Expecting the unexpected

For Michael and Kyli, the adoption process took an unexpected fast track to their son Memphis. They went into this process knowing and expecting to wait the?traditional 6-10 months with CAC. To their surprise?they were matched in just over one month. Along the way, they opened their hearts to openness with their?birth mother and developed a beautiful, loving relationship. When I asked Kyli about?their?adoption experience she sent me one of her favorite quotes. ?”There’s never a?perfect time to foster or adopt. Just a lot of opportunities to say yes despite the many reasons we have to say no”. ?- This perfectly describes?their hearts throughout their experience and I pray their story can be an inspiration to let the Lord direct your?opportunity to say YES.

I have been waiting in anticipation to write this post! As a consultant, I often work with families from all?over the country whom I never get to meet.So when a family matches with a local (to me) Expectant Mom– I get a little excited!

Over the next few months I watched as Michael and Kyli developed a beautiful open relationship with their Expectant Mother. Their hearts were so open and loving to this precious woman who needed’someone in her life at that moment. They went into this process not knowing what to expect when considering the openness of their adoption, but?they allowed the Lord to lead and guide them during this time. It was such a?privilege to see His faithfulness on full display.
