Dear Birthmother,
We can’t even pretend we know what feelings you are going through while making this decision, but we want to thank you for even considering us to be a part of your plans. This decision is a very difficult one to make while also a very selfless decision. We know this is not something to be taken lightly, and we hope you can find some peace while going through this process. We respect your decision to choose the family you think will be best.
We just want you to know we will love this precious little one more than anything. We will do everything we can to give this child the life they deserve. We thank God for leading us down the path he has, providing us with the courage to follow this route. We will raise this child to know about God through us and our families. They already have so many family members who cannot wait to meet them!
Our children will grow up knowing they are adopted from the beginning; we want them to know their entire story. This child deserves all the love they can receive from all sides. We want to thank you for considering us and look forward to hopefully meeting you one day. No matter what, we wish you the best of luck in this process and thank you again for considering us.
About Us
We are Kris and Justine from Missouri. We met while in high school and became best friends before we started dating in 2011. We got married in 2016. Kris is a service technician; he is hardworking and always trying to make people laugh. His hobbies include bowling, golf, and tinkering in the garage. Justine is an assistant branch manager at a credit union; she is always willing to help others with anything they need. Her hobbies are crocheting and bedazzling cups and pens. We are a sports-loving family, and we often spend our time watching different games. We love being an aunt and uncle and spend as much time with our nephews and nieces as we can. We love spending time with our family and friends, going on vacations, and just hanging out at home with each other. We can’t wait to make our dreams a reality and add a child to the mix.
Our Home
We live in the same small town we grew up in, so our children will go to the same schools we went to. Both of our parents live only a few miles from us. Our house is only 15 minutes from bigger towns. We have a split-level, three-bedroom, two-bathroom home with a deck on the back. Our house backs up to a field, perfect for children to run and play. We have two dogs, Roscoe and Remington. They both love children and always have to follow our nephews and nieces around when they are here.
Our Extended Family
We are both close to our families. Kris has one sister, who is married; they have a one-year-old. His sister currently lives out of state, but we try to take weekend trips to go see them as often as we can. For holidays, we get together with parents and grandparents and have dinner and play games.
Justine has two brothers, one of whom is married with three children, ages nine, six, and five. For holidays, we get together at our house with parents, grandparents, siblings, aunts, and uncles and have food and play games. Every Easter we have a big Easter egg hunt in our backyard. In the fall, we try to go to as many pumpkin patches as we can get to. For Christmas, we get together and make ornaments with the kids and bake cookies.
We have friends who are like family to us; they and their three kids spend most holidays with us as well. Another group of friends we get together with every Sunday has two kids; we have family dinners and play games together. We can’t wait to add our children into the mix and start our own family traditions!
What Led Us To Adoption
We have wanted to become parents for the last seven years but have been unable to have biological children. After lots of discussions, we have come to the decision that adoption is how we want to grow our family. We are both excited to become parents no matter what that journey looks like. The struggles we have gone through have just brought us closer together, and we are more excited to welcome the precious little one we have longed for.
