Unplanned Pregnancy - Choose Adoption

Andrew and Monica

Thank you is such a small word that does not begin to express the gratitude we feel towards you for your tremendous act of love and courage in making adoption the plan for your child. There are many ways to give life and you have chosen to engage in this sacred act by not only giving your child physical life, but also choosing to give your child life in a family that you have selected. That takes an abundance of not only love and courage but also trust. We are grateful that you are considering us and are taking the time to read our profile. We have a deep desire to expand our family to include children and the challenge of infertility has led us to the path of adoption. We believe that God always has a plan, and as God has led us through every step of our journey together, we are confident that God will continue to lead us and you in finding the right family for your child. more …

Andrew and Tracy

We know you are busy with a million other things, and want to find the very best home for your baby. We admire your courage in making this difficult decision. We can’t imagine what it’s like to choose a family for your child, but we are glad you’re taking the time to read our profile as you search for the people you want to care for your baby. We are excited about becoming parents, and want to welcome your little boy or girl into our family. Our own families are a big part of our lives. They show us how important it is to have parents who can love, teach and watch a baby grow. When we discovered we could not give birth to children ourselves, we decided to turn to adoption to help us create the family we always wanted. We know we have a stable, loving home that will be a great place for a baby. Though ours will be a semi-open adoption, we will respect your wishes concerning how much you want to talk to and work with us. If you want to have your privacy, we understand. If you would like to meet with us, we will do everything we can to meet with you. We will be open with our child about the adoption. Early in his or her life, our child will know he or she has been adopted, and that there are birth parents that share as much love for the baby as we do. more …

Andy and Kirstie

Thank you for giving us a chance to share a little about ourselves with you. We have a tremendous amount of respect and admiration for you as you consider making an adoption plan for your child. When we began this journey, we began to pray for you and the life you are bringing into this world. We have been married for 13 years and have two biological sons, Avery (7) and Alex (5). They bring tremendous joy and purpose to our lives. We always knew we wanted to have a family and being parents is the most rewarding and important job we’ll ever have. Our family, however, does not quite feel “complete”. We have always had a heart for adoption and have watched several close friends grow their families this way. It has always been an option for us, regardless of our abilities to conceive. Now that we are not able to conceive any more children ourselves, we are praying that God would bless us once more through the miracle of adoption. This profile will tell you more about who we are, how much we love our family, and our hopes for the future. more …

Andy and Sarah

We would like to begin by expressing our feelings about you. We will always consider you as a strong, selfless, and loving mother. Your child will grow up knowing this. The two of us realize you have much to think about as you decide what is right for your precious child. We have wanted to start a family for several years but after working through infertility and the loss of a pregnancy we have found that thru adoption we have renewed hope. We met in college during our freshman year and it was love at first laugh. In some ways our journey to this point has made our marriage the strongest it has ever been. We truly love and respect each other. Your child will gain from our strength and love. There will never be a question of how much love we have for him/her. We will be sure they know you love them too. Our family and friends were thrilled to hear the news that we wanted to adopt. It has been a real healing experience to know a child may be waiting out there for us. Our dreams of having a family may come true because of your loving choice to share your child with us. We appreciate being considered in this adoption. more …

We are excited that you have taken the opportunity to look at our profile. We understand that your greatest concern is finding a loving family for your baby. We would be thrilled to welcome a baby into our lives. Four years ago, we were very fortunate to adopt our daughter. She is the love of our lives. Family is the most important part of our lives. We have been happily married for ten years, in a relationship built on love and trust. Having struggled with infertility, the gift of parenthood through adoption is very special to us. Our home and lives are ready to welcome a new baby into our family. We were raised in the same small community and attended college together, sharing a similar background and friends. Our common interests brought us back to the college town where we now make our home. As a family, we enjoy trips to Chicago, Florida, and Michigan, baseball games, going to the beach, bicycle rides, and holidays with our extended family. We love going to parks, festivals, the county fair, skiing, camping and swimming. more …

Ben and Linette

Thank you for the opportunity to introduce ourselves to you. We hope that this letter will help you to see that we are a loving, strong, and stable couple able to give a child a wonderful life. We hope that through this letter you will see in us the qualities you feel are important in raising a child and that we can provide security as well as much love, happiness, and the opportunity to be anything they want. We began planning for parenthood six years ago when we were married. We have worked very hard and saved to be able to provide the best possible life for a family. This would be our first child and we hope for more in the future. Our children will always have a stay at home mother available to meet their needs and provide guidance and a father who is able to be available whenever and wherever he is needed or wanted. We both come from very close and strong families with traditional Christian values and we feel well prepared to provide a safe and stable home life for our children. more …

Chad and Susanna

Dear Birth Mom, Thank you for considering us as a potential family for your child. We can’t begin to understand what you’re going through, of course, but we admire the love and courage it takes to make the decisions you’re making. We promise you we would offer your child unconditional love and a rich family life, filled with hugs, kisses, and laughter. The two of us met in 1998 and married on a beautiful warm day in March 2001. In addition to loving each other deeply, we’re best friends and have a lot of fun just spending time together. We always wanted to share our love with children, and when we found out that we were infertile, we immediately knew that adoption was the right decision for us. We were overjoyed to adopt our son, Liam, in 2010. The three of us are a very happy little family, and we’d like to share our love and happiness with one more special little person. We’re both college professors, but each of us teaches only every other day. As a result, one of us will be with your child at all times. We’re grateful to have jobs that allow both parents, not just one, to spend whole days with a child. We waited a long time to become parents, and we eagerly share the joys and work of parenting equally. more …

Hello and thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking the time to learn more about us as you prepare your adoption plan for your precious child. We admire your strength and the obvious love you have for your unborn child and we know this child will always hold a special place in your heart. We both love children and have always wanted a family to share this love with. We struggled for years with infertility and after miscarriages and many procedures we were finally able to conceive our son, Brendan. Our pregnancy was a scary time, as we were high risk, but we thank God every day for giving us a beautiful, healthy son (who loves kids and will make an awesome big brother). Our chances of conceiving again are highly unlikely and we feel we need to follow our hearts, which led us to adoption. Bringing a child to our family through adoption would be a dream come true, we will adore this child and make sure they always feel loved. more …

Chris and Emily

While you are reading, you are already in our thoughts and prayers. We are honored that you are reviewing our family profile. Adoption is a precious gift and we respect and admire you for thinking about this decision. We are awed by your courage and great love in considering an adoption plan. We have always dreamed of being parents. We are overcome with excitement to welcome another baby into our loving family. Adoption is the path God has chosen for us to make our dream come true and we are so very blessed by our daughter Eleanor, adopted at birth in 2008. We cannot wait to welcome another child into our home to complete our family. Be assured, we are committed to providing a caring and stable family environment where your child will experience every opportunity and joy we can offer. We are committed to our important roles as parents. We are ready for the sleepless nights with a teething baby and nervous floor pacing with a teenage driver. We want to kiss scraped knees and play the Tooth Fairy. We look forward to helping with homework and chaperoning field trips. We love being Mom and Dad. more …

Chris and Laura

Dear Birthmother, We cannot begin to know what it feels like to walk in your shoes. We cannot imagine all of the emotions you are feeling as you read through these profiles. But what we can do is say thank you. Thank you for your courageous decision to make an adoption plan for your baby. We have so much respect for you and for your decision. If you choose us to adopt your child we promise you that she or he will know we thank God for you, and we always will. We also want you to know that adoption is our first choice for building our family. We have talked about adopting a child since before we were married. Laura has some issues that make it unlikely she could give birth to a healthy baby. She told Chris all about this while they were dating, so adoption has been our plan for having a family since Day 1 of our married life. Adoption has never been our back up plan. Adoption is exactly how we dearly want to have our family! more …
