Congratulations Josh & Richard
Monroe Terrence
A beautifully strong expectant mother with adoption in her heart early on came to LifeLong and chose Joshua and Richard to parent her son. Both the birthmother and adoptive parents recall their first meeting as being nothing short of amazing! They did not want their time together to end. They talked more than they ate, and this amazing woman left their visit knowing she wanted nothing more than for this couple to parent her child. Josh and Richard traveled to the hospital and were blessed with being able to participate in the delivery of their son, Monroe Terrence. Congratulations Josh and Richard!

Sebastian
Congratulations Miles & Russell
Sebastian
Congratulations to Miles and Russell on the birth of the handsome son, Sebastian Miles! Miles and Russell were only presented two times before talking with their lovely birthmother, Ashley! After their very first phone call, everyone knew this was meant to be. Ashley was ready to take the selfless steps towards placing her baby with Miles and Russell. In February, their Adoptive Parent Coordinator, Melinda, joyously connected them with Ashley. The parents-to-be had less than three months to develop a relationship with Ashley, and she with them. However, their connection was strong, and by the time April rolled around, everyone was prepared for the birth of this sweet little boy. We are so thankful for the altruistic mother that blessed Miles and Russell with this child. We here at LifeLong could not be more thrilled with this happily ever after!
Congratulations Miles & Russell

We are so thankful for the courageous act of Brooks' birthmother and the selfless love she has shown. Congratulations Josh and Jack!

Their journey progressed as they talked and they met face to face, solidifying their relationship and her decision on the family that was right for her baby. Xéla Rose was born on April 07, 2018, and we could not be happier for the growth of this wonderful family through adoption! Nicholas and Menelik adopted in only six months!

They always remained calm and patient and trusted the process of adoption. They assured the birthmother that they were there to support her and be there for her whenever she gave them the word, and they were. They hopped in the car the second she told them he was born!

Liz and Andy's birthmother had been considering adoption prior to contacting LifeLong in early September. LifeLong helped her pick from various family profiles and she felt confident in having Liz and Andy adopt her baby girl. Over the course of the next two months, they built a wonderful relationship. Liz and Andy made travel plans to go out to Maine, a few days before her anticipated due date of December 28th, But, their new daughter had other plans! Little Maya was born on December 1, 2017, as healthy as could be, and Liz and Andy dropped everything they were doing and headed out to the hospital immediately!

Congratulations Jeff & David

Six months into their adoption journey, Jeff and David were bringing home their baby boy, Boston, from Florida! Boston was born on November 20, 2017, and his daddies' hearts grew the moment they saw him. With some time in the NICU, they knew Boston was such a fighter and so strong! They were such a remarkable support for their birthmother, who wanted to start talking to Jeff and David back in September. They showed her nothing but compassion, understanding, empathy, and love. While they did have some trials and tribulations close to her due date, they already knew, though, that Boston was meant to be in their home forever! They were connected for two months and created a beautiful relationship. Congrats Jeff and David — thank you for being so amazing through this process and so caring towards Boston's birthmother!!
Congratulations Jeff & David
Jett Thomas
Congratulations Mark & Jason
Jett Thomas
Mark and Jason's birthmother contacted LifeLong Adoptions for the first time in the beginning of October of 2017. Finding Mark and Jason on the website, she felt an immediate connection with them and knew there was something special about them. She and the birthfather were very unsure of which direction they wanted to go, so LifeLong decided to communicate with them and work with them on this decision until they felt comfortable moving forward. It wasn't until a month later that they decided to move forward with their adoption plan. On November 6th, Mark and Jason got the call that would change everything! Ten days after getting the call, their son, Jett Thomas, was born on November 16, 2017! In the few short weeks that they communicated, both parties were able to meet for dinner and get to know one another. They realized they had a lot more in common than they anticipated! Talk about fate! We could not be more excited for the bond that Mark and Jason created with their birth parents and the amazing life that Jett is going to have, having his birth parents and adoptive parents in his life. He is so loved! Congrats to you all, and we wish you nothing but the best!
Congratulations Mark & Jason
