Thank you Katie, for using your platform to share such powerful and meaningful stories. I truly enjoy reading all your articles — each one teaches something valuable. I'm especially grateful for how openly you share your family's journey. Your honesty and your kids' experiences are educating and inspiring so many. I'm lucky to know you all!
As a mom to both an adopted child and another “chosen” child—who was too old to be legally adopted but is part of our family in every way—I deeply relate to this. From the moment we shared that we were pursuing adoption, even though we already had biological children and could have had more, the questions began. People were curious about our motives and often projected their own fears and misconceptions about adoption onto us. But like you, I believe in leading with grace and an open heart. We’re creating the family we envisioned—rooted in love and connection—and I’m so proud to see our children, now older, carrying those values forward. And we are so grateful to be on this journey alongside families like yours!
