Join the Shannon Family's Adoption Journey

We are the Shannon Family!

For over the last year, we felt in our hearts that it was finally time for baby Shannon number three. After six months, we had our first positive pregnancy test. We were overwhelmed with joy but that was soon overshadowed with loss and trauma of that precious life.

From there, we had fertility testing done. I found out that I have borderline PCOS and Chris’s labs came back normal. We knew that IUI/IVF was not a part of our journey. God has already blessed us with two beautiful children, an opportunity that most don’t even get or have. That is when we looked and prayed about adoption. We have so much to offer and so much love as a family to give. We have recently been accepted into an adoption agency and have begun the process to complete our family.

As you can imagine adoption is expensive and on average, adoption-related cost is upwards of $50,000+, which leads us here. We are using this platform to help us alleviate some of the financial burden and invite you to be part of our journey in a tangible way.

If you feel led to contribute financially, any amount would be a true blessing. We want to be transparent with what the adoption costs cover:

- Adoption agency fees

- Legal and court costs

- Home study fees

- Birth mother medical/living expenses

- Travel and lodging expenses

We are truly thankful for any support you can offer, whether it’s a donation, a prayer, or sharing our story. Your love and encouragement mean more to us than you can imagine as we embark on this journey. We’ve decided the remaining funds that are not used for this process will be donated to a local charity or be paid forward to another family wanting to adopt.

Thank you for being a part of the Shannon Family Adoption Journey

With love,

The Shannon Family
