Last but not least! Thinking our family was complete, we were surprised when we felt the prompting to find one more son. Eli arrived just six months after we applied for adoption, but it felt like a lifetime. We applied with at least six adoption agencies in hopes of finding him quickly. We experienced five failed placements before finding Eli. The loss of those five babies was horrible. We started to lose hope that we would truly find our missing son. The day we held our Eli knowing he would be ours forever was sure bliss. A sense of completion filled Mary Ann for the first time in 18 years.
