Billy on his way home

Anna and Patrick found the adoption process to be the finest day of their lives. They were now welcoming a child to their home and were busy preparing their house to become child-friendly. The journey to adopting Billy was educational and informative. Adoption is usually very laborious and takes away all the mental energy from the parents-to-be.

However, the experience was different for this pair, for they were too excited to let the strain get the best of them. Moreover, their home was soon going to turn into a playhouse for their child, and they were delighted to have such a company in their lives.

Parenthood

Their lifelong dream of having a child was finally fulfilled when Billy came along. The newly found parenthood made them better human beings in general. They got highly fond of the kid, and Anna could barely stay away from his son after being brought home. Besides, they bonded very quickly, and Billy had already started calling Anna and Patrick, Mom and Dad.

Their joy seemed eternal with a child who could only be wished for. Anna, Patrick, and Billy made a family everyone wants to have, and their growing affection was inexplicable. Moreover, it was strange how fast Bill blended in with his new family, but he was equally grateful to have such caring parents.

The process of adoption

The process itself was tedious and needed full attention to having the baby of their dreams. Older kids aren’t preferred to be brought home for adoption and usually get left out from hope for their forever homes. Anna and Patrick had always wanted an infant who could go through all stages of life before their eyes.

And so, their extensive research on the topic of adoption helped them make the process relatively easy. The two partners hadn’t seen things coming as they began unfolding the mystery of parenthood. Undoubtedly, they were going to be great parents considering their dedication.

Running into their child

Anna and Patrick were halfway through reaching the room full of orphan babies when a small boy drew their attention. He was unlike any other kid because he had a charming demeanor that made him special. Nevertheless, the couple raised an eyebrow after knowing something that took them by utter surprise.

They couldn’t shun away the thought of this little kid who was all they were thinking about. He had a connection with the parents-to-be that surpassed common sense. Moreover, this extraordinary encounter stayed in their head, and they further began investigating the matter. What they noticed was dreadful.

Billy, a lucky charm

The young boy was named Billy and was quickly introduced to Anna and Patrick, who were delighted to make him their son. Seeing their considerable adoration for the kid, the social worker gave a description of Billy’s disastrous story. They were told that Billy’s mother had been in a car accident. This is why Billy was placed under child care protection with no immediate family member ready to take his custody.
They felt terrible for the small kid and wished for him a life that could make him grow into a mature adult. Moreover, their first meeting was enough to enchant them, and they didn’t want to look any further.

Love in the air

Lives for Anna and Patrick seemed bland without each other. They were completely in love and this growing affection knew no bounds. The two had already created enough memories to start daydreaming about. Their collective experiences were shared with zest and zeal.

Furthermore, seeing their lives intertwining rapidly, moving in together seemed the next best choice to opt for, and so they did. They began their journey in unison and enjoyed listening to music with coziness. Now, their love for each other was running through their veins. Life for them was nothing less than an answered prayer.

Clues hidden in actions

Declaration of their affection for each other was made through both words and actions. They lived up to their promises of keeping the spark of their love ignited despite their engagement with work. Most importantly, Anna and Patrick made sure to take time out of their busy days to be together.

They were truly inseparable, and Patrick saw in her a woman with who he wanted to have children. He felt Anna was the perfect fit for him. Therefore, with things already looking good for both of them, Patrick decided to ask Anna’s hand in marriage. He couldn’t have asked for more from life than Anna’s approval.

Two alternatives

Before getting a medical diagnosis for their problem, they had started going for a couple’s counseling to sort out their issue. The counselor asked them to change their sexual habits to increase their odds of conceiving a baby. To their dismay, they saw no tangible benefits from following the advice.

As a result, there were only two alternatives left, one of which was for Patrick to take the fertility pills, and the other less preferable option was “artificial insemination” or adoption. After opting for the medication, no results were seen. Adoption was the least favorable means of getting a baby for them.
