The adoption journey has shown us the true strength of our union and reinforced the importance of mutual determination and support. We approached the process with an unspoken but firm resolve to hold each other's hands through the highs and lows, which helped us stay focused on our joint goal - expanding our family.
Becoming parents also made us even more appreciative of one another's strengths. Seeing my partner in action during the newborn stage, competently caring for our child, was incredibly attractive! It reinforced that we make a great team, each bringing something different to the table.
If there's one thing I've learned, it's that adopting together can either make or break a relationship. Fortunately, ours has only grown stronger!
