I don’t know precisely when Ione started talking about “Baby Brother/Baby Sister” but they have been part of her daily banter. I love it. I truly love her love for her sibling and she hasn’t even met them yet. She just knows they are going to make her a big sister and that is going to be the best!

Although, at first I was worried. We were going through fertility and then pregnancy problems. I thought “what if.” What we aren’t able to give her a baby brother or baby sister? What if we don’t have a baby? What if we start adoption and we aren’t chosen? What if? What if? What if?

Well, now that we’re on the right path toward finding Ione’s baby brother or baby sister through open adoption, I feel confident Ione will grow up as a big sister and one of the best.

We can’t wait for you to join our family, “Baby Brother/Baby Sister”.
