Libby’s bio:

Libby is a Designer and Photographer. She and her husband, Eddy, have three children. Their youngest son joined their family through domestic adoption with Christian Adoption Consultants back in 2015. She loves having the opportunity to help other families in their adoption journey and prays for each family and child as she works on their profiles. Libby believes God calls families to adoption and works every detail to place each child in the family He created them for.

Libby’s story:

God laid adoption on my heart at a young age after watching numerous family members walk through the process and add to their family through adoption.

When my husband and I got married, I made sure to tell him that adoption was something I saw in our future. He liked the idea but the cost and unknowns made him hesitant. Two and a half years into our marriage, we had our first son. Twenty-one months later, our daughter was born. When she was almost two, we decided to start trying for a third child. Months went by. A year. Two years. We made an appointment to see a doctor, but he could find no reason for why I was not pregnant. He talked about more tests and possible solutions, but we left that first appointment knowing what we were supposed to do. God was clearly laying it on our hearts to adopt. The cost still scared us, but we were ready to step out in faith and allow God to lead us to our third child. We firmly believe that when God calls you to something, He will provide and move mountains to accomplish His plans.

We started our process internationally, feeling that was where God was calling us. After some law changes in Ethiopia, the international process slowed down drastically. Eventually, we felt God was leading us down a different path. Friends of ours had recently brought their daughter home from Florida through Christian Adoption Consultants. We decided to consider it, and I stumbled across Leah’s blog late one night. I emailed her and almost immediately got a response. I talked to Eddy the next day, we prayed and knew that this was where God wanted us.

We started with CAC in January 2015. Leah was such an encouragement praying for us, giving wise counsel and just being there for us.  In July of 2015, we received a situation that Eddy and I both felt we should present to. A few days later, we got The Call! The expectant mother had chosen us! We were thrilled. After years of waiting and trusting God’s plan when we had no idea what was around the bend, we had three months to prepare for our son to come home! Our two older children were so excited they had been asking for years when their baby brother or sister would come home and we could finally tell them it would be soon!

Our youngest son was born in September and is the perfect addition to our family and such a joy! God’s plans and timing are always perfect and exceed our expectations.

In February of 2017, Leah contacted me about an opportunity to work as her assistant and create family profiles. I was beyond excited, adoption is such a big part of my life and heart, and knowing I could work to help other families experience the blessing of adoption, while working from home was the perfect fit. Eddy and I were so happy with our experience with CAC as an adoptive family, and I am honored to now be a part of the team, working to bring families together and see God do amazing things as He builds each family.

Funny how long they live⁣
Sending branches upward in heaves⁣
Reminding us of how we ought to be⁣
Relying on strength and agility⁣
In storms that swirl and pound and break⁣
Outward limbs, sometimes shake⁣
Seasons show upon their face⁣
Animals take rest in the shade⁣
Breath we take, exhaled for granted ⁣
Fruit they give freely, always enchanted ⁣
Though they watch and keep an eye⁣
On our life, just standing by⁣
Supplies provided, home to dwell⁣
Glory scattered in fall’s carnival⁣
Outlast, but never giving in⁣
Carrying us to the grave again⁣
⁣

This afternoon we have another adoption story over This afternoon we have another adoption story over on our blog. We pray it will be an encouragement to you wherever you are in your journey! "Did we hear God wrong? It's easy to second guess your adoption plans when you're in the middle of the process; in the trenches of the wait. Sometimes even easy to second guess your faith and your ability to clearly hear God's call. But I've learned that God is always at work, even when we can't see it. Chris and Jen had these questions and decided to give up their plans for growing their family through adoption. And that's exactly the time they received a call about their son. Today Jen shares the questions, and the answers, that led them to their family of two growing to three." - CAC Adoption Consultants Susan @svansyckle ⁣

"Expectations. They can kind of make us or break u "Expectations. They can kind of make us or break us, can’t they? As I’ve walked with many people through their adoption journeys, I’ve seen families crushed by unrealistic expectations and I’ve seen families beautifully hope in God as they’ve surrendered their expectations to Him. So what does it look like to have reasonable expectations during your adoption and specifically as you work with an adoption consultant at Christian Adoption Consultants? What does it look like for adoption expectations to 'make you' rather than 'break you?'" -CAC Adoption Consultant Katie F. @katiefenska ⁣

We have another adoption story on the blog this ev We have another adoption story on the blog this evening! "It was an honor to walk with Jamey and Sydnee through their adoption journey. When we first connected I remember Sydnee opening up about their long journey through infertility and loss. She shared her heart and about the journey that led them to this specific place and time. She also shared some of their fears with me about the adoption process, one of them being too old' to be desirable to an expectant mother. As she was talking I remember thinking to myself, 'I'm so glad that God connected my path to these amazing people and I can't wait to see what the Lord has in store for them.' Their journey through the adoption process wasn't easy, but that same journey, the one with ups and downs, the one with disappointment, the one with waiting, led them to their daughter and I know they wouldn't change a thing about it. Jamey and Sydnee, thank you for allowing me to walk with you through the adoption process. I am beyond amazed at the story God wrote for your family! Today Sydnee shares that story..." -CAC Adoption Consultant Kelly @kellybethtodd⁣

"Sometimes when God asks for your 'yes,' he only gives you the very next step. For Seth and Brittany, they took the next right step the entire time, even when they didn’t know exactly where they were headed. Home study, done. Find Christian Adoption Consultants, done. Begin seeing situations…present to expectant families…raise finances for the next phase…⁣
⁣
Every step a new challenge. And every step a new space to trust God with their future and their family. Today I’m so thankful for Brittany who shares the details of their story in such a way to encourage other families who might feel hesitant taking the next step God is calling them to take." -CAC Adoption Consultant Susan⁣ @svansyckle
