Dear Birthmother,
It is very hard to even know where to begin or find the words to express the fact that we are even being considered during this process. To be in your shoes is foreign to us, and we cannot even begin to understand the emotions you experience on a daily basis. This takes so much courage and great strength, and for that you are so highly respected.
If you decide to select us, please know that your baby will always be surrounded by unconditional love. Your baby will be raised with laughter, riding his or her bike in our neighborhood or at the local farmers market, and enjoying the everyday joys of being a child. We have worked hard to try and create a lifestyle and homelife that we believe would be wonderful for our child. We cannot wait for long summer days, enjoying Disney World with family and friends.
We thank you and wish you the best during your decision process and hope you find tranquility in your decision. We would be honored, beyond excited, and forever grateful for you to choose us. It will be our goal and mission in life to make sure you are confident and pleased in your choice to select us as parents.
Our Home
We live in a fun-loving city surrounded by popular theme parks, attractions, and museums. Our neighborhood is nice and quiet, being just far enough from the hustle of the city. We are in the process of doing small remodels and improvements to our dream home. We have a lovely backyard with a patio area surrounded by neighboring homes and woods, and from time to time you can hear the distant sound of a rooster nearby waking us up each morning. We have 1 cat, her name is Tillie, and she has been our fur child since 2017.
Our Extended Family
We may not have large families and they may not live next door to us, but the love and support we receive is more than anyone could ask for.
Joel's family lives in North Carolina and owns a beach house two hours away where we spend time most summers enjoying the beach. They are Italian, and that means most get-togethers can be loud and full of laughter. His step-siblings live close by, and we get to see them for most holidays and celebrations throughout the year. We are lucky enough to be able to see our nephew, who was adopted, grow up into a wonderful child.
Melissa's mother lives a few hours away from us and visits often. We love to spend most holidays together, and that usually revolves around a lot of food. Both of our families are so excited to add to the mayhem we call family.
