Stork Central Posted April 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 Eleven months ago, thirteen couples from across the U.S. and Germany gathered in San Antonio to pursue a dream. Some had adopted before and were seeking siblings for their children. Others were first-timers, fresh off the treadmill of fertility treatment. One had endured the insult of being told his "swimmers" held all the reproductive potential of frozen peas. Another had undergone invitro, producing just one embryo, whom they named, but "SeaBiscuit," regrettably, failed to finish the race. Each couple all came from different backgrounds and had different stories, but they shared one common goal: that of parenting. Today, the final chapter of the story of the PeaBiscuits, 5/05 has been written, with the placement of a 6 lb., 13 oz. baby girl with our againers from Arizona. Their journey had twists and turns they'd not foreseen. Twice, they matched with cases they later decided weren't right for them, but as a result, those babes found their perfect homes, and subsequently, our newest family was right where they needed to be when the daughter of their dreams was finally born. Everything does happen for a reason, even when we can't see it at the time (and seeing their baby girl in their arms now is proof positive that all's well that ends well!) Congratulations, all. The pod is now filled!! May our all our little peas and their mommies and their daddies live happily ever after, and may their birthmommas and birthpapas be at sweet peace with their decisions, as well.
