Emily and her husband Ant have been working for years to have a child, or children, come live in their home in Norristown. They’ve been through the trainings, background checks and home inspections. They’ve been so close.

Through it all, Emily says they’ve grown in grace and maturity, as individuals and as a couple. I am in awe of her tenacity and her desire to nurture; to share, as she says, the tenderness and the hardness of life… with a child.

Listen to our interview and share Emily’s resources if you or someone you know is interested in fostering or adopting. Thank you, Emily, for sharing the ups and downs of your journey!
