She is so smart and funny and. I have...

Why Adoption? – Unraveled by Grace
https://unraveledbygrace.wordpress.com/2014/03/14/why-adoption
March 14, 2014. May 10, 2016. Special guest post from my husband, Bryan. It’s a question that inevitably gets asked, one way or another, every time we tell someone we are adopting.

Chronicling our journey to adopt our daughter from India. How You Can Help. Friday, September 18, 2015. An Empty Chair No More. On September 9, 2013, I posted this picture of the empty rocking chair in my daughter's room. I wrote from a lost and confused heart that our adoption had been stalled and that we had little understanding as to why. I only knew that the hopes I had that this chair would be holding my daughter before her third birthday felt very fragile and empty. We were stuck. January 25, 2013.
