Fellow townie, Central Maroon and thoughtful, "I need to sleep on it," personality, Devin Lietz, talks about her no-second-guesses needed road to adoption. The road, however, had a few false starts. 

 Listen as this former social worker details her process and decision to adopt rather than pursue other interventions. Devin always had adoption in the back of her mind as she married and then started "trying" to get pregnant. A miscarriage led her and her husband to believe getting pregnant may be more complicated than expected. Adoption was their next step to finding baby Jane, her biological mom and some other potential bio moms that never came to fruition-startlingly common, Devin explains. Devin's love and adoration for her now toddler fills this episode as she only sees Jane as nothing else than her precious baby girl.
