Family Connections Christian Adoptions

I am going to give anyone who wants to adopt the long view of what and why we went through FCCA. First my husband and I took a pride class through the state. A pride class trains you to be aware of the ups and downs and how to help and handle foster kids. This class was very helpful i learned a lot, however my husband and I didn’t want to just foster we wanted to adopt and found if we had a child in our home i couldn’t return it back to parents, that would be difficult on my 8 year old. So we took a few months to recoup and went to FCCA. They were in the state of transition after we took our classes and a few months later we were rewarded with Lindsay and Janella. These two dream team-​they know their job they keep you calm, this is a hard process to go through. So many steps and Janella always calmed my heart. I cant imagine this company without them, and I truly mean it. After our home study was completed we met Lindsay in her office– she picked the children for us (you can also pick yourselves but I felt she would know better than us and she did. We looked at children she had picked and I can tell you this was the most brutal part of it all, we obviously could not keep all the kids but to this day I still remember the face a little girl that looked sad and it haunts me, but i can’t pick them all, my husband and I both set our hearts immediately on our children we have today — four siblings. I am in love they put so much in my heart in addition with my kids I feel like i won the lottery. Now-​back to FCCA– they made the calls set up the appointments talked to us about it and made sure the paperwork and steps to the placement and adoption were accurate. Our judge even quoted in the courtroom that FCCA had the most detailed home study done, so yeah they rock. During our adoption process they added Kacey and she is a joy to be around and is very good at what she does also. I am so overjoyed with my family and many thanks to FCCA for making it happen– xoxo teresa vigil
