Dear Birthmother,

Dear Expectant Mother,

We want you to know we appreciate what a difficult decision this is for you, and we have nothing but admiration and respect for the courage and love that it takes to consider this. Life can be full of surprises and unexpected obstacles. Whatever circumstances led to you considering adoption, we are amazed by such a selfless act. We would be honored and humbled to be entrusted with your child and would strive every day to prioritize their well being just as you are doing now. We are open to whatever relationship is most comfortable for you. We believe being honest from the beginning is the best path for your child and our family. Your child will know from an early age the story of their biological family.

We are very fortunate to live comfortable lives with supportive families. Our careers enable us to have ample resources to raise a well-rounded child with plenty of opportunities. Our marriage is built on a strong foundation of trust and respect, and we feel very lucky to have met each other at a young age. While we have found success in our careers and marriage, we did not find that same success in our journey to conceive. When we got married, we knew our primary desire was to raise a child in a loving home. We didn’t know at the time that this desire would lead us to adoption, but now we are so thankful to be on this journey. We intend to bring your child up surrounded by love, support, honesty, and happiness. We feel adopting your child would add meaning and joy to our lives, and we are forever grateful to you for this gift.
