Dear Birthmother,
We cannot begin to thank you enough for the opportunity you are providing for a family that is looking forward to bringing home a baby to love forever. Having adopted before, we know how difficult this decision is for you to make and want you to know that if we should be the family you choose for your baby, they will be coming to a home and family that has so much love to offer. Your baby will be supported and encouraged throughout every aspect of their life and celebrated for being exactly who they are.
We are so grateful adoption is the path we have been led down again, and with your strength to take this journey with us, we can be parents to another miracle. This baby will be the piece of our family we have been wishing for. All our family has been very supportive in this process, and they are also so thankful for you and your courage. We are open to any type of adoption, even if it changes over time depending on your needs and feelings.
We look forward to watching this child learn and grow while spending time with their big brother, friends, and family celebrating holidays and family traditions, visiting parks and zoos, playing games, reading books, and living life to the fullest. We also look forward to Ryan growing up with a sibling who can share the bond of having been adopted into our family. We appreciate you taking the time to get to know us, and we sincerely hope we get the chance to know you as well!
About Us
We are an active and fun-loving couple who enjoy travelling, being around friends and family, and doing projects around our house. One of our favorite traditions is going on a family vacation each year to explore the local activities, culture, and beauty. Three years ago we adopted our son, and we love being able to expose him to as many new experiences as we can.
Adam is outgoing, passionate, and funny! He is the j“uncle” gym for all of his nieces and nephews and enjoys hobbies such as working out at the Ninja gym, bowling, golfing and woodworking. Adam loves anything to do with technology and obtained his bachelor’s degree in IT after being in the Army for 4 years. His favorite part of working in IT is troubleshooting and problem solving.
Angie is kind, compassionate, and artistic. She has always put others before herself and therefore loves her career in healthcare where she can make patients feel comfortable and understood. Angie’s favorite hobbies are cooking new recipes, creating new art projects, and travelling.
Our Home
We absolutely love where we live! We built our house about 6 years ago in a neighborhood we fell in love with because of the families, activities, and proximity to everything. We can walk to the library, 2 different playgrounds, and the elementary school our children will attend. We are within a 15 minute drive of anything else we could possibly need. There’s a neighborhood block party every year with bounce houses, food, face painting, and live music, which is so much fun for everyone! We have become great friends with our nearby neighbors who have children the same age as Ryan, whom he loves to play with!
Our home has four bedrooms, an open floor plan, and a finished basement with a large playroom. We have 3 very friendly, declawed cats.
Our Extended Family
We are very close with and spend a lot of time with our extended family! Angie’s parents live close by, and her two older sisters and brothers-in-law, who each have a daughter and a son, live within an hour of us. We spend holidays together, go on an annual family vacation, and all attend events such as festivals and family reunions. All the cousins love to play together and get very excited to see one another. We are so grateful to have such a wonderful support system and definitely do not take our close family for granted.
Adam’s mom and younger brother live two hours away. Adam’s brother just welcomed his first child, who is Ryan’s first younger cousin. Since he was born, Ryan cannot stop talking about him and how he wants to be a big brother. We visit Adam’s family whenever we have the opportunity, and they come spend weekends at our house. We get together for holidays or to visit places like the aquarium, zoo, or local market.
Ryan loves seeing his family and frequently talks about them. Angie’s mom, Grammie, loves to spend as much time with all her grandkids as possible, and she watches Ryan one day a week just to spend extra time with him. When we shared our intention to adopt a second baby, all our family members could not have been happier to add to our family!
What Led Us To Adoption
The journey that led us to adoption has been a trying one at times, but we truly believe this is the path we belong on. After getting married, we tried for years to conceive a baby, but have never been blessed with a pregnancy. While this was difficult to accept at first, we researched our options for starting a family and found that adoption is what was meant for us all along. We adopted our beautiful baby boy, Ryan, about three years ago through Angel, and are so grateful to have him in our lives! We both knew from a young age that we wanted to be parents, but the love we have for Ryan far outweighs anything we could have ever imagined! We want to add to our family and adopt a baby we can share our overwhelming love with again, and a sibling Ryan can grow up with.
