Dear Birthmother,

We are incredibly honored to be considered by you to raise your child. We have no way of knowing how difficult this must be for you, but it takes a level of courage and strength that we greatly admire.

If you choose us, we promise to love and cherish your baby from the moment we are chosen through every day of our lives. We have waited a long time and are very excited about this journey. We promise that your baby will live a lifetime of adventures surrounded by extended family and friends who cannot wait to meet our newest family member. Your child is already loved by so many people. We are looking forward to sharing our lives with your child. We can't wait to teach them how to swim and water ski and how to work on cars. We'll hike and climb mountains and learn about history by visiting the pyramids. They will be surrounded by music and will have the opportunity to learn instruments. We can't wait to share our love of special effects and Halloween and to see Christmas through a child's eyes again.

We wish you peace in whatever you decide. We want you to know that we will be eternally grateful and honored if we are chosen and we will always work hard to ensure that you are confident and happy in your decision and that your child knows the amount of love that went into this selfless decision.


Home

Our Home

We live in a one-story home on a water-skiing lake in a suburban neighborhood with a lot of children. We are just minutes from the local five-star schools, tons of parks and trails, and really close to multiple beaches. We have a large, private, and fenced-in, back yard with a rope swing and a pool. We are big on swimming and water sports! When we combined households, we ended up with five cats that we absolutely adore. They are super friendly and love children, and they look awfully cute in their Halloween costumes!

Our Extended Family

Stephanie is extremely close to her parents and speaks to them every day. Mike's parents have passed away, but he is close to his sister and to Stephanie's parents. Stephanie's family always spent Christmas Eve at her father's parents' house. On Christmas morning, Stephanie and her sister weren't allowed to go into the living room to see what Santa brought until her dad had set up the video camera and her mom had coffee ready. After opening presents, they went to her mother's sister's house. Spending holidays with both sides of the extended family continues to this day. There were always barbecues with friends and family on other holidays and days spent on the boat on the lake with friends. Mike's family liked to take summer road trips around the U.S. Stephanie and Mike love Halloween, making decorations, costumes, and treats, and handing out candy. We can't wait to continue these traditions with our own little one and with extended family and friends.
