Mel is responsible for our miracle!

It recently dawned on me that my wife and I haven't formally thanked Mel for being our miracle worker, please except this review that comes directly from the heart. This November will be 3 years since Melissa was the voice of solution and helped us accomplish our miracle. Before finding Mel, we conta...cted multiple Attorneys, only to be told "it can't be done in the time frame you need", one even chuckled and said good luck with that. From the first phone call when Mel learned that we had the opportunity to privately adopt a newborn, but had time constraints, she was immediately solution driven and put a plan in motion. From the home study agency, to the court stenographer that was brought to the hospital for legal documentation, to the finalization of adoption in front of the judge, Mel's plan was flawless. My wife and I left the hospital with our 2 day old newborn son in almost disbelief that our miracle had really happened. It didn't take long for the rush of emotions and reality to set in, we know that god placed Mel and our son in our lives by design. Almost three years later, our son is thriving and has more family that loves him than he knows what to do with! Mel, you're in our hearts and minds, we forever owe you a debt of gratitude.
