One Yes at a Time is one family’s origin story of taking risks together. By saying yes to two open adoptions, Susan Strong and her husband stepped into the unknown of adoptive parenting with eagerness but also absolutely blind to what came next. Over time, they learned to let go of control and trust the process, eventually building a beautiful life for themselves and their children.
This book is not just a memoir of one family’s unusual beginning. It is the story of family itself and a reminder that love is something we have to practice each and every day. It is an invitation to see the world a little more unconventionally, to step out into that new and daring adventure that requires trust. Saying yes gets easier with time, even when it means doing the hard thing.
