Is adoption really an alternative to abortion? This question used to be easier for me to answer. I thought it was fairly cut and dry – one ends in life, the other in death, and the only other difference was roughly nine months. But then I became a mom. I realized that pregnancy and childbirth…
For seven years my parents tried to have a child both naturally and then through adoption. Seven years of excruciating medical treatments, mountains of paperwork, and indescribable loss. Then, miraculously, when my cousin, who is a few months older than me was born, the nurse in his hospital room told my parents that she knew…

For our family, this Christmas season will be our most memorable. It is our first Christmas as a family of three. Our home is overflowing with love, magic, and new beginnings.

I have always known in my heart that I was meant to have children through adoption. I loved everything baby from the time I was a baby and nurturing has always been my love language. It didn’t matter if it was a neighbor’s baby who I babysat for, an orphaned lamb who needed me to…
The pieces of our adoption story started falling into place long before we officially made the decision to pursue adoption. We moved, changed jobs, received promotions, and met new people.

But it’s incredible stories like this that are proving that claim to be untrue. When Albequerque police officer Ryan Holets…

Part trucker. Part baby rescuer. That’s how I fancy myself—an unfettered hombre on the open road, hauling a whole heap of culture of life from one town to the next, en route to a destiny of hope. Over the last seven months I have driven well over 10,000 miles across 19 states showing Storks mobile…
Live Action News — The New York Times shared a video earlier this month of “Modern Love: Lost and Found,” viewed thousands of times on its Facebook page.

She was 19 years old. Her whole life ahead of her. She was dating the love of her life. She met him at a Christmas party and says she couldn’t resist when he asked her out. They spent every moment together and became very close in a very short amount of time. Everywhere they went…
It would be easy to mistake this family’s home for a gathering of the United Nations. That’s because they represent four different continents all under one roof! While many families choose to adopt, this family is unique in that they’ve chosen to adopt children with special needs from around the world. And they’ve invited us…
