Our most memorable moment is the birth of our first child. We adopted our son in 2014 through the amazing gift of adoption. We got the call our birth mom was in labor and headed straight to the hospital. We were able to visit with her and stay with her as much as she needed. When the time came for our little man to enter the world we were right there by her side, and when he let out his first cry it was the most amazing sound in the world. We will never forget that moment when we truly became parents. It was so amazing for us because we had tried so long to add to our family.

We are very excited to see our son become a big brother and watch him grow and learn during this new experience. As parents, we love the quality time we get to spend with a child. We love being able to watch that child grow and learn. Watching them become their own little person with new personalities is so much fun. We look forward to teaching another child how to walk and talk and ride a bike. We look forward to them finding their own interest and supporting them through their life's journey. We are very excited to be able to help a child find their place in this world and watch them learn and grow each day.

We love to drive our golf cart around the yard or down the back country roads. We get to take a nice drive around the neighborhood and just enjoy the ride. We also love to take our dog, Charlie, with us on the rides. He loves it! We also enjoy watching movies in the theatre and having dinner out after.

Ron loves RC (remote control) cars. He has lots of them he works on and runs in races. He tries to race as many times as possible in the summer and he has made some great friends through his years of racing. Ron looks forward to being able to share his passion with another child.

Jennifer loves spending time with her siblings. She takes them to lunch and shopping. Jennifer also enjoys working in the flower gardens and baking. Jennifer enjoys crafting and making fun projects with our son. We hope to continue all the fun things with another child.

Our promise to you is we will be the very best parents we can be for this child. We will love them with our whole heart and give them the best life we can. We will provide them all the things they need in their life and will teach them to grow and learn and become who they are meant to be. They will have so much love from us, their brother and the many grandparent's, uncles, aunts, and cousins they will have.

We promise to keep in touch with you as much as you want us too. We will send you updates, pictures, and letters to let you see this child and how they are doing. We will never be able to thank you enough for providing us with the amazing gift of raising this child and adding to our dream of having another child.

We promise to give this child the best possible life we can.

We live in a four-bedroom, three-bathroom home in Michigan. Our home is on ten acres of land. We enjoy driving our golf cart around our property and playing with our small Chihuahua and little boy in the yard.

Our neighborhood is a diverse mix of ages and ethnicities.

We are close to town with shopping and restaurants. There are parks nearby with playgrounds for a child to play on. The elementary school is only five minutes away. It has a wonderful new playscape for the children and it is open to the public as well. All the new equipment is brightly colored and would be great for any child.

We have many local farmers markets that we love to go to in the spring and all through the summer.

The local towns have hometown festivals with rides, games, and parades. Over the Fourth of July there is a rodeo festival with bull riding and games for children. They have fireworks and a big barbecue dinner.

We feel so fortunate to have a large extended family. We both have brothers and sisters, parents, and nieces and nephews. Everyone in our family is supportive of our journey to add to our family.

Many of our family members live close by. They are all within an hour or less of a drive from our home. We all try and get together frequently to have dinner and just catch up. Jennifer's family loves to play cards when we get together and have many different games we play. Sometimes more than one game goes on at a time.

Every year around Labor Day Jennifer's grandparents have a pond party in the backyard around a campfire. Everyone makes a dish to pass and we roast marshmallows.

Every June Ron's family goes to the car show in St. Ignace, Michigan. We try and join them whenever possible and enjoy riding ferry boats to Mackinaw Island and swimming in the lake.

We are excited to be able to share this time in our life with our family and we are thankful for their support during this adoption journey.

Hi! We are Ron and Jennifer and we want to thank you for taking the time to read our profile. We are very grateful to be considered as prospective parents if you proceed with adoption. We don't know your circumstances, but we understand you have some difficult decisions to make. We appreciate you considering adoption and are here to help where ever we can.

We have been married for thirteen years and together for fifteen. We have a wonderful, strong, and fun relationship. When we discussed adding a child to our lives we decided adoption would be a great way to grow our family. Our family is very supportive of our choice to become second time parents through adoption and your child will grow up with a brother, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins who will love him or her. We are very excited to become parents again and share with another child the traditions and values we were raised with.

We want you to know even though we cannot even imagine the choices you are being faced with we want you to know that this child will know their adoption story from the beginning. They will know about you and how you wanted them to have a life full of love and opportunities. They will know you made a selfless choice to give them that life. We want you to know we will share with you the milestones in their life through pictures and letters. Jennifer loves taking pictures so there will be many we can share through the years, and you can watch as this child grows.

As parents we look forward to watching another child grow and learn and develop their own personalities. We look forward to teaching them about the traditions we had as kids like new pajamas on Christmas Eve or finding Easter Eggs. We are excited to share our love of traveling and having adventures on vacation. We will support them in their interest and encourage them when they need a little boost, we will help them overcome their fears and be there for all their ups and downs.

We can't wait to fill our home and our lives with another child and be there for them as they take their first steps, say their first word and all the exciting moments any child has. We will kiss away all the scraped knees and elbows as they learn to ride bikes and celebrate their wins or losses during their sporting events. This is our second child, so they will grow up with a big brother and we can't wait to see them grow together.

Thank you for reading this letter and for the consideration as potential parents. Just as we can't know what you are going through you will never know how much we look forward to becoming parents and raising a child. If you choose us you will never fully understand our gratitude that you would give us such an amazing and selfless gift.

Sincerely,

Ron & Jennifer
