An Indiana police officer and his wife, who struggled for years to conceive, adopted their second daughter: a newborn baby girl who was anonymously surrendered to a local hospital. The devout couple thanks God for gifting them the family of their dreams in his perfect timing.

Nurse Shelby Marie Faltynski, 35, and her husband, police lieutenant Bruce Wayne Faltynski, 40, were both born and raised in their current hometown of Mishawaka, Indiana. After a long and complex fertility journey, they became foster (and eventually adoptive) parents to Kaia, now 9, in March last year. And then on Nov. 18, 2022, National Adoption Day, they officially adopted another baby, whom their daughter Kaia named Myah Joy.
