Helping Build Families, One Miracle At A Time^®

You can just imagine the range of emotions that went through us at that moment. People call it the “Circle of Life”. One life leaves this earth while another comes in. I know my father picked out this happy little boy and sent him from heaven to fill our lives with so much love.

This person is not only dedicated to the birth parents and the adoptive parents, but especially to the children whose lives she shepherds through the adoption process. She is truly passionate about her work. Ellen’s passion shows through her caring attitude, commitment to all parties involved, and her love for these children. We cannot imagine going on this roller coaster ride without Ellen Edman by our side reassuring us everything will turn out just fine. She not only made this joyous event possible, she kept us sane through the process.

Your staff came to be like our extended family. We were fortunate and had close to a perfect situation but it was wonderful to have their support during this stressful process.

I can’t imagine how many letters you get every day from people you’ve helped. “Thank you” just doesn’t seem to express how we feel. It had been so long since we had real joy in our lives, and now I just feel like we’re bursting at the seams with love!

- Michelle and Darren

When I made that call, I had so many doutbs in my head. “Could I love an adopted child like I loved my own children?” “How long would the process take?” “What happened if the birth mother changed her mind?”

Our journey began in 2001. We had decided to start IVF cycles because I have severe endometriosis. We completed 4 cycles, and were beginning to feel like it will never work when we discovered I was pregnant!! To add to our joy, we found out that it was twins, a boy and a girl! We were on cloud nine! I had a relatively easy pregnancy at the beginning, I had the glow!! Then, at 22 weeks, I went into labor. Our world came crashing down around us.

Nine days later we were holding our son Anthony. Yes, the Adoption Network Law Center placed us with our healthy newborn son in approximately nine weeks!!

Once we arrived in California, I could not have been happier with our decision to go with ANLC. From the hospital to the birthmother housing to the wonderful staff at ANLC, one thing was better than the next. They are a group of caring and knowledgeable people and we never felt lost or confused in the entire process.

- Lucy and Eric

I honestly
trust and believe in the adoption process thanks to loving professionals at ANLC. If ANYONE
needs reasurance and wants to hear in detail an amazing story we have, I
would love to share our experience and help them. God Bless all of you who
help make dreams come true.

I was there when her water broke and I actually drove her to the hospital. She allowed me to stay with her during the entire birth process and allowed my husband to listen in by telephone, since he was home due to being in the middle of a big trial. It was wonderful on every
Level.
