‘A Love Like No Other’ Out Now!

When my husband and I decided to start a family, we knew that things were going to be a little bit complicated—we didn’t exactly have a uterus on hand to do the heavy lifting. We signed up with an adoption agency, made a brochure about ourselves to try and get picked by a birth mother, and waited.

Covid hit a few months later. About two weeks into quarantine, we got notified that a baby had been born and we had been selected. It was an exhilarating call that came at a scary time. And unfortunately, after three days with the baby, it didn’t work out. A few months later we had another failed adoption, and decided to pause on things while we recovered.

It was a sad time and we felt hopeless, but the pendulum swung in our favor. Out of the blue, a friend of a friend generously offered to give us her eggs. Surrogacy was something we hadn’t even considered. Though the process was complicated, it was a lot less fraught with anxiety than adoption had been. Another agency found us a wonderful surrogate, and after a lot of paperwork, we got underway.

From when we signed with the adoption agency to when our son was finally born, almost 4 years passed. Every day since then has been a dream come true—so much so that I had to write a book about it.

A Love Like No Other is a promise from two dads to their son—to play, to love, to laugh, to explore, and to be a family forever. I think it’s a great book for all kinds of families looking to show their children that love looks the same no matter who the parents are.
