Book Description

April 15, 2009
Nobody ever said creating a family was easy. For many adoptive and foster families, the journey begins with the pain of infertility and learning to cope with the unexpected. Whether you conceive your children the old-fashioned way or open your heart and home for the miracle of adoption, building a family takes faith, hard work, and a lot of love, but the joys of being together make it all worth it.

In Conceiving in the Heart you will meet families of all shapes and sizes. Their stories are different, but the feelings that bind them to each other are universal. Join them in their miraculous journeys to becoming forever families and be inspired by these accounts of ordinary people with an extraordinary ability to love.

Deana Coreen Kastello shares her own experience of adopting, as well as many others in this heartwarming and sincere tribute to adoption and foster care. This beautiful collection of scriptures, poems, and true stories reminds us all that there is more than one way to create a family.

This review is from: Conceiving in the Heart (Paperback)
My family is one of the families whose story is in this book, and I was so glad to be a part of something so heart-warming and touching. I, too, couldn't put it down as I started reading other stories !! I am ordering a copy for a woman who has become a good friend over the years, as she was a foster Mother to the three children I actually DID also adopt. She is now on her own journey and becoming frustrated at all of the No's. Please order this book and dont lose hope !! Take it from ME..Mom to 14...12 adopted from foster care...Oh yeah the first 7 in the book were joined by the 3 from Ohio and then their own 2 bio sibs who mom gave birth to AFTER they were adopted...making a sib group of 9 !! SO never lose hope..."When all of the No's become YES" !!

I was so touched by the stories in this book. I laughed, I cried, I want to adopt. It gave me a really good prospective of how fostering and adopting really is, instead of all the hype.
