Welcome

Jesse and Kate (and Epiphany!) are thankful that you are here. We are starting the adoption process in our home state of Idaho and we wanted to keep our friends updated on our process. We are still working on our home study. We are also trying to raise some more funds. The average cost of a domestic adoption in Idaho is about $24,000. We have about half of that. If you are interested in donating, more information will be coming soon. Please be praying that the whole process will go smoothly. Thanks!

Help Support Our Adoption

February 2022 We have been matched! Read More Here Our current need is donations for travel and legal fees. The baby boy is about 6 hours away and so Jesse is travelling every weekend to see Kate and the baby. The baby is in the NICU and he will be there until about middle of April. So Jesse will be travelling about 10 times over the next few months. Helping cover the travel fees would be a great blessing to us. We estimate travel fees to be $1000. To finalize the adoption we will need to hire a lawyer to set up all the paperwork for the court. This will happen in about 10-12 months. We are estimating that legal fees will be about $2000. We are very thankful for all the support we have received. Thanks to all the many donations!

But walking into a hospital is like walking into a strange world. Everyone is dressed in greens and blues, lots of new gadgets that beep, lots of different codes to give to get through, automatic doors that have to be opened from the inside. But everyone is cheerful. People were very kind to us. The NICU is on the second floor. We had to go through a Covid checkpoint at the hospital entrance but it was super easy. Our caseworker was with us. We then rode the elevator up to the second floor. We walked through a long hallway to the NICU. On the walls are lots of pictures of NICU babies who were born early and have now grown up. Each one is a picture of the little tiny baby and the grown up child at 10 years old or 15 years old. They call it the wall of hope. I tried to imagine how small the little ba...
