Katie bought a new house in Colorado, started a new career and became an adoptive mother after her husband left her. Although she hadn’t planned on the sponsorship, her heart was inexplicably drawn to her, as she explained in her post on Love What Matters.
She listened to her heart and her intuition and moved forward, knowing it was the right thing to do.
In 2016, a four-day-old baby was taken to a local hospital. The ordeal of the unknown child changed the course of Katie’s life.
Katie took the baby in as a foster child and named him Grayson. Just under a year later, a judge terminated the parental rights of Grayson’s parents, so I was finally able to adopt Grayson when he was eleven months old.
Katie loved the life she led with Grayson. She also planned to adopt a second child when the time came. A phone call from a social worker sped up the time it took to make that decision.
A second baby boy was abandoned at the same hospital where Grayson was found. This time the baby was a girl.
Katie says her mind raced for a good ten minutes and she started calling all her friends and family. She said something inside that told her she had to say “yes” to her new family member.
