adoption story of hope : andy & ali

Andy and Ali started working with me in October of 2016 after experiencing a failed placement with a local agency.  They knew the Lord had big plans for their family and waited patiently with their local agency for another match.  After waiting for several more months with the same agency, they decided to open up their possibilities of becoming matched by signing on with CAC  They came to CAC with big open hearts and a strong desire to parent another little baby.  Over the next few months they would consider several more situations by putting their "yes" on the table each and every time.  Every time they presented to an expectant mom, they strengthened their faith in the wait and grew closer together as a family.  

January came and a New Year started... a New Year for God to do some amazing things for this family! Early January, they got a call from their local agency about an expectant mom and baby boy due in just 2 weeks! Yes, 2 weeks!  They waited in anticipation for this sweet boy to be born and to meet the brave mom who had chosen them to parent her son.  Just a few weeks later, they welcomed home their adorable son Zack.  Mom, Dad, big Bro, and baby Zack are all home together, soaking up the love this sweet boy has added to their amazing family. 

 Congrats Andy & Ali ! 

Ali shares in her own words about their adoption journey:

"Adoption is sanctifying: it's a test in patience, in selflessness, in empathy, in trust, and in your walk with the Lord.  God did not let one minute of our adoption journey become wasted: with every day that passed, we kept praying.  When we experienced the heartache of failed matches or a failed placement, we learned to turn to the Lord for healing first.  The skills we practiced while waiting fueled our prayers, changed our hearts, and led us to become the parents of a perfect, squishy, tiny human."
