My Family United and how it helped me!
Posted in My Family United on 03 January 2020
I never thought that my kids would get taken away. This was the worst day of my life. I don’t think that I slept or ate for a week. You never think it’s going to happen to you. A part of me died that day. Me and my kids had never been away from each other for more than a weekend ever. I was so lost. I tried to do everything my lawyer and worker told me to do but it was a lot. I work and my mom gets real sick sometimes. The judge and all those people in the court scare me, I’m not gonna lie. It’s like everyone in there are friends and I don’t matter. For them, it’s “business as usual” and for me, well, my whole life is in their hands. I can’t really explain. You will understand if it happens to you and I hope it don’t! A good friend of mine knew this Continue Reading
3 Birth Mothers and our Family
Posted in Adopting Mothers on 25 November 2019
We have not 1, but 3 birth mothers that we are forever grateful for their ultimate sacrifice! We decided to grow our family through adoption, and it was the BEST DECISION we have ever made! Our family was blessed with our first child in 2015, a beautiful baby girl. We always wanted a large family and wanted our oldest to have a sibling. In 2017, we experienced a failed adoption. As heartbreaking as that was, we knew our child would find us. Trust us, it was not easy at times to “stay the course” and move on. We spent many nights doubting ourselves and feeling that this will never happen again for us. We were lucky we had one precious baby and our relationship with her birth mother was growing every day. But just as we thought it wasn’t meant to be, later that year, we were blessed with our second child, another beautiful baby girl! Our hearts were full, Continue Reading
This Adoption Agency answers the Phone
Posted in Birth Mothers on 22 March 2018
I cannot express how grateful I am to this agency. When you call, you talk to the owner, Angela. She has been doing this for 30 years. She is an amazingly, refreshingly , honest individual. She will answer all your questions and give you enough information to empower you to be a knowledgeable decision maker. I am so thankful to have spoken with her as she has given me the insight that dozens of agency haven’t. “Melinda”
A Birth Mother’s Letter to her Unborn Baby
Posted in Birth Mothers on
Dear unborn baby inside me, Hi there precious one. It’s your tummy mommy. Right now you are growing inside of my tummy and I already love you so much, more than you will ever know. When I found out that you were in my belly, I was happy because I am bringing another beautiful baby into the world. I was also sad, because I know that one day you won’t be in my tummy anymore. You will be on your way home, but it won’t be home with me. See, as your tummy mommy, it is my job to always put you first and do what’s best for you and your future. That is why I took the time while you were growing in my tummy to pick the best mommy and daddy I possibly could for you. As you grow over the years, they will be the ones to teach you everything you will need to know on how Continue Reading
Our Baby Girl is Home!
Posted in Adopting Mothers on 17 May 2017
We recently adopted our baby girl through Adoption & Family Support Center. They were amazing to work with! Every staff member was supportive, kind, helpful and quick to respond. We never had to wait for an answer to our questions…someone was always available and happy to help. Adoption can be a very stressful process and working with the Adoption & Family Support Center minimized that stress for us. We also love the way they care for our birth mother and make sure that she has everything she needs. They are an outstanding agency! The lawyer that was provided by the agency for finalization, Mr. Price, and his staff, were so friendly and efficient too! Thank you AFSC for helping us to match with our amazing birth mama and adopt our precious little girl. You made our dreams come true! “Donny & Barbara”
