New Friendships

Since we started our adoption journey in February, we have met so many wonderful people. People who have adopted, people who are somewhere along the process like us, and people who have an interest in adoption. Since we have chosen to adopt from another country, it is extremely important to us to help keep the Filipino culture alive for our child. One of the most exciting things along our journey is that we have met a wonderful group of Filipino people from our community who are excited for us and willing to help us. They have answered our cultural questions, introduced us to some Filipino foods, and welcomed us into their homes. What wonderful people and a wonderful connection for our child to his or her culture. We just got home a little awhile ago from a cookout at one of their homes. It was a wonderful evening. We feel so blessed to have met some new friends. Adoption is a wonderful thing in so many ways. Meeting new friends is just one of many blessings.
