We realize that this must be the most difficult decision that you have ever had to make, and our hearts go out to you for having the courage to do so. Our hope is that as you read our letter and take a closer look at our lives, it will make you feel more secure of who we are, and what we can offer your baby. We promise to share a life that will be filled with love, happiness and opportunity.
After we met as next-door neighbors, we became fast friends. Our relationship gradually progressed to husband and wife. We've been married for six years and we cannot remember a time that we didn't talk about starting a family and sharing our lives and our love with children. We both believe that parenting is the most rewarding job of all!
We will share your child's adoption story with them at a very early age because we believe honesty and openness will help your child realize that adoption is a very positive and wonderful way to build a family. We'll let them know that their birthparents made a very courageous decision to place their child with us because they loved them so much!
We can't wait to spend summers on the river teaching your child to swim and fish. We'll play hide and seek, create bedtime stories together, and share family traditions like Christmas morning and the 4th of July fireworks! These are all activities we are excited to share together as a family.
Alyssa works at home and has a very flexible schedule. Patrick works in sales, not far from the house. This enables us to share dinners together every night - something we cherish!
Our families are eager to welcome our new addition with open arms! We are committed to providing
a healthy family environment with loving parents and strong family values, much like what we both
experienced growing up.
We admire and respect you for showing such selfless love for your baby and we wish you continued strength in your search for the right family. If you choose us as parents, we would gladly share letters and pictures of your child so that you can remain confident in your choice.
