WOW! An Everlasting Angel Starts Pre-K in the Fall!

Thank you, Tracy and Brant for sending us an update on Brody! Tracy and Brant adopted Brody with Everlasting and he is growing up to be a handsome and bright young man. Tracy tells us Brody loves to dance and put on concerts for his parents, has a great imagination and loves to explore. He also has a little cousin who he loves to call his sister. Brody starts Pre-K in the fall and we couldn’t be happier to hear that he and his parents are doing well!

Happy Father’s Day from Evie!

In honor of Father’s Day, parents Ruth and Andrew shared this photo of their kids and their daddy! He looks so proud with his two bundles of joy. Ruth and Andrew adopted Evie through Everlasting Adoptions, and are so excited to share another Father’s day with her and her brother, Seth. Read more about their adoption journey here! It’s truly unique and inspiring.

Their Precious Gift is Now 18 Months – Baby Girl Evelyn

We are so thrilled to hear that Evelyn is 18 months old and doing GREAT. Her adorable personality is loved by everyone she encounters and she has developed quite the personality! Her mom, Ruth, says she enjoys parties with her friends, playing with her iPhone (which she can operate flawlessly), puppies and swimming. She is adorable and looks so happy to be with such an amazing family. Thank you, Ruth, for sending this update!

A Crawling, Laughing and Smiling Update!

Thank you Tiffany for sending us this wonderful update on precious baby Max!

Message from Tiffany:

“I wanted to update y’all on our sweet angel. He is crawling all over the place, laughing, playing, and smiling all the time! Max William has been such an incredible blessing. I thank God every day for him. Without y’all though, we would not have him! Thank you for everything that you did for us and for what you continue to do for other couples.”

An Everlasting birthmom shares her story

Stella

I want to say so much about this agency, in particular, Carol Shepherd. I’ll start with how gratefull I am to have found her & the amazing couple that have been here for me since day 1. I went through several profiles on a few different adoption websites before finding this one. Not far into some of the profiles, I saw Jami & Ryan. Something about Jami’s face & smile made me read more. I called Carol for the 1st time that day. I asked about the couple that I was so drawn to. Carol, several times over the duration of my pregnancy, assured me that although difficult, my decision of giving a child up for adoption would be such a blessing to Jami & Ryan. If ever I felt sad, doubtful, or even excited, Carol never hesitated to comfort me. It’s been almost 4 years since I handed Jami & Ryan their daughter. I will forever have a place in the lives of everyone involved & without Carol @ Everlasting Adoptions, I would not be the Birth mom that I am so very proud to be. Thank you so much for making amazing connections in life. Here is a picture that shows just how good Carol made me feel about being a Birth mom. My adoption was an open one. Jami & Ryan have just recently told, Stella, our daughter, LOL, that I “grew” her for them. I hope this story reaches another Birth mom so that she can see what an awesome process & connection can become of what might seemingly be the hardest decision she will ever make!!!

With all my Love,
Thank You Carol.

Happy 2nd Birthday to Belle!
