Some of us struggle to tell our story. Some of us shout it from the rooftops. Either way, it’s good to share! ———————– I’m terrible with words and paper. It takes me hours and tons of erasing because I didn’t spell something right or forgot this or that. Or I over write. After having my […]

We heard from this surrogate earlier this year, but now that her journey is complete I wanted to share her full story. The good, the bad, the beautiful. —————————————- I have always loved children.  I became a social worker, in part, because I love children.  They are our future, and the success of our world […]

This month we have a feature story sharing what being a surrogate means to them. What does surrogacy mean to you? —————————————- Welcome to the feature story that I always thought I wouldn’t do because my journey was so short and sweet. I never know how to describe my story from beginning to end for […]

Hold on for a wild ride!  I had always wanted to be a surrogate. I had 4 amazing pregnancies, no miscarriages and I loved being pregnant. I had met Amber going on a mountain climb with my church group and we started the conversation there. Fast forward 5 years later when I had the conversation […]

We may have had full term healthy pregnancies for our own children and we make these promises of doing the same for these Intended Parents….but sometimes Mother Nature takes a course of her own. Babies come early and plans change. But the journey to building these families is always beautiful! ———————————-   To put my […]

The screening part to becoming a surrogate can go many different ways, ie. quick and simple, long and dragging, or slowly but surely. Whichever way it goes you have to trust the process. We do everything we can to make sure things run smoothly with no delays. Sometimes though, the world just has different plans. […]

This month’s story comes from a surrogate who’s journey ended a little earlier than expected, but still turned out to be a wonderful, happy ending! While things may not always go as planned, the journey is still forever remembered and cherished. ———————————- My all time favorite metaphor is, “Life is a Journey.” In June of […]
