Lynn and Mike were sitting on the couch going through the adoption process when Lynn’s phone beeped. 

Lynn: Oh, it's a message from my friend who just adopted a girl earlier this year. I can’t wait to hear more about her journey. 

Mike: (smiling) Yeah, that’s great. I wish we could fast forward to the part where we have a daughter of our own.

Lynn: (sighs) I don't know if I'm ready for that yet. It's a whole new experience.

Mike: I understand, but I really believe we’ll be great parents.

Lynn: Yeah, I agree. It's just nerve-wracking, you know? We have some control over how we raise a child, but so much of it is random.

Mike: That's true. But we can be prepared for anything that comes our way. 

Lynn: (nodding in agreement) I suppose. 

Mike: Speaking of being prepared, I was thinking, we should start discussing how our lives will change once we have a child.

Lynn: (surprised) What do you mean?

Mike: Well, we’ll probably have to adjust our schedules around a child's needs. We won't be able to do everything we do now, like go out at night or take vacations on spontaneous whims.

Lynn: Yeah, that's true. We'll have to set boundaries and limits.

Mike: (nodding) Also, we'll have to make more permanent decisions. We already own a house, but if we have to move because of work, it could be more difficult with a kid.

Lynn: (understanding) I see that. It's going to take a lot of planning and foresight. I want to make sure we have a stable and loving environment for our child.

Mike: (smiling) I know. And we'll figure it out. Together.

Lynn: (smiling back) Absolutely. It's going to be a rollercoaster, but with each other by our side, we get to ride it out.

Couple: *sitting on the couch in their living room*
Partner 1: Hey, so I've been thinking about something lately and I wanted to talk to you about it.
Partner 2: What's up?
Partner 1: I think we should adopt a child.
Partner 2: *pauses for a moment before responding* Adopt a child? Are you serious?
Partner 1: Yeah, I am. I don't know, I just feel like we have a lot of love to give and there are so many kids out there who need a home.
Partner 2: I mean, I get that. But, are we really ready for this? We have busy jobs, we travel a lot. Plus, do we know anything about raising a child?
Partner 1: I think we can figure it out. And as for our jobs and lifestyle, we can make adjustments. Plus, we can take parenting classes and read up on it.
Partner 2: I'm nervous, though. What if we mess up? And what if our child never really feels like they're truly ours?
Partner 1: Those are valid fears. But we can do this, together. We'll figure it out. And as for the child feeling like they're not really ours, I think it's up to us to make them feel loved and accepted. Family is about more than just blood.
Partner 2: Okay, you're right. Let's do this. Where do we even start?
Partner 1: I don't know yet, but we'll figure it out. Let's start looking into it and see what the process is like.
Several months later...
Couple: *sitting on couch with paperwork surrounding them*
Partner 2: *sighs* This feels like so much. Fingerprinting, background checks, home studies...it's overwhelming.
Partner 1: I know, but we can do this. We're almost there. Plus, think about how amazing it'll be when we get matched with our child.
Partner 2: *smiling* You're right. It'll be worth it.
A few more months later...
Couple: *sitting with a social worker*
Social Worker: *smiling* I'm happy to say that we've found a child that we think would be a great fit for you two. Would you like to see their profile?
Couple: *excitedly* Yes!
Social Worker: *hands them a file*
Couple: *reading, tears streaming down their faces*
Partner 1: I can't believe this is actually happening.
Partner 2: *nodding* Me neither. We're going to be parents.
Several months later...
Couple: *sitting in their living room with a baby*
Partner 2: *yawning* I don't think I've ever been this tired in my life.
Partner 1: *laughs* I know, right? But look at them, they're worth it.
Partner 2: Definitely. I'm so happy we did this.
Partner 1: Me too. We're going to be great parents.
Partner 2: *smiling* Yeah, we are.
