Adoption was always something we talked about, we knew that it would be a part of our story, but we never knew truly how amazing it would be. After trying to get pregnant with no luck, we felt God strongly calling us to stop fertility treatments and instead put our focus on adoption. The immediate peace I felt when we first reached out to Christian Adoption Consultants was like nothing I had ever experienced. After a couple emails back and forth all of my fears, worries, and questions were exchanged for joy, hope, and excitement! We signed up with CAC in December 2016 and quickly started our home study process and were ready to see situations mid-January! We quickly saw several situations and we had a true hope that someday soon we would be blessed with a baby in our arms!
After a few months of seeing situations, praying over them and presenting to a few, we got a call on a Thursday night in the beginning of May that we were MATCHED!! It was an unreal feeling of joy and excitement that someone chose us to be her baby’s parents, which is a surreal and humbling feeling. In the end, that birth mom chose last minute to parent her sweet baby girl. Our world was rocked and I began to question God’s plan in us adopting.
Literally 8 days later, we got a call asking us if we wanted to be parents TONIGHT?! A precious baby boy had been born 6 weeks early across the country. After some time in prayer we said YES and flew out the next morning to meet our baby boy! God’s timing was PERFECT! He knew exactly what we needed even when we were confused and not trusting in His perfect plan. We are SO in love with our son, he is truly the biggest blessing of our lives! Adoption has changed our lives, it has made us parents, helped us to grow closer to God, and trust Him in new ways.
Working with CAC made a world of difference in making our adoption go so smoothly. I cannot imagine adopting without our consultant Leah’s help, guidance, and constant encouragement and prayers!
