Dear Birthmother,
Dear Expectant Mother,
We want to start by saying thank you for taking the time to read about us. We aren’t going to pretend we understand what you’re going through, although we believe this must be a challenging time. We admire you for considering an adoption plan. It takes courage, strength, and love for your baby for you to think about adoption. You are making a difficult decision, and for that, we feel humbled.
We have always wanted to have a child together. We talked about all the ups and downs of parenthood and how we would handle everything from sleepless nights to homework. Unfortunately, we are unable to conceive. Even though we feel grief, we both believe strongly in the positive impact adoption can have on a family and look forward to being parents to any child we are blessed to have join our family.
Please know we would love to hear from you and answer any questions you may have.
Sincerely,
Liz and Brett
Our Home
A high-quality school district was our top priority when we chose our home. We live in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood where everyone stops to pet Sami when we take her on walks. We live down the street from the public pool, several parks, and sports fields. We love the local park district and the opportunities for outdoor activities.
Our Extended Family
Brett has three siblings who all enjoy spending as much time as possible at their parents’ lake house, where they swim, boat, hike, and ski. Brett’s parents’ decision to adopt has brought the entire family closer than ever. Brett’s two children are at the center of the family.
Liz grew up in Pennsylvania, which is where her parents and brother still live. She has a big extended family and has close relationships with her parents and many cousins, aunts, and uncles. We visit Liz’s family as often as possible and find ways to stay connected when we can’t be together.
