. We were, and still are thrilled! The birth mother explained that she couldn't have another child and thought we were the ideal candidates for this child.
The birth mother is a single mom with one child already and wants to make sure this next child is placed in a loving family that will provide the things which she cannot.
So here we are, about 11 weeks away from our due date (early May). We are already going wide open trying to get all of our paperwork and legal stuff done, but we could really use some help financially. We are working on a few options to help, and anything recieved here would be a tremendous blessing.
Thanks for bringing "Baby Allen" Home. -the Allens
