Alana's Adoption Movie

A tradition of our family is to create a video of their birth (G-rated!). Ever since we started the adoption process I put a lot of thought into how exactly to produce a birth video since I would, most likely, not have footage of the birth mother being pregnant, nor would I have footage of our adopted child's first moments of life.

Well, we adopted last May 27th and life has been a blur since then. This past week I finally had the time in the evenings to stop and edit together a short, 4-minute video of the story of the adoption of Alana Michelle.

Here it is.



We are still in need of $2,000.00 to finalize Alana's adoption. Would you please consider a donation of any size? You can use the link to the right and donate securely through PayPal. Thank you so much!

  2. You have many treasures in heaven waiting for you there. There is another one for you here too.

    We have such an amazing relationship with Alana's birth mother. She is a phenomenal woman and I have profound respect for her.

    Precious. That is the word most commonly used to describe her. It is also the meaning of "Alana". God knows how to name his babies.
