Thank you for taking the time to read this letter to get to know us. It is difficult to put into words what adopting a child would mean to us. We always knew we wanted a family even before we got married. We tried invitro a few years ago with no success. We are a loving and committed couple who want nothing more than to welcome a child into our home. We know that having a baby will change our lives forever and we can’t wait to begin the journey.
We welcome you into our family through your child and thank you for considering us to become a part of your child’s life. Your kindness and selflessness are appreciated more than you will ever know. We hope to speak with you and learn what you believe is most important for your child.
Writing you these few lines, made us wonder if words can even express all the respect and admiration both of us have for you. All the choices you have and the path that you choose to pursuit. How brave! Thanks for the blessing you are giving us. If you choose us as parents of the baby you’re carrying, we can assure you, that there’s nothing we won’t do to fill that little heart with family love, security and the conviction that with God’s blessing anything is possible. That’s our commitment to you; that we will fill that little mind with education and a childhood full of fun and laughter, supported by loving discipline.
First and foremost we would like you to know that we sincerely admire your strength and courage in making the decision to put your baby up for adoption. Without loving, caring, strong women, such as yourself, we would never be able to have the family we always dreamed of. We want you to know that your child will ALWAYS know how much you loved them, how strong a woman you are, and how much we cherish that he or she is part of our lives. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts that you are taking the time to read about us and get to know us.
Parenting can be very demanding, yet Jon and I welcome this challenge knowing that we will finally be parents. We will take the responsibility of being parents seriously, and your child will be well cared for. We look forward to the day when we can bring our baby home and begin our lives as a family. We have lots of family and close friends that will be there to support us, welcome this child home, and love him or her unconditionally.
We both come from different parts of the world but our upbringings were similar because family was and is a central focus for both of us. Our devotion to our families keeps us close although the distance can be great. We each have our own interests but our interests blend together to create us. We are unique to most other couples we know in that we enjoy doing things that other couples consider “kids stuff” as well as make each other laugh.
Thank you for taking the time to get to know our family. Whatever has brought you to this decision; we want you to know we admire your courage and your strength. Recognizing that you want more for your child than what you feel you can provide, and finding a loving family that will be able to provide everything wanted or needed, is the most loving act a mother can accomplish for her unborn baby. Your child will always know that he or she is loved by us. He or she will also know that they were brought to us through the love of someone who put her child’s needs above her own.
Will you be our sweet little girl or our silly little boy? Either way we’ll swell with pride, when with the world we share our joy. Will you be our son or daughter? You know it really doesn’t matter. We’ll love you just the same.
You have made a very important decision out of love for your child, and unselfishly you will be giving the greatest gift of all to people who otherwise might never experience the joy of parenthood. We know this must have been a difficult decision to make and hope that you understand what a truly special person you are as you place your child in an environment you have selected in order to secure a brighter future for both of you. We are an infertile couple that would love to have the opportunity to raise a family and perhaps that dream will begin with you. |
We would like to thank you for taking time to consider our home for your child. We realize that you are about to make a very serious and difficult decision. We admire your decision and courage to find an adoption plan for your child. We hope and pray that you consider letting us parent your child.
We are Seth and Lauren and although we’ve been together just over two years it feels as if we’ve known each other for a lifetime. It took us the first part of our lives to find each other but now that we have, every day is amazing.
Becoming parents is a step that we have been looking forward to since we found each other. We met in graduate school, and knew after only a short time of being together that this was the perfect fit. Dzung grew up in Pennsylvania as one of 10 kids – an amazing family that has grown to include spouses and 13 nieces and nephews. We cannot wait to introduce our children to this group of cousins! Deb grew up in southern California with a smaller immediate family, but with an extended family of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins that is very close knit. After finishing our degrees, we made our home in beautiful sunny California, which afforded both job opportunities and the ability to be very close to Deb’s family. Everyone in our family is so excited to welcome our future children and surround them with love and support, regardless of how they come to be with us.
We’ve always wanted to have a family. Even through our unsuccessful fertility attempts, we never gave up the dream of becoming parents. Truth be told, we always knew in our hearts that adoption was the right path for us. All you have to do is say the word “adoption” and it makes us both smile from ear to ear. We believe adopting a child is the greatest gift we will ever receive.
The child that comes into our home will grow up knowing it was your courage, strength and unconditional love that brought us together. We cannot begin to understand the emotions you are going through, we can only hope we can be of some comfort in your journey with our promise that your child will be cherished and celebrated everyday. Because of your unselfishness in choosing adoption, couples like us are able to fulfill their lifelong dream of becoming a family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you as you make this decision.
