We're adopting!

We are pursing the adoption of a little boy or girl from India! Immy and Birdie are so excited to become big (and bigger) sisters, and we are thrilled to add another Tatum to our family soon! We've felt called to adopt from the start of our marriage nearly 8 years ago, and are so excited to finally feel that that time is now!

The adoption process is LONG (18-24 months on average) and we are trusting God and leaning on our community to help support us as we go. We hope you'll consider supporting us on this journey to become the parents of one more sweet little one, whom we already love in our hearts.

Our costs are coming in about four major groupings:

1. Application & Home Study: ~$7,000

2. CARA (India's orphan database) Registration: ~$10,800

3. Referral Acceptance (we are matched with a child!): ~$11,000

4. Travel to bring him or her home!: ~$7,000 - $15,000
