Life Without A Plan: Finding Joy Through the Unexpected

"Life Without a Plan: Finding Joy Through the Unexpected" is a raw, heartfelt, and ultimately hopeful memoir about the winding, emotional road to motherhood through adoption. Told with honesty, vulnerability, and warmth, this is the story of how one couple let go of the life they thought they would have and opened themselves up to a different kind of beauty.
From the quiet ache of infertility to the emotional rollercoaster of waiting, navigating birth parent connections, and embracing the unknown, this book captures the quiet moments that rarely make it into the spotlight, late-night feedings, whispered promises, a name on a birth certificate that changes everything.

But this is more than an adoption story. It's a love story; about becoming a mother, about the invisible threads that bind families, and about discovering joy not in the plan, but in its absence.

For anyone who's ever had to grieve the life they imagined and find the courage to step into the one unfolding in front of them, this memoir offers comfort, companionship, and the gentle reminder that sometimes, the most beautiful stories are the ones we never meant to write.
