From Us to You

Dear Expectant Mother,

We would like to say a special thank you for taking time to read our profile. Through our profile, we hope you can learn about our lifestyle and the family environment in which your child will be brought up. We understand that your decision is a great level of maturity and selfless love to provide a great future for your child. We greatly admire and respect your brave decision and appreciate you for considering us.

We got to know each other in 1998 and got married in 2000. Since that time we have had a supportive, stable, and quality relationship.  In the uncertainties of our modern and postmodern age, we were able to keep our marriage for 22 years by loving, respecting, and caring for each other. If we are chosen as adoptive parents, we promise to honor your love toward your child and raise him or her with the same love, respect, and care. We cannot wait to bring a child to our beautiful and peaceful world that we have made ours.  We strongly believe that this love, respect, and care will increase by having a child in our home.

We live in a beautiful town with a good livability score in Georgia. It is on the list of good cities in the south to raise a family. Our home is in a lovely and quiet neighborhood and is close to many facilities such as schools, churches, firefighters, etc. We have an active and healthy lifestyle. We enjoy traveling to different places and experiencing different cultures. On the weekends we usually go for a walk at a park along the river and engage in spontaneous activity.

We know you made this decision from a place of love so you will have a special place in our hearts.  We understand you may feel overwhelmed but what we can tell you is that our reason to adopt is motivated by pure love.  We assure you that we will fiercely love and support your child unconditionally in any moment of his or her life. We hope your life will be full of peace and joy.

Why We are Choosing to Adopt

We have strived for a long time to have a baby. We are incredibly excited to welcome your loved baby to our home, and can’t wait to meet your sweet child and hold them in our arms. They will be fiercely loved.

We have tried to grow our family by having a child or children either through natural ways or adoption. We tried IVF three times but all failed. Therefore, we decided to consider adoption. We started to search about adoption and learned many valuable things. The process made us think about many other aspects of being parents. We realized that adoption is another way to extend our family and our love. It also is a way to allow us to share our love and life with a child and have unique experiences. We are more than ready to share our lives and loves and home with a baby.

We read many adoption stories.  One story made us think deeply about adoption. Paul and Clara Jobs, who struggled with infertility, adopted Steve Jobs. He became one of the most successful people not only for himself but also for the world.

About Farideh, by Hassan

Farideh comes from a big family, and ample love and unconditional support from her parents and siblings made her a determined and self-confident person in her life. What really has attracted me to her in our marriage and before, has been her determination to finish difficult work with accomplishment while keeping our family environment very lovely. Not only is she very good at managing her job, but she keeps our home together with her warm touch through decoration, cleanliness, and cooking. She is a very good communicator and keeps things lively. Just as an example to say, I have seen her work hard in three different universities, in three different countries, with three different languages – all with high levels of achievement. Being in different countries with different cultures made her more open to different ethnicities and races. She takes her responsibilities very seriously inside and outside of the home and her emotional intelligence makes her a unique person in her personal and professional life.  She has always been a family-maker. I am looking forward to seeing her teaching these same qualities to your child.

About Hassan, by Farideh

Hassan comes from a big family too. His parents were full supporters of his pursuit of a good education. He received a bachelor, two master’s, and one Ph.D. in three different countries with three different languages. He always tries to learn new things and follows trends. He loves to help other people and friends in any way he can. He is a hard-working person, who never gives up if it is the right thing to do despite many difficulties. As for his love towards children, he always establishes a very good relationship with them. He is a good listener to children, and he plays with them. He plays soccer, chess, card games, badminton, and more with our friends’ children and I can’t wait to see the fun he will have with a child of our own. Being in different situations has made him a patient person to achieve his goal with steady moves. I can’t wait to see him transfer his great and broad experience to your child.

Lifestyle

We are artists of our lives and try to keep life colorful, meaningful, and enjoyable with different activities. We are physically very active and pay attention to having a healthy lifestyle. We both are early risers and wake up around 6 AM, then do some exercises and prepare breakfast. We always have breakfast, as an important meal of the day, and then get ready to go to work at jobs we enjoy.  After work, Farideh usually makes dinner and Hassan sets the table. We enjoy our dinner while having a chat about our day. For us, the best time of the day is the evening because each of us has evening routines.  Hassan usually reads, plays chess, and works out. Farideh enjoys listening to music, reading, working out, or doing meditation. We believe that family is important, and we do activities together such as short walks in the neighborhood, watching movies, and playing billiards, board games, and card games on weekday evenings. On the weekends, we enjoy outdoor activities like going for a long walk near the river, picnics, shopping, bowling, and visiting our friends. We also enjoy taking day trips to different places on weekends. Every activity that we do together is our source of energy and happiness. We are ready to share our happiness with your loved child who will make our lives more meaningful, colorful, and cheerful.

We mainly work from the office but sometimes we work from home as well, which allows us to take care of your child and spend more time with him or her. Our company supports us with 4 paid weeks for paternity/maternity. Afterward, we will still be able to take some leave since our team of instructors has a few more instructors to cover for others when someone has an emergency, is on vacation, or has appointments. This will enable us to spend more time with your child to take care of them.

We plan to have a close friend, who is an experienced babysitter, take care of your child while we are at work. This will give us peace of mind that your child has been entrusted to a reliable person in our home. She is able to do different nursery games to keep them engaged and smiling. The second plan is childcare. We have several childcare facilities in our town for different ages from 6 weeks to 5+. Some of them have many years in business, good reputations, and experienced staff and we will choose one of the best for your child. They will have many tools and techniques to support a child to develop socially, emotionally, physically, and intellectually. While we are with your child in afternoons and weekends, we will enjoy every moment of those times to do a variety of family activities at home, taking him/her out to playgrounds, playing with peers at friends’ homes, and with the neighborhood children.

Home & Neighborhood

Our lovely home is located in a good part of the city. It is a one-story building in a peaceful neighborhood. Our neighborhood is a diverse one and there are Americans, Asians American, African Americans, Middle Eastern Americans, and more who all live here. Our home has a big back and front yard which makes for a great place for playing, welcoming our friends and family, and having backyard picnics. The baby room is furnished with a crib, dresser, and car seat. We will paint and decorate it for your future baby. The thing that we like most about our house is the proximity to amenities like schools, parks, a library, a fire station, restaurants, and grocery stores. It is also convenient to go to work. It is just 15-20 minutes away from our workplace.

Our Families & Friends

Hassan’s brother lives in Massachusetts with his family and Farideh’s brother lives in California with his family. We visit each other on different occasions and are in touch often by video and phone. We visited family members, who live out of the country, recently in Istanbul, Turkey. We have decided to meet with them in different countries such as the Republic of Georgia and the Republic of Azerbaijan in the coming years. We also have friends who live in other states in the US. We like to visit each other when we can to spend time together. Our friends in our town have children of different ages and we have a good and fun time whenever we get together. Some of the things we like to do with them are going on picnics and taking trips.

Family Traditions

Another thing we can’t wait to share with your child is our traditions.  One is the beginning of the new year in Spring on March 21. On that day we get together with families and friends, wear new clothes, cook and eat a variety of foods, listen to music, dance, and play games. Another one is “Yalda Night”, the longest night of the year on December 21. We stay awake all night with family members to welcome longer days and sun. We enjoy special foods and fruits on these days as well.

Racial & Cultural Diversity

We live in a diverse neighborhood with different races and ethnicities including Americans, Asian-Americans, African Americans, and Middle Eastern-American with a nice harmony. Our job, in language and area studies, requires us to work with colleagues of different races, ethnicities, and backgrounds from different parts of the world and teach students with different races, ethnicities, and backgrounds from across the country. Living in populous and big cities in three different countries, living with people of many races and cultures together has contributed to us seeing diversity as a societal wealth.

What We Will Share

You always will have a special place in our hearts and you will always be a mother who made a brave decision for your child’s future. We will be honest with your child and give him or her plenty of opportunities to ask questions about their adoption story and about you. We will help your loved child to find meaningful answers to their questions. To have this discussion with your child, we hope we learn more about you.
