Celebrating Forever: Congratulations Barnes Family!
Katelyn Hall • March 18, 2025
Where tiny hands and big hearts meet — belonging begins.
We are thrilled to celebrate the Barnes family as they officially welcome their daughter into her forever home — a home where she is cherished, celebrated, and truly belongs. After three wonderful years together, this beautiful young girl, full of sparkle and joy, is now forever a part of the Barnes family.
She loves everything makeup, jewelry, and playing dress-up — filling every room with laughter, creativity, and her bright personality. The Barnes family shared their journey with us:
"Years before our marriage, we knew God had called us to open our home to children who needed a safe and loving place to call home for however long that was. When her permanency plan became adoption, it confirmed what we felt too — she was home."
They will never forget the first time she was placed in their arms — tiny, wrapped in a blanket that weighed more than she did — and how from that very moment, belonging began to grow.
"She has brought unimaginable love and joy into our lives. We are blessed to be her parents."
Their story is a beautiful reminder that belonging is not just about a home, but about hearts finding their rightful place — surrounded by love, security, and joy.
Please join us in celebrating the Barnes family and the extraordinary love that has made them whole
As parents and caregivers, it can be hard — and sometimes overwhelming — to know how to respond when a child is upset. One of the biggest challenges is figuring out whether you're dealing with a tantrum or a meltdown.
Family isn't defined by age, circumstances, or perfect timing...
After three years of building memories, growing together, and navigating the challenges of the foster care journey, these dynamic brothers are now officially part of the Jordan family! A story of adoption.
