RACE OF CHILD INTERESTED IN ADOPTING:
Dear Birthmother,
Thank you so much for taking the time to learn about us. We know this is not an easy journey, and we want to honor the courage, love, and strength it takes to even consider adoption for your baby. You are not just part of your baby’s story—you are their beginning, and we will always honor that.
Adoption has been in our hearts for many years. Nicki dreamed of adopting since she was young, inspired by friends touched by adoption and foster care. When we married, we hoped to grow our family both biologically and through adoption. After years of infertility, we knew adoption was the path meant for us—not as a backup plan, but as something deeply right.
If you choose us, your child will grow up in a home full of stability, love, laughter, and adventure. We’ll spend our days exploring the world through travel and stories and engaging in our community with our friends and families—including the richness of Robert’s Mexican heritage, our child’s cultural heritage, and those beyond our own. Our home will be a place of joy, safety, and belonging, where your child always knows their story began with your love and courage.
We are so grateful for your consideration and for the opportunity to share our hearts with you.
With thanks and respect,
Robert & Nicki
Our Home
We live in a ranch-style home in Georgia with four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a fenced-in backyard that’s perfect for playing, grilling, and gathering around the firepit. Robert has built some of our furniture, which makes our home feel extra personal and cozy. The kitchen is Nicki’s favorite space—there’s always something simmering or baking, and it’s where people naturally gather.
Our neighborhood is safe, welcoming, and diverse, with parks and good schools nearby. Kids ride their bikes in the cul-de-sac, and families look out for one another. We don’t have pets at the moment, but Nicki loves watching the birds, bunnies, and squirrels that visit our yard. We dream of one day seeing our child running around in this space.
Our Extended Family
Nicki grew up in Wisconsin in a big, close-knit family with a sister and three brothers, lots of laughter, and plenty of sports. She visits often to spend time with her parents, siblings, and a lively crew of nieces and nephews. We love visiting our family in the Midwest at Christmas time especially so we can enjoy the snow!
Robert grew up in a military family and is especially close with his older sister. His father is Mexican, and while Robert doesn’t speak Spanish yet, Nicki speaks some, and we have learned to celebrate that part of our heritage through food, traditions, and cultural experiences. Robert’s family and background taught him to value people from many different walks of life, and that has shaped how we live today.
As adults, we’ve lived in South Africa, Texas, North Carolina, and Georgia, building an amazing “chosen family” of friends along the way. We also have a beautiful, diverse church community and can’t wait to welcome a child into our circle.
Between grandparents, siblings, cousins, and close friends, our child will be surrounded by love, encouragement, and a sense of belonging—a whole village ready to cheer them on through every phase of life.
