We just heard from an alumni family who were contacted by their daughter's birth mother through their attorney. They hustled out to AZ for the placement of a sister! Welcome home to this family of 4 ... CONGRATULATIONS to the Big Sis :)
Winter love for one darling ME couple who will meet their newest member this December. Sending long distance hugs to them today!
Sending love and congratulations to one WI family who brought their baby girl home just in time to meet her big sister💗 before she headed back to school. They joined us less than 1 year ago, finished their home study, profile and started submitting to the various opportunities sent to ASA. They matched and are home with their precious daughter in 1 year or less!
Love continued .... "Howdy Baby" .... and here is that precious boy all bundled up and the pride of his new parents! We are over the moon with love for this new family of 3!
We have fantastic news! An NC client family just took placement of their precious baby boy! They were long-waiting and patient, trusting the process "every step of the way". Sending all our love to our newest family of three. 💙
Help us say WELCOME HOME to a BIG (9 lb+) baby boy born in our client family's home state of SC. They had the privilege of being present at his birth and built a lovely relationship with his birth mother. We are so delighted for this arrival!
It is alumni time!!! What a wonderful family who traveled from FL to CO ten years ago to take placement of their sweet baby girl. Photo #1 is "the moment" they met their daughter. Photo #2 is a 10-year old visiting her hospital birth place in CO. What a great way to celebrate🎉

Happy & ready to ride! Congratulations to this precious TN couple on the placement of their precious baby boy. Patient and trusting the process they did ... took a year of submitting their profile until the expectant mom found them and said YES to their family. So thankful for folks who understand that the reward is worth the wait!🎉👣

We are sending BIG HUGS and much love to a NC single mom chosen by an birth mother of a toddler boy! These two will be the perfect pair to walk through life together. Already enjoying playgrounds while they wait for their approval to come home .... forever!
What a great opportunity for our Adoption coach, Gia, to connect with her client family from Maine. It is once in a “blue moon” ( literally we just had one) that we have the opportunity to meet our clients in person. What a joy it was to help this family fulfill their dreams of parenthood through Adoption!

Let's hear it for the girls! Our third family to bring home their precious pink bundle this week ;) So delighted for this Iowa family who had a previous loss and listened, waited and hoped for their precious daughter to join their family. Congratulations!
Another precious baby girl! Born in the State of Georgia and the adored daughter of her new parents. They were patient and positive waiting for their baby to find them in their home state! Big Love to this newest family of 3 😍
Look at this precious dimpled baby girl! We were so excited to welcome a wonderful family from Maine last fall 2022. They put their trust in our process and are now holding their baby girl, born in FL, where they are cuddled together waiting out their first hurricane together. Much love to this lovely family💗
"Then" and "now" ... here we have one of our world-traveling families who graced us with their adoption photo and some current pics of their terrific family. ![]()

Our second baby was born 9 wks early and in the NICU for 42 days. He weighed less than 3 lbs at birth…but you wouldn’t know it to look at him today!"![]()
