In June of 2005, we were lucky enough to be picked by a birth mother who was expecting a baby boy in August. We were able to meet her and her daughter before Ethan was born. We had the awesome experience of being able to hold him when he was just hours old and until we brought him home from the hospital, we were there taking care of him and bonding with him. We will forever be grateful for the gift his birth mother gave us to become his parents.
We brought Ethan home when he was just 5 days old. My family was waiting at the house and we had quite the Welcome Home celebration. A few days later, Jason's sister Stacey came by before she went back to school to see her newest nephew. We had fun adjusting to the schedule of a newborn and Jason was wonderful in helping out with the late night feedings.
Ethan has brought so much joy into our lives. We enjoy being his mom and dad and can't till the day when we can adopt another baby because we know that Ethan will be such a great Big Brother!
