Hoping to adopt

Several months ago I posted my first ever button on my blog. It's right there on the left.
 
Rachel and Ryan are the best of the best. I met Rachel four years ago in Buffalo when they moved there for her husband to attend dental school. I was serving as the president of our ward relief society, which is a service organization of women in our church. She immediately came in and made a huge difference. Visiting housebound women and then calling me to tell me how they were doing. Picking up a Deborah every Sunday who had suffered a stroke and couldn't drive but was recently baptized and wanted to be at church. She was every president's dream visiting teacher (yeah, it's a mormon word. It means she drives around visiting and teaching assigned women in their home on a monthly basis.) She became these women's friend. 

She also quickly became mine and was always the one teaching me. One thing I remember about her is she is always telling me she loves my big crazy family and wants to have one just like it someday.
Rachel is a high school English teacher and Ryan is a few months shy of being a real dentist. They are in love. They have fun together everyday, despite the fact that they have a deep sorrow as they continue to wait to become parents. But together they are a rock. Full of patience and faith that someday they will be parents. They are just waiting and waiting for someone to choose them. I would like to vouch for these people and their worthiness to raise awesome children.  If you know of anyone who is looking for adoptive parents to provide a fun. . . loving. . .  exciting. . . educational. . .  and faith filled home for their child - Please tell them about Rachel and Ryan. These people need to be parenting! Read their blog and I know you will agree.    The blog:   fyi on Rach and Ry
