Dear Birthmother,
A simple thank you doesn't even scratch the surface of how we feel that you are considering us to be your baby's parents. It’s a gut-wrenching and heart-bursting amount of gratitude we have for you and the potential decision you could make that will change our lives forever. You will forever hold a special place in our hearts. We hope that if we are chosen, we can teach your child that family isn’t always blood; it’s love, and deep, unconditional love ties us together and makes us family.
We cannot fathom the emotions you are going through as you contemplate this decision of adoption for your child, but we can promise to always share the beautiful adoption story the child has. We admire you for choosing adoption for your child as this shows bravery, courage, and selfless, abundant love.
We would be honored to be your baby's parents and will always love them as our own. We will raise them on the family farm, filling our days with tractor rides, nature walks, and loving the animals. We believe many life lessons are learned on the farm while raising livestock. Thank you for considering us as your child's parents.
About Us
We are Noah, Emily, and Gracelynn from rural Washington. We met in 2014, were engaged in December of 2017, and will be celebrating our sixth wedding anniversary this year. Noah is hardworking, thoughtful, and always ready for an adventure. He enjoys car restoration, fishing, and working on the family farm. Noah works locally as a diesel specialist fixing and operating heavy equipment. Emily is a loving stay-at-home mother. She enjoys sewing, especially wedding/formal dress alterations because she loves the uniqueness of each alteration and the smile people have feeling confident in the perfect tailored dress. Our daughter, Gracelynn, is a spunky, kind, and eager-to-learn three-year-old. She loves playing on the family farm and is so excited to hold the role of big sister. Our family spends most of our days tending to our livestock, camping, boating, or mountain RZR riding.
Our Home
Our home is located on 13 acres in a rural community, and our backyard is against 200 acres of DNR land that includes a scenery of farmland, trees, and a direct view of the mountains. Our home includes a fire pit, swing set, garden, and custom-built playhouse. The land surrounding the home is used to house roughly 45 pigs as we are fourth generation hog farmers who provide organically grown pork to the local community. We have free-range chickens and ducks but no household pets. Our neighbors are just a country mile away and are the absolute kindest people. Our home is a short 30-minute drive to town, and the community is a smaller farming community where everybody knows everybody.
Our Extended Family
We have a very tight-knit family who enjoys spending time together. Noah’s whole family is within a one-hour radius of our home, and we see them often. Noah has the privilege of having five generations interacting with each other at all family gatherings. Each month we gather as his maternal grandparents’ for a homemade meal and family game night. We see his paternal side of the family often but mostly during camping season as we all enjoy camping and four-wheel riding. Noah is one of four siblings, and we enjoy spending time with them by going to the park, movies, local hikes, or boating.
Emily is the youngest of four siblings and sees her siblings, nieces, and nephews weekly; we all have kids under the age of five, so we plan playdates. Emily’s family is very large, and we enjoy annual camping trips as almost all of us have RVs; we do two to three campouts a season. Her maternal side of the family loves the snow and has a cousins day around New Year’s, where we sled, snowmobile, and have homemade chili. We absolutely treasure all family time spent together.
What Led Us To Adoption
Adoption has always been in our hearts and minds since we got married. Noah has both biological and adopted siblings, so he knows firsthand how much love goes into growing a family. Emily has many cousins and friends who are adopted, and after hearing their stories, she knew that was something to pursue as an adult. We are overjoyed at the opportunity to adopt again; our daughter was adopted, and we have been in love with her ever since. After many years of failed fertility treatments, we decided to close the door on Emily carrying our child. After many late night talks and prayers, we felt the tug on our hearts to adopt again. We can’t wait to watch our family grow again through the blessing of adoption.
