2010 - a year of research

2010 is a year of research. we turned over a new leaf with the mailing of our christmas card for '09, and went public with our mission to adopt. we've been trying to start a family for almost 6 years now. in some ways it seems like its been a terribly long road, and in some ways it seems like it was just yesterday when we got the first positive pregnancy test. the almost 6 years of our life when we struggled to have a baby of our own became all consuming and culminated in a seemingly sad year for '09. in one way it was deeply depressing because, despite trying, we never conceived in '09, even with infertility treatments. however, in another way it was amazingly wonderful that will and i ended up on the same page and decided that the path for our life is adoption.
