In this episode, we review the adoption book
The Eye of Adoption: the true story of my turbulent wait for a baby by Jody Dyer.
Jody is not only an author, but she’s a school teacher and more importantly a mother of two children – one biological and one adopted. She and her husband Jeff went through the gauntlet to add a second child to their family.
The Eye of Adoption is all about their journey from infertility to building their family through domestic infant adoption. Jody shares her heart, her humor, and a lot of detail about her story.
Folks – I highly recommend this book! I read it in 2 days and I’ve already put
my 5 star review up on Amazon! No matter where you are in the process, this is an adoption book you have to read.
