Matt and Corinne here, and we have the immense joy of being able to bring two beautiful baby boys into our home. After 10 years of marriage and many discussions, we decided that we were ready to grow our family. Our years together helped to strengthen our relationship, learning to rely on each other especially as we moved far away from our families to pursue our careers. After "practicing" the family life with a couple of adopted dogs and a cat, we decided it was time to go for the real thing. We were called to adoption. Our hope is that by opening our home we can share the many blessings we have been granted in our lives. When we got the call that a birth mom had picked us, we were surprised. Then we found out it was twins, and we were even more surprised! The Birth Mom selected us because she felt that we were genuine in our profile book, and that's what we always try to be. The boys were born at 27 weeks gestation and considered very premature. Jacob spent over two months in the NICU and Noah is still there, working on getting healthy enough to come home. We had been traveling every weekend to visit the boys in the hospital and still visiting Noah as we can with Jacob home. Your contributions will help us provide these boys with everything they need and a happy, supportive, and loving home.
