I think we still had a week left on our Airbnb, and we just said, keep it. Just, we're leaving.
We're so excited. We get in the car. We get on the road. I mean, we were hit the road, dude. We were like out of there.
And it's... He stayed in the slow lane like a grandpa.
Yeah, he hated the car seat.
Yep. It's all our friends. I think we're waiting at our house when we got there, right? We had all of our friends there. My dad, yeah, he came down. My sister was there. It was great. Yeah, so that's kind of how it happened.

When you get up here, you are going to have to sit down with Tara. You're going to have to pretend that you know nothing.
So Tara, you know, when we got into Detroit, I text her and was like, we're here. And she's like, yay, you know. And so her plan was for the following day for us to meet Tara and our birth parents in Port Huron at a restaurant.
She said, oh, I can't get a hold of her. She won't answer.
Yeah.
So then we go back into panic mode. I'm a mess, you know, crying, don't know what to do. We had not slept. We were running on fumes.
Julie Falkenberry. And so that name stuck in my head. That night when we were at our Airbnb, I sent her a message. I was like, hey, just kind of fishing, you know, hey, you know, we're with Tara Lee, you know, we're here in Michigan or whatever. And she immediately, you know, sent me a message back and was like, can I call you? But I don't want to call you alone.
I want to have my friend Courtney on the phone.
I had to. I had to. I didn't know what was going on. I had to know. They call me. I am in the dining room pacing around the kitchen table. I'm on the phone with these two women.
She whispered to me and said, you know you still have a balance due to me.
God, I'm choking up. Like, I don't know why I'm so emotional about this.
Sorry, give me a minute. This just brings up a lot. I'm sorry.
We started trying right after we got married to have a baby and it didn't happen. And so I went to the fertility doctor and we went through two rounds and I emotionally could not do it. The second one was brutal.
So we started the adoption journey.
The way that this process works with the adoption. So we created a book on Shutterfly with just very basic information about us, you know, pictures of the house that we live in and our dogs and Teresa works for a university.
But we were with them for 18 months and we never got, you know, a match or even our profile presented. Why is it taking so long? Why will nobody choose us? Like, what's wrong with us?
