Having a child is not always as simple as wishing, and to show all those couples who can spend years trying, without getting it. Today we bring you the story of one of those couples, who pursued her dream of being parents finding so many pitfalls along the way that, when it finally seemed like she was defeated, that they would have an adopted baby, they preferred not to notify anyone In the end, everything was twisting again.
That is how the great day came and when they finally had their daughter in their arms they decided to present it to all their relatives, who were stunned. They decided to record it, both to have it as a souvenir, and to show the world that the arrival of an adopted baby can be as exciting as that of a biological baby.
A tortuous journey to fatherhood
There are many couples who suffer a lot until they become parents. There are many who live various joys, with hope, and also take various disappointments, on a path that can be very hard.
In the case that we explain today, that of Lacey Y Banks FarrisIt all started in 2011, when they began to actively seek a pregnancy. Fifteen months later her dream was fulfilled and Lacey became pregnant, but what was all joy and hope suddenly vanished when at 20 weeks gestation they lost the baby. A girl they called Poppy.
From that moment they kept trying artificial insemination, with two attempts that were unsuccessful.
They decided to opt for adoption, and in 2015 they received the happy news that they had been selected to adopt the baby of a girl who was pregnant but did not want to be a mother. However, at the last moment they changed their minds and the parents took care of the child.
After so many hopes, joys, to announce to the families that they would already have the baby and that this moment would never come, they chose to be more cautious and avoid giving news that perhaps they would not be fulfilled later. That's why they thought that if they were selected again for adoption, they wouldn't say anything until they had the baby in their arms.
And Christmas brought them a precious gift
On the same Christmas day of 2015 they met with the biological parents of Finley, who had decided to give their daughter up for adoption. From that day they were able to follow the pregnancy and medical visits, and they kept everything secret until 10 days after Finley was born.
That day Lacey Y Banks, who live in California, traveled with the girl to Tennesse, Alabama and Arizona to introduce the new and expected member of the small family to their new grandparents, uncles, etc.
The result? This beautiful video that at least has got me excited. And to be a father you don't have to be the biological father: it is love, The responsability Y the dedication what makes one worthy of being the father of a baby. Do not you think?
