Parents Adopt 4 Kids in 24 Hours For the Most Magical Day in Adoption History
When Kaley Carling woke up on Oct. 19, she had no idea that it would be the day she and her husband officially adopted four kids in less than 24 hours. She posted her story on Reddit alongside a photo from the moment they became parents of four beautiful children. Kaley and her husband had been fostering two of the girls for over a year and the other two (twins) they adopted privately, but all four adoptions were finalized on this magical day in October.
"Our journey to get to this point has been anything but easy; health issues, infertility, failed adoptions, death. Heartbreak. And more heartbreak. Sh*t that is so crazy you couldn't make it up. It seemed like it would never end. We are here to give hope to those in a similar situation to persevere, to push through. When you feel like giving up, don't. It will all be worth it in the end...sleep deprivation and all."
Kaley and her husband's dreams came true (four times), but the road there was not easy. She explained that she suffers from both lupus and rheumatoid arthritis, which made conceiving very hard. "My husband and I decided to take a break from 'trying,' and to focus on more foster and/or adoption, something that had been a dream of mine since I was a teenager," she said.
Adoption also had its struggles, and after failed efforts, they took in two girls to foster. Haven, now 2, and Indie, now 14 months, joined the Carling family home in Utah, but nothing could have prepared them for what would happen next! In a crazy series of events, on the same day Haven and Indie came home, Kaley was contacted by a woman about adopting two more babies. Their mother was about to give birth to twins in Arizona, and after five months, Sunny and Weslie (now 9 months) came home to join the Carling family.
"We were able to finalize the adoptions for all four girls on October 19 and October 20," Kaley told Parents.com. "It was easily the best few days of our lives! The judge commented that she's never seen so much love and support in her courtroom before."
Kaley did not give up on her dreams of a big family and now she and her husband have four beautiful daughters.
