Dear Birthmother,

We have faced uncertainty, disappointment, and unexpected turns throughout our lives. Meeting each other is one of those unexpected turns. In our thirties, we were content being alone, but meeting each other was the best thing that happened to us. We love each other and genuinely find joy in each other’s presence. It was devastating when we discovered we could not have a child together, but we knew we had to keep looking forward and that path took us to adoption.

We will not pretend to know what you are feeling, but like you, we want what is best for this child. We want to kiss their first scraped knee, take pictures as they blow out their birthday candles, comfort them during their first broken heart, teach them how to change a tire, and cheer as they walk across the stage in their cap and gown. We are also open to sharing these moments with you at any level you are comfortable with.

We are honored you are taking the time to learn more about us and considering us to parent your child. Even if you do not choose us, thank you for making someone like us a momma and daddy.
