After 3 Boys, We Gave Up Our Dream of a Daughter—Then My Husband Called Me to the Hospital and Said, “There’s a Baby Here”
That was my first lesson in the difference between emotional decisions and actual process.
We had said yes.
The hospital knew we were willing.
The child-welfare worker had our information.
But that did not mean someone simply handed us a newborn and wished us luck.
Background checks had to clear.
Our home needed to be seen.
Basic safety arrangements were reviewed.
