Dear Birthmother,

We don’t know what factors played into your considering adoption, why you chose to read this profile, or what your hopes are for this child’s future (and your own), but no matter what, we promise to be honest.

We are a family that hopes to continue growing. We now look forward to our son, Thomas, becoming a wonderful big brother! Through his open adoption, it was incredible for our family to grow to include not just a baby but his birth parents and grandparents.
You might also be considering a less involved adoption, and that would work too. While we would always keep the door open in case your decision changes, we understand that life after any adoption may require you to take a step back. If that’s the case, you could rest assured that you placed this baby in the heart of a kind, loving, and happy family.

In our experience, it’s natural to have lots of questions about making the right choice, but above all, we’re excited to connect over the shared happiness and security we all want for this child. Whether an open or closed adoption, with frequent contact or only sometimes, this adoption can be something we shape together. You set the pace, and we’re so grateful for and inspired by the decision you are making. We’d love the chance to connect and share who we are and the world we want to open up to this baby.
