Their mothers, Julia and Carol, admire their work and are filled with pride. Talking to people, Lupe realized that not everyone knew families with two mothers, and, when they did, many didn't know what two women can do to have children. They then decided to gather everything they knew, did research, interviewed their friends, and wrote a guide to help children (and adults) understand how this can be done!

Language: English 

Independently published, 2022. 

24 p. : col. ill. ; cm. 

ISBN: 9798407999010 

Summary: This book is designed to help parents introduce information to their children about how they were conceived. It is up to every parent to make that decision on whether or whether not to tell their child they were conceived with a sperm donor. If the parents do decide to tell their child, the next step is figuring out how. This book helps start that process by introducing the information in a storybook form. By introducing it this way it allows the child to be able to tie the ideas together with a visual understanding and be told that they truly were a gift. Sperm donation is nothing to be ashamed of and it’s important the children know they are no different than any other child. Every child is a gift to be cherished.

Summary: An Angel Gave Us Our Angel is a book written for children to help better understand the loss of a sibling through miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant loss via a surrogate. The mother of this book cannot have children on her own, so the family will “borrow a belly” to allow their baby to grow. This is not always the most straightforward subject for young children to understand, so the book makes it simple to learn about surrogacy/gestational carriers and battle through the unthinkable - infant loss.
