What a sweet and loving announcement. It sounds as though these families will forever cherish the love, bonds and ties that brought them together and will lead them forward. May this only be the beginning of a lifelong committment!

Blessings to all! Welcome Sydney!! Praying for peace for birthfamilies in the days that lie ahead!

It's so hard to make sense of news like this. Praying for peace, comfort and understanding. Praying that Glenn feels the love and support of all those around him whom are lifting him up.

What wonderful news Darren and Kay!!! I know you both have waited for this day through many ups and downs. I am blissfully happy for you!

Welcome!! Hope you find the wealth of knowledge helpful to you! I found the information very inspiring when I began "snooping" around the forum~~~~ !!!

WOW, so much activity has happened this month!! Congratulations Glenn and Dyna on the birth of your son. We have been thinking of you and your sweetheart and are so happy to hear the wonderful news!!! Congratulations Mark and Laurie!!! Your daughters are beautiful! Life is such a blessing!!

Dan, I think you have a gift at expressing your feelings and putting them into words!! Your family is truely blessed!!

Welcome Ethan!!! You are loved by so many people! This day has been long awaited. As we rejoice may we continue to lift up Billie and remind her that she will always be part of this precious boy's life!

I think we were one of "those" selfish folks when we came to orientation. We wanted to know all about the birthparents but wanted the information they knew about us to be limited. Even after orientation we were somewhat reserved. Once we started talking to Payton's birthmother, we shared everything about us! We did a complete 360 ! Brooke has come to visit all of us in our home twice now! We feel truely blessed to be able to share the love of this sweet little girl. I guess the purpose to this post is to really dig deep into your heart when deciding what you are open to. If you put some of your fears and insecurities aside, you just might open yourself up to endless possiblities. Awaiting you is a bountiful love that can not be described by words! Just my thoughts for the topic!

What a beautiful announcement. Heartfelt wishes to all!!

Erin and James, Hoping that you find the avenue to expanding your family that is right for you! Good luck on your journey and I hope you find peace and renewed energy to find the agency that fits your family best!!

Welcome to the world little one!!! May God watch over you and your families!

Welcome Erin and James!! Glad that you found Abrazo, hoping you hear more news soon (especially hoping your application wasn't on that truck)!!

Oh, these notes tug at my heart!! I keep praying for God to let me know if our family should be a family of 3 or 4. We don't have any of our stuff current right now ! Praying for this little one to be welcomed into an family soon!

Hooray Gramma Sharron! So happy you are feeling better. I second Donna, we need pictures.

Congratulations Hope and Joel! Stunning family photo in the gallery! We are so happy for your family!

Congratulations to all the new families formed through Abrazo!

Congratulations to the newest family formed today!!!!

Natalie, I sent you a PM!! We would love to get together with ya'll. I'm sure Andrea would love to as well. I'm so happy you live in the same town as we do (even though you are moving soon).

Welcome to the forum Natalie! I live in Arlington, TX. Andrea and I get our kiddos together and would love for ya'll to join us! Our daughter is 13 months old too! Good luck on the move, moving is never fun but it is exciting once you get settled in.

Congratulations of becoming a family of four!!!! Many blessings to come!

Welcome to the forum TRACEB, wishing you much happiness throughout your adoption journey!!!!

I remember reading one of these posts right before our orientation................. we went to orientation in July, finished homestudy and physicals at the beginning of August and were matched on Labor Day!!!!! It can happen quickly !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So get those applications filled out and mailed in.

Blessings to the newly formed family!! Congratulations !

I love this thread and I hate this thread at the same time. Every nursery note posted breaks my heart. I wish Abrazo had a PIW that would welcome these 2 special people into their lives.
