We knew adoption was God’s plan for us after only 6 months of fertility medication. We chose Everlasting because of their warm welcome and unexplainable compassion. When Jenna from Everlasting called us to tell us about a possible match it was only a month after we went “live” on their website. I emailed the birth mother that night and automatically we knew, we were a fit for each other! I texted with the birth mother daily and that led to us meeting. Looking back, it seems like we were meant to know each other. She was 3 weeks pregnant when we were matched so we went through her pregnancy with her and her fiancé. On December 8 we had a baby shower and the birth mother attended and met my family and friends. Ten days later…. I received a phone call from the birth father that the birth mothers water broke; the birth mother was 33 weeks 6 days. Me and my husband rushed to be by their side. That evening, I watched our angel come into the world in the delivery room. We spent 9 days in the hospital while she learned to eat and cue for her feeds, all the while, the birth parents were by our sides. She’s healthy, happy and home now and is just perfect! I never dreamed our baby would be in our arms so quickly and I also never dreamed we would gain amazing friends that are part of our family now (her birth parents). Thank you Everlasting, for making our dreams come true and helping to answer our prayers!
