Cory and Abby
We're looking to adopt a baby
Hello, we are Cory and Abby! We want to thank you for taking the time to read our story and learn more about us. Our story began online—we were both in transitions of life that kept us busy.
Abby had just graduated with her Bachelor of Science in Nursing and started her dream job, and Cory was working with a great company on the night shift. Funny enough, after connecting online, we learned that we lived close to each other and had a lot of mutual connections!
Our first date was at a breakfast diner because it was the only time Cory’s work schedule would allow. We talked for hours, and we both knew right away that this was “it.” We dated from April 2016 until we were engaged in November 2017 and married in September 2018.
At that time, both of us were advancing our careers, but we had always talked about growing our family both through adoption and biological pregnancy. In October 2020, we started trying to get pregnant. After two years of infertility treatment and a lot of prayer for wisdom and guidance, we both knew that our journey to parenthood would begin by welcoming a child into our hearts through adoption!
