John and Harry adopted a wonderful baby girl, Zoey, on July 3, 2017. Zoey entered this world and immediately stole the hearts of her new parents. We admire the strength and courage of Zoey's birthmother, Ashley, in choosing adoption and the beautiful relationship all of them created during this journey! We cannot thank her enough for making this family's dream come true. John and Harry adopted in 14 months and we are so glad they did! Wishing this family the very best!

Congratulations John & Harry

Bodhi Kate

It was a long road for Kaydian and Nandini, who went through several failed matches during their adoption journey. All along the way, they always held on to that little bit of hope that "everything will work out the way it's supposed to." They were feeling down on their luck when a last-minute situation changed it all. To say that their journey was roses and rainbows would not necessarily be accurate, but once they laid eyes on their daughter, it all changed for the better. Little Bodhi Kate was born on May 12, 2017, and their lives were changed forever! Seeing everything this sweet couple went through and knowing their lifelong dream to be mothers has come true brings so much joy to us. Bodhi is one lucky little girl! Her birth parents were so confident in their decision and remained strong when others were against them. We cannot commend them enough for their bravery and willingness to put themselves last and do all they could for their daughter. A beautiful relationship has blossomed between these four in such a short amount of time. The wait is finally over, and we cannot be happier. Congratulations Kaydian and Nandini!

Congratulations Kaydian & Nandini

Avery Jane

Placed in 12 months

Birthmother Sarah admitted she was considering adoption prior to contacting LifeLong in early December. LifeLong helped her pick from various family profiles and she felt confident in having Heather adopt her baby girl. Over the course of the next six months, they built a beautiful relationship. Heather visited Sarah prior to the birth and headed to Kentucky days prior to wait for the arrival of Avery Jane. Avery was born on June 24, 2017, as healthy as could be! She was able to spend her first hours in the world surrounded by the love of her birthmom and adoptive mom. Heather adopted in 12 months. From all of us here at LifeLong, we wish Heather, Sarah, and Avery nothing but love and happiness! Congratulations!

Congratulations Heather

Kaley May

Placed in 23 months

During Kristin's adoption journey, she had a few ups and downs, but she always had a positive outlook on everything. She waited a grueling two months for things to become final, and she showed nothing but poise, trust in the process, and gratitude to her amazing birthmother, Tierra, who gave her the most selfless gift anyone can get and give. Kristin and Tierra connected instantly, developing an incredible bond. LifeLong is so excited for Kristin, who traveled to Tennessee to meet her new daughter, Kaley May. She was born early on April 11, 2017, but as healthy and beautiful as can be! Tierra is equally as excited for Kristin and the two will have a lifelong friendship. Despite the trials and tribulations Kristin endured along the adoption journey, completing her family through adoption will always be worth it! The strength that Tierra and Kristin both shared is so admirable. Congratulations Kristin, the wait is finally over! Kristin adopted in 23 months.

Congratulations Kristin

Urban Dawn

With some trials and tribulations for Mindy and Angie, one thing that showed through during their adoption journey was poise. Along the way, four different birthmothers wanted to have contact with them, but all four times they were let down when things did not work out. Then their beautiful birth parents contacted LifeLong in January of 2017, and said they wanted to start talking with Mindy and Angie. During the course of the next six months, both families built something we don't see in every case we work. They formed a true friendship and extended family with one another while keeping the same goal in mind: build a beautiful life for their baby girl, Urban Dawn. Urban was born on June 11, 2017, and Mindy and Angie were there with their birth parents every step of the way during the delivery and birth. Urban was welcomed not only by her new mommies, but her amazing birth parents, too. The time the families spent together before and after Urban's arrival is something we're sure will be some of their greatest memories. We're appreciative and grateful for Mindy's and Angie's understanding of the adoption process, patience during the waiting period, and keeping a positive outlook during the hardest times. We are overjoyed their birth parents found us and we cannot commend them more for showing such strength, determination, and selflessness in doing what was best for Urban, and putting themselves last to do all they could for her. Good things really do come to those who wait, and we wish you ALL a lifetime of love and happiness! Congratulations!!!

Congratulations Mindy & Angie

We are so excited you were able to build your growing family through adoption, and that we could play a role in that. When their birthmother, Joyce, called to say she was going to the hospital and believed she was in labor, Kristen and Kendra were off to D.C., and Maya Kay was born on June 9, 2017. Congratulations to this beautiful family. We wish you nothing but happiness, joy, and love with your angels!

Charlotte Katherine Rose

Placed in 6 months

Wow! That's all we can say about the match that Amber and birthmom Judy went through. In just six short months Amber was welcoming her beautiful baby girl, Charlotte Katherine Rose, into this world on the 1st of June. The instant we connected Judy and Amber, it was apparent they were meant to be with each other. Amber showed nothing but patience, understanding, love, and compassion toward Judy, who was in a very vulnerable and, at times, difficult situation. Judy showed nothing but confidence, gratitude, and appreciation for everything Amber did for her during the three months they were going through this process together. Charlotte is so lucky to have such an open-minded, protective, and loving new mommy and birthmother. Thank you all for being so wonderful and amazing to work with. We cannot congratulate you enough!

Congratulations Amber

Olivia Louise

Placed in 13 months

In just 13 short months, Travis and Barron were off to Indiana to meet their baby girl, Olivia Louise, for the first time! Olivia was born on May 20, 2017, and her amazing birthmother, Kea, gave Travis and Barron the most gracious gift of all! Only seven months into their adoption journey, Travis and Barron got the call that would change it all! There were a few ups and downs along the way where she was not sure of her decision, but a few months later grew confident that Travis and Barron were the parents for little Olivia. They built a wonderful relationship with their birthmother, who was strong and amazing through the entire process. We are so happy for this incredible couple and wish you a lifetime of happiness. Congratulations!

Congratulations Travis & Barron

In nine short months, they were meeting their daughter for the first time and the look of gratitude and love was written all over their faces. The brave birthparents, Alicia and Corey, made Marc and Justine's journey to parenthood come true and we will forever thank them for this selfless gift.

Twice as nice as they say! Jim and Michael adopted their adorable twins in just 14 months! Lillian Grace and Liam Oliver were born on April 7, 2017, in Kentucky, and were healthy and strong! Just like their birthmother, Sarah. Jim, Michael, and Sarah have developed a relationship as such that they each have gained a lifelong family member and friend in one another. They visited a few times before Lily and Liam were born, spending time with and getting to know one another. Seeing their relationship blossom to what it is now is nothing short of amazing. We cannot be more thankful for Sarah for giving them the TWO most beautiful gifts anyone can ever receive. Congratulations to this new family!!

Congratulations Jim & Michael

Hayden Grace

Placed in 23 months

Patience and understanding are two really great words we would use to describe Nathan and Lucas. They adopted in 23 months! They were connected with their birth parents, Ashley and Chris for a few weeks until their baby girl Hayden Grace was born on April 6, 2017. It was a tough decision for Ashley and Chris to come by, but finding the perfect family for them made their mind more at ease. Nathan and Lucas went to Nevada about two weeks before Hayden was born to hang out and wait for her arrival. They were patient in navigating this difficult time for the birth parents. They were understanding and not pushy when it came to communication and knew that everything would work out the way it's supposed to. And it did! We cannot be more excited for this deserving and incredible couple. We wish you all nothing but the very best!

Congratulations Lucas & Nathan

Olivia Ryan

Placed in 11 months

Maria and Victoria had a devastating failed match before they were connected with their birthmother, Sonja. Sonja was only connected with Maria and Victoria for a few short days when we got the notification she was in labor. Maria and Victoria headed to Arkansas without hesitation and they met their daughter the following day! Sonja had placed for adoption with LifeLong once before and made this brave, strong, and courageous choice to do so again. Olivia Ryan was born on April 6, 2017, and was as beautiful as ever! With every obstacle Maria and Victoria faced, it all led them to their new baby girl. Sonja, your determination, and strength is something we all admire here and we cannot thank you enough for completing this family! You will always hold a special place in our hearts. We cannot be more excited for this amazing couple! Congratulations Maria and Victoria!

Congratulations Maria & Victoria

Olivia

What a whirlwind it was for Matt & Ian's adoption journey. Just when they almost gave up hope, their baby girl was born on March 26, 2017! Olivia was brought into this world by her brave and amazing birthmother, Charlotte. They created such a special and beautiful relationship with Charlotte and Charlotte's family. With a head full of beautiful dark hair, she was everything and more that Matt and Ian ever hoped for. Their long awaited miracle was finally here! With ups and downs along the way, they continued to fight to fulfill their dream of becoming daddies. Olivia is one lucky girl to have such great parents and we cannot thank Charlotte enough for making their dreams come true! Congratulations from our LifeLong Family to yours!

Congratulations Matt & Ian

Gabriel Michaelee

She instantly connected with Amanda and Jessica, who adopted Gabe after waiting 17 months! He quickly took to them, smiling and laughing with his new family. The bond they all created is nothing short of beautiful. With his playful personality and beautiful smile, he stole Amanda and Jessica's hearts almost instantly.

Riley Lauren

Placed in 23 months

After patiently waiting for 23 months, Randy and Ray were heading home with their new baby girl, Riley Lauren. Riley was born on March 15, 2017, and her amazing birth parents let Randy and Ray be a part of their journey. They met several times before the birth, sharing stories, getting lunch, building an amazing relationship, and attending doctor appointments with Mindy and Joe. Randy and Ray were respectful of Mindy and Joe's wishes on taking baby Riley home with her for a few days after discharging from the hospital. The strength, trust, and bond that they all shared and will continue to share is nothing short of amazing. We cannot thank Randy and Ray enough for respecting Mindy and Joe's wishes and we certainly cannot praise Mindy and Joe enough for being so incredibly strong for choosing this decision. You have made this family complete and we cannot be more happy for you all! Congratulations Randy and Ray!!

Hudson Bennette

Placed in 18 months

Gina, we cannot be more excited for you! Gina adopted her son, Hudson Bennette, in 18 months. It was a long and enduring road for Gina, who was getting closer to her expiration date. She had a few birthmothers contact her, but things didn't work out. It only led her to her new son! Gina always remained hopeful and always would tell us there was a plan for her that she could not control, and was excited for when her time came. Just when she thought she was down on her luck, an incredibly brave birthmother, Yohori, called LifeLong from the hospital looking to place her son for adoption. She chose Gina and Gina was out to Georgia right away! Hudson was born on March 2, 2017, and we cannot admire Yohori's strength enough for making Gina's dreams of motherhood come true. If there is a message Gina would want to tell waiting families, it is, "Never lose hope, and trust the process." Congratulations, Gina!!

Congratulations Gina

We will forever be thankful for her. Congrats to Kate, Langston is one lucky boy!

Emily delivered a healthy and beautiful baby girl, Presley, on February 18, 2017. David and Gary visited Missouri before the birth to spend time with their birthmother and her grandmother.
