We’re Adopting!

Have you ever fallen in love with a place you’ve been?  Maybe it was a city you visited or a cute little town.  For me, it was a country and the people in that country.  Eleven years ago, I flew across the world and for the very first time stepped foot in a country that I had barely heard of before, a country where I did not speak the language, did not know the people, had never eaten the food, and into a country that quickly found a very special place in my heart.

 Six months there turned into six years, and I found myself living and working in this amazing place.  Little did I know back in 2002 when I stepped out to fill a short term need, that this country would stay a part of me, that my time there would have such a huge role in shaping who I am, what I do, and how I view the world. 

Thailand is a place near and dear to my heart, so many people there that I love so dearly, a language that is now music to my ears, food that I crave, and the country where our first son or daughter has been born.  That’s right our son or daughter! 

Marc and I have had time together in this amazing place and he loves it too.  It was a pretty easy decision for us to decide that we wanted to adopt from Thailand and that’s exactly what we are doing!!  More info on where we are at in the process to come!
