Sawyer Skye
Congratulations David & Steven
Sawyer Skye
Only five months after David and Steven joined LifeLong, they welcomed their son Sawyer Skye! A week before her due date, an amazing expectant mother picked them and they connected with her. Their quick call to action had them driving down to the expectant mother's home state just days after being matched. They arrived in time to be present for the birth of their son and are just in awe of their inspirational birthmother. Although their time to get to know her was short, they are forever grateful for her and this blessing. Congratulations to David and Steven!
Congratulations David & Steven

Congratulations, Jason and Linus on your beautiful family and sweet son, Alexander!

Josh and Bing were going through a long and quiet wait, but then they received the news that their son, Nolan Alexander was already born and waiting for them in a neighboring state!

The full family was finally brought together and they could not be any more overjoyed! Congratulations!

Paige
Congratulations Chris & Jeff
Paige
Chris and Jeff began their adoption journey hoping to hit the ground running, and sure enough, they did! An expectant mother had chosen them early on in her pregnancy but waited until she was delivering at the hospital to call and ask the family to be present and meet her in person. Lives were all changed that day as what she thought she wanted was a closed adoption ended up being a beautiful loving relationship with the adoptive parents of her daughter, Paige. We are so grateful for the opportunity to be a part of their story! Congratulations Chris and Jeff on your sweet bundle of joy, Paige!
Congratulations Chris & Jeff
Congratulations Randy & Thang
Randy and Thang experienced some heartache along the way before being matched with their birthmother Cristinna. They connected with her in June and welcomed their son on September 5. With the help of their Adoptive Parent Coordinator, Melinda, they placed 10 months into their adoption journey and their little one was worth the wait! Their birthmother Cristinna was an amazing person who they had a chance to visit with and communicate with often! Cristinna kept them updated daily on her activities and health. Randy and Thang were so grateful for their birthmother. They are excited for baby and the opportunity for Cristinna's outlook and future. Randy and Thang were so thankful for Cristinna's trust. We thank their birthmother and congratulate Randy and Thang on the birth of their son!

Levi
Congratulations Eddie & Orby
Levi
Eddie and Orby had a long and quiet journey for the majority of their time with us. Nearing the end of their journey they started to wonder if there was a light at the end of the tunnel when one day, it all changed. In a whirlwind, an expectant mother due in a matter of weeks chose them and before we knew it they were heading to the hospital. This strong birthmom had the support of her own mother behind her which was so valuable in this difficult time. The family had the blessing of knowing ahead of time that the C-section was scheduled, so they were able to be present for the delivery of their son, Levi, on August 2, 2018. Congratulations Orby and Eddie on your own little miracle!
Congratulations Eddie & Orby

Pressley Inez
Congratulations Danny & Taylor
Pressley Inez
At last, Danny and Taylor's love, little Pressley Inez, has come along! They say good things come to those who wait, but Danny and Taylor weren't expecting to have their perseverance tested to quite this degree. Through multiple failed opportunities, they remained firm in their belief that their family would grow through adoption. We are honestly in awe of the way they just kept showing up to each opportunity with hope and love. While there were definitely several moments along the way that tested them, now at their happily ever after, they know their daughter was worth the wait. Their Adoptive Parent Coordinator, Jenee, Birthmother Coordinator, Nicole, and other members of the LifeLong team are so excited to finally celebrate the joyous occasion welcoming Pressley into the world and the LifeLong family! Congratulations Danny and Taylor, we are so happy for you!
Congratulations Danny & Taylor

Congratulations David and Alan on the birth of their son Samuel on July 21st! These parents had some failed opportunities before they were connected with their brave birthmother in March. They knew their baby was out there and their amazing birthmother made her way to them. Alan and David had the opportunity to develop a secure relationship with their birthmother and were anxiously awaiting the birth of their son. After ten months, they were overjoyed to have Samuel in their arms. We commend their birthmother for her strength. Congratulations!
Congratulations David & Alan
Sebastian
Congratulations Lukas & Mitch
Sebastian
Lukas and Mitch were early into their journey when they matched with their expectant mother. They began to develop a relationship with her over the course of three months leading up to the big day! Through the ups and downs that adoption sometimes brings, Lukas, Mitch, and their courageous birthmother made a family complete on July 18, when Sebastian was born! It was a joyful homecoming for this couple when their sweet boy was welcomed into the world. Congratulations Lukas and Mitch on the birth of your son, Sebastian!

Malcolm Rocco
Congratulations Julie & Aldo
Malcolm Rocco
Julie and Aldo were a joy to work with and had a wonderful relationship with their expectant mother. The situation was a special one in that she requested we send the family a gender reveal! The relationship was mutual as they all moved forward with support and positivity. The family connected with her right away, they visited her in person, and they established a wonderful relationship leading up to delivery. We all celebrated sweet baby boy Malcolm Rocco and his new family when he was born on July 16. Congratulations Julie and Aldo on the birth of your son!
Congratulations Julie & Aldo
Adalina Marielle
Congratulations Hannah
Adalina Marielle
Hannah was matched with her daughter's birthmom back in April of this year. They built a wonderful relationship with one another during those months. Her birthmother delivered a healthy, beautiful baby girl, Adalina Marielle, on July 7th. After Hannah had been caring for Adalina for three days, we were given the news that her birthmother had decided to parent. Heartbroken, Hannah brought Adalina back to her birthmother and then traveled back home. A few weeks later, Hannah texted Adalina's birthmom wishing Adalina a "happy one month." That's when things changed. It was at that point this courageous and incredibly strong birthmother asked Hannah to come back to Ohio because she knew Hannah was meant to be Adalina's mom. Hannah traveled back once again, this time with a different result. It was a really long road for Hannah, with many other failed adoptions along the way, but she never gave up hope. We couldn't be more ecstatic that things worked out for her!
Congratulations Hannah
Finnegan
Congratulations Jeff & Cade
Finnegan
Jeff and Cade returned to LifeLong for their second adoption journey in 2016. After a long and quiet 22 months, they were speedily connected with their birthmother who gave birth to their beautiful son Finnegan on August 15, 2018. With the help of their adoptive parent coordinator, Jenee, their family is complete! Congratulations Jeff and Cade on the birth of your son, Finnegan. We were blessed to be on this journey with you!

Roman Patrick
Congratulations Danny & Chris
Roman Patrick
This amazing and patient couple had an excruciatingly long journey, but they were dedicated to their dream of becoming a family. They maintained the hope that one day their life would change. Soon enough, the birthparents that were meant to bless their lives forever called LifeLong with the news that they were considering placing their son Roman Patrick. Roman's birthparents were making this choice together. They had contacted LifeLong months prior and decided to parent, but soon after he was born, they made the brave decision that placing Roman with Chris and Danny would be for the best. Chris and Danny immediately traveled to meet Roman's birthparents and have enjoyed every moment of having Roman in their lives ever since. Congratulations Chris and Danny! You are evidence that good things come to those who wait!
Congratulations Danny & Chris

Congratulations John & Sophear

John and Sophear connected with their birthmother 16 months into their adoption journey. What was a quiet journey turned into a joyful unfolding of a relationship as they began regular communication and built a relationship over three months with their daughter's expectant mother. Knowing that the ultimate decision was in her hands, they were scared, nervous, and excited, but they stayed hopeful. On August 31, they welcomed their daughter Hope into the world. Many thanks to this courageous birthmother who blessed this amazing family! Congratulations John and Sophear on the birth of your daughter!

Rob and Matt continued to support her in the coming weeks as they moved forward together until sweet Hazel was born on July 9. Congratulations on your beautiful daughter, Rob and Matt!

Ava
Congratulations Lance & Trevan
Ava
After a long journey, the opportunity that was intended just for Lance and Trevan arose at just the right moment! Lance and Trevan were given the last-minute opportunity to work with a selfless and strong birthmother/birthfather couple right in their home state of California. Only a short distance away from this couple was a pair of birthparents who may give them the most precious gift they could even imagine. They sat on the edge of their seats waiting to hear that it was time to go. Sweet Ava was born on June 18, 2018, and this patient couple could not have been more overjoyed. With a little help from their adoptive parent coordinator, Jenee, during the long wait and their birthmother coordinator, Nicole, during the execution of the plan, this family was made complete and we were blessed to witness another miracle of adoption. Congratulations Lance and Trevan on your sweet daughter Ava!

Miles Aaron
Congratulations Timothy & Nicholas
Miles Aaron
Timothy and Nicholas truly experienced the unique ride of adoption. In the end, they have a beautiful story to tell and we hope their courageous birthmother knows how appreciated she is by LifeLong and this couple she chose to raise her sweet son. Timothy and Nicholas had their first birthmother opportunity 14 months into their adoption journey. They were saddened when this opportunity seemingly did not work out, however, they continued to ask about her and let us know she was still in their hearts. Four months later, this strong woman called our birthmother coordinator, Nicole, to express she was still interested in placing her baby with Timothy and Nicholas. The family was quick to get to the hospital to welcome their son, Miles Aaron, on June 9. Congratulations on your new addition!
Congratulations Timothy & Nicholas
