BIG NEWS! This time it’s going to be a boy.

Remember these beautiful families? Pictured left is placing family David and Joanne, and on the right is adopting family Karissa, Nat and Lexi. Baby Hannah is being held by adopting mom, Karissa.

This a great picture of the beauty of embryo adoption, and open adoption as well. These two families have an open adoption with each other that works, and brings joy to all!

Now the really fun news, Karissa is expecting again, a brother to Hannah. It’s thrilling news!

There were two embryos placed with this family, and both are going to be able to be born and enjoy each other.

Psalm 127:3-5

3 Children are a heritage from the Lord,
offspring a reward from him.
4 Like arrows in the hands of a warrior
are children born in one’s youth.
5 Blessed is the man
whose quiver is full of them.
