In this heartfelt episode, Sarah shares the emotional journey she and her husband took as they followed a deep calling to adopt an older child. Along the way, they experienced two unexpected pregnancies—both ending in miscarriage just weeks apart. Through the heartbreak, hope, and healing, Sarah discovered a powerful truth: everyone’s path to family is different, and no one should have to live up to someone else’s expectations. This episode is a moving reminder that there is no one “right” way to build a family—and that choosing your own way is more than enough.
