He asked Katie if she was interested in fostering a child. Katie had experienced fertility issues in the past and had considered adoption so decided to find out more about fostering.
She started attending meetings about fostering and knew this was the path for her. She then went on to foster four children before taking the leap into adoption.

She called him Grayson and took him in; baby Grayson stayed with her for nearly 12 months and Katie fell in love with this little boy. After the court terminated the parents’ birth rights Katie adopted Grayson when he was 11 months old. As Katie settled into full-blown motherhood it wasn’t even two weeks before her caseworker called again and told her about a newborn girl who had been dropped off at the same hospital. Katie felt scared and overwhelmed by the prospect of taking in another baby but her instinct was telling her to take this baby girl in. “I know over the next 10 minutes and subsequent phone calls I made that afternoon, the phrase ‘I know I am crazy, but God is telling me to say ‘YES’ kept coming out of my mouth,” Katie said.

It was only a matter of hours before baby Hannah was brought to Katie’s house but it was when Katie was looking at Hannah’s hospital bracelet did she make a startling discovery.
