Even though we haven’t met, we think about you all the time. We already have tremendous respect for your courage and are excited to get to know more about you. Your selfless decision to put your child’s needs before your own has already demonstrated what a loving person you are. It could not have been easy to consider the adoption process and we are grateful that you are giving hopeful couples, like us, the opportunity to become parents. Although, the circumstances that could ultimately bring us together are very different, our collective wishes for your child are the same. We would be so honored to raise your child in our loving home and family. We firmly believe that adoption is the most deliberate way a family can welcome a child into their lives. Having both been touched by adoption, we know, firsthand, what it is like to be raised by committed parents and intend to follow their examples as we begin to raise our own family.
We have a wonderful relationship and make each other laugh everyday. In each other, we have found a devoted partner in life, the person whom we create and enjoy the great times and lean on during bad times. Now, we’re ready to open our arms and offer our hearts to a baby through adoption. It is true we are unable to have biological children, but both of us truly believe adoption is the way God intended for us to have a child. We don’t see adoption as a second choice.
| We started dating in high school and got married seven years later. We wanted to buy a house and get established financially before starting our family. A few years later we had a nice house in a great family oriented neighborhood and had the financial stability to allow me to stay at home with our child, so we started trying to have a baby. After years of medical treatment we realized that making our dreams come true would require us to take a different path than we expected. That led us to adoption. |
We want to say thank you… for so many reasons. Although we haven’t met yet, we are going to make some promises to you and this child that will always hold true. Our decision to adopt was actually something that felt right for both of us. We just want so much to be parents, and to build a beautiful family with strong bonds of love, positive encouragement, strength and humor. We have so many blessings to share and we promise to provide your child with an amazing life full of opportunity. To be given the chance would mean the world to us.
We are Stephanie and David. Thank you for considering us to raise your precious child. We have yearned for another baby for many years now, and are so grateful for this opportunity to experience the miracle of life once again. We are committed to doing everything in our power to ensure your faith in us is rewarded.
…and they lived happily ever after! The End.
Thank you for helping us to close one chapter in our lives and begin another full of adventures! You are a miraculous, strong individual for the decision you have made: creating a precious miracle and providing us with the gift of life. You have a strong heart; we will raise our precious gift with the same kind heart you have shown and instill this gift of giving in this new life.
We want you to know that we are praying for you daily. We can’t imagine how difficult and unselfish this decision has been for you. We don’t pretend to understand all that you are going through but we would consider it a privilege to walk beside you along this journey. Our prayer is that God will give you abundant grace and the confirmation that you have made the right decision.
“We” are Garth and Tracie. We are husband and wife who are fortunate enough to be best friends. We found each other late in life, but we knew right away that we were made for each other. We met in November of 1995 and were married in September 1997. We were very excited to start our own family. After years of trying, we discovered that both of us are totally unable to have children. When the doctor told us this “solemn” news, we rejoiced! We knew that God clearly intended for us to grow our family through adoption.
As we sit down together and talk about what we want to put in our letter, our thoughts go out to you. What can we say to the woman who is thinking about making the ultimate sacrifice for the sake of her child? Your compassion, commitment, and love for your child are extraordinary and inspiring. What can we say to the woman who may help us add a child to our family? Words can’t describe how much being parents means to us. Thank you would be a start, but there aren’t enough words in our hearts to describe our gratitude.
Wow! I can’t imagine the feelings you must have looking through all these pages, trying to figure out who is the right person for you and your baby. Well, we hope we are them! The two of us met when Court was going back to school in 2002. Missy was living and working in the town he went to college in. Court was just coming off a hiatus from school and ran into the love of his life. We were both hooked immediately and have been together ever since. We married in 2004, and after moving to
Since we’ve been together we have always felt, good or bad, that everything happens for a reason. We believe this is what brought us to you. It is hard for us to imagine what you are going through as you make this decision, all we can do is admire your strength and the respect that you have for the life and future of your baby. Adoption is a topic we discussed well before marriage; it has always been part of our family plan. We now know each child we will parent will come to us through this gift. We appreciate you taking the time to get to know us.
We assure you that your child will be surrounded by endless and unconditional love, and we promise that your child will be raised knowing the abundance of love you showed them when you decided to place them for adoption. We hope and pray that as you read this letter, a presence of peace embraces you and you feel that you have found the parents of your most precious gift; life for your child.
We love our life, but it feels like something is missing. We need little rubber boots full of mud by the backdoor, right by Daddy’s. We need cookie dough fingerprints on the oven door, because we aren’t able to wait for the cookies to be done.
