Summary

In this episode, Chalene talks with close friends, Scott and Shaun T Blokker — who have been married for over 10 years. They share their entire story: how they both came out to their families, how they met, fell in love, and decided to become parents. As it is for many gay couples, becoming parents can be quite the journey, and it was no different for Shaun and Scott. They take you step by step through their surrogacy journey: from picking egg donors to choosing potential surrogate mothers to, ultimately, welcoming their 2 beautiful sons into the world. Spanning several years, their journey was filled with heartbreak and stress, but, in the end... triumph and great joy!
