We consider you our hero. Making this difficult decision to give your child an opportunity that they may not have had otherwise is to be admired. If you choose us, please know that this baby will be cared for and loved dearly.
The most important thing we will give your baby is our unconditional love. We can’t wait to see God’s plan for our family unfold. We have faith in Him that you, as a birth mother, and we, as adoptive parents, will both have peace knowing that this is His plan for all of us.
As we start this letter, we are sitting in our cozy basement watching Monsters, Inc. with our adopted child Alex, who was born in February of 2007. And as we watch him giggle and eat popcorn, and ask us questions about the “friendly monsters”, we dream of giving him a brother or sister to share these times with, as well as so many others.
First of all, thank you for considering us in the most courageous and unselfish decision of your life. We are Cathy and Jr. We would be so grateful to be able to give your baby the love, sense of family, and the resources to make his or her dreams, as well as ours, come true. We’ll make sure that he or she knows how brave and selfless you are for giving your baby this opportunity.
We are truly blessed and honored that you are taking this time to get to know a little about us and how our journey has taken us to you. Wherever your journey may take you, we hope you find comfort and peace in knowing that your sacrifice means more than any words could ever say and will make our family joyous and complete. Even though we have struggled with infertility we can finally look back and see God was preparing our hearts for the beautiful gift of adoption. We promise as adoptive parents to provide unconditional love and support so that your child may reach their dreams.
We are so excited to have the opportunity to adopt again with the help of Adoption Network. The first time we adopted was 2½ years ago, when we were blessed with our daughter. We are now ready to add on to our family. It gives us joy and warmth knowing we can share our love and lives with children. We have much to offer: a loving home, a caring sibling, family support, financial stability, a strong commitment to loving the Lord and a lifetime of learning experiences that we will be able to share together. We are so grateful to you, for considering adoption.
There is a saying that my mother told me that we would like to share with you: “We didn’t give your life to you, but God knew what to do. He planned it out so long ago, he knew just what you’d need. He found us sadly longing for a baby of our own. Then, when the time was right, he would open all the doors and bring you home that night, and bless our life with this little miracle.” Our hearts are filled with love and compassion for you for this wonderful choice you have made. We hope that you find peace in your decision of giving us this chance to become the parents that we have longed to be.
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 love our dogs very much, but for a long time now we’ve sensed that someone is missing—a child. Our yearning for a baby has grown as we’ve watched our dear friends, Robbie and Susan, get pregnant and have two beautiful children, Julia and Moses. We’ve grown closer to these babies than we could’ve ever imagined because, unexpectedly, Susan passed away. Since then, we’ve grown into an extended family. We spend a lot of time at Robbie’s changing diapers, weathering the “terrible twos,” and laughing a lot! We are getting wonderful hands-on experience in the deep joy and the gritty reality of raising children.
It is impossible to sum up everything about us in just a few paragraphs, however, we hope that as you read our profile and look through our pictures that you will get a sense of who we are, the love we share, the parents we look forward to being, and can begin to imagine the life that we would provide for your baby.
| Although we come from very different backgrounds, we were raised with many of the same values: hard work, honesty, faith, love, and respect were, and still are, important to our families. We believe that we have so much to offer our child, much more than material things. |
“Famiglia, Famiglia, Famiglia” is Italian for “Family, Family, Family”. It means family comes first. Salvatore and I have made choices to allow this to happen in our lives. We found right from the start that we value the same things – family, friends and faith. Salvatore and I have grown together and now have a strong foundation upon which to build a family. We look so forward to our family growing.
We both feel very fortunate with the flexible way we live our lives. Our family comes first. Mike and I, Joelle, and all of our families are so very excited and happy and look forward to our family growing. Joelle asks us all the time about when her baby brother or sister will be born and come home to be with us. We tell her to pray and hopefully it will happen soon. Our hearts are filled with love and hope.
| We were married 17 years before we were blessed with our children, Emily – 11 and Seth – 8. We want a third child and believe that third child will come to us through adoption. We would love to hold another small being in our arms and give – not just material things but more important – give of ourselves, our time, and our love to someone special who comes to us through someone´s act of giving. If you choose our family to love and raise your child, we would feel so special and blessed by God. |
