Inside a Sibling Surrogacy: Their Journey Begins Again

When Lisa and Aaron McDonnell began their first surrogacy journey, they never imagined they'd be back here — years later, starting again with the same surrogate who made them parents the first time.

In this heartfelt conversation, host Whitney Hall sits down with Lisa and Aaron to talk about what it's like to grow your family through surrogacy twice — and with the same person who helped bring your first child into the world.

They share the emotions, faith, and gratitude that led them to say yes again, the lessons they've carried from their first journey with Claire, and what it means to build a family grounded in love, trust, and hope.

If you've ever wondered what surrogacy really looks like — emotionally and relationally — this story will remind you that family isn't defined by biology alone, but by the people who choose to create it together.
