Adoption Day After 1,756 Days in Foster Care!

March 30, 2026 //  by Sam McLure

THIS Monday we have the happy news to share from LAST Monday. And we will just go ahead and this momma speak for herself…
“On June 1, 2021, our family changed forever. We were given one of the sweetest blessings God could offer, our precious Baby Lani. From day one, we were completely in love and couldn’t imagine life without her.
The past almost five years have come with many challenges, but through it all, God kept us standing and remained faithfully by our side, even when we weren’t always faithful to Him.
On Monday, March 23, 2026, after 1,756 days in foster care, Lani officially became Khallani Christine Cole. She has been our daughter since day one, always loved, always knowing we were her family and that home was with us. But there is a special kind of sweetness and peace that comes with the certainty adoption brings.
We are so grateful for everyone who has supported us, prayed with us, and stood beside us along the way. Thank you for being our rocks, we truly couldn’t have done this without you.
We celebrated Adoption Day in the best way, with an adoption! We welcomed Tina Dog into our family!!!!
“For this child I prayed, and the Lord hath given me my petition which I asked of him.” 1 Samuel 1:27
Excuse the picture overload coming your way 🤍”
We get to work with the BEST families and we are so thankful!
