I was in the SC3 ward with Melissa a long time ago. She has this posted in her blog and I'm trying to help by getting her message out. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers! We are hoping that something wonderful happens for them very soon!!
Hello to all of our family and friends. As you may know, we are in the adoption process with LDS Family Services. After a friend at work reminded me of the power of the internet I felt I should ask all our friends and family to help in our efforts to begin our family. Over 80% of birth families find their couple through the internet.What we are asking for is scary, it makes us feel a little bit vulnerable and yet we feel very strongly in doing so...we are asking you to help us spread the word of who we are and our desires for an eternal family. Derrick and I have been married almost eight years and we are eagerly awaiting the arrival of a sweet spirit whom we can love, spoil, teach and cherish; we cannot do that without a self-less birthmother and a birth-family. We know this is a delicate and often very difficult situation for everyone involved, but we believe in adoption and the miracle it brings into the lives of the families it touches.Please be mindful of us and keep your ears open! I am attaching our adoption links, please look at them and then pass them along to anyone and everyone that you may be comfortable sharing our message with. It is a scary thing to feel so vulnerable, yet we know this is what our Heavenly Father wants and expects us to do. Thank you so much. Your love and support means the world to us and strengthens us every day!Derrick and Melissaour adoption blog: http://derrickandmelissa.blogspot.com/our LDS Family Services profile: https://www.beta.itsaboutlove.org/ial/profiles/17925297/ourMessage.jsfour email address: dmhawk01@msn.com

Paula... THANK YOU so much. Of course I remember you! I "secretly" check your blog regularly. You have an adorable family. I really can't even thank you enough for putting that on for us. We have been waiting for seven and a half years for our baby to come and have struggles with infertility, miscarriages and three failed adoptions. It has definately been a rollercoaster and we appreciate any help and parayers we are able to get. I hope all is well. Keep in touch and tell everyone hi for me!
