Even though our individual challenges are unique we can help each other through this difficult time. 

We have both been faced with the challenge of our lives. You are making a difficult and courageous decision and we admire your strength. Our commitment to you will be to support you throughout the adoption process and reassure you that your child will be placed in a loving and supportive family. We will be forever grateful if you chose us to be the adoptive parents of your child and you would always hold a special place in our hearts.

Parenting is one of the hardest jobs—yet it is the job that we love the most. Adoption answered our prayers in July of 2007 when we welcomed our daughter Addison into our family. We have been through years of infertility and without adoption we would be childless. We are hopeful that our family of three will grow and that Addison can experience life with siblings, but it is out of our control. You have the most difficult decision to make. We are in awe of your dignity, grace, and above all your unselfishness. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for considering us to be the adoptive parents of your child, we look forward to meeting you. more ...

A picture is worth 1,000 words, but we would like to fill you in on the rest. Before we do that we would like to thank you for taking the time to get to know us. We will try to put into words clearly who we are, but know we are honored that you are considering us to be the parents of your child. Our journey to you started in two different countries. Barry was born in Holland, Michigan and is therefore a little Dutch. Denise was born in London, England and is therefore a lot British. We both left our homelands with our own versions of English to teach it to students in Hungary. That is where we met. We then moved to England and were married there, eleven years ago. Shortly after we were married, we moved to Michigan as Barry was offered the job of pastor of the church his parents had been attending. Quite an international journey for both of us, but one place we did not anticipate visiting was the land of infertility, which brings our life journey crossing roads with yours. We believe that God works out all things to His own end although sometimes it is only when you look back that we can see how marvelous His ways are. We saw this work when we decided to adopt and were able to welcome our daughter, Lydia, into our family almost four years ago. Having such a blessed experience with adopting her, we are now hoping to again extend our family through adoption. more ...

Someone once said . . . “Life is what happens while you are busy making plans.” That is one thing we have in common with you, neither of us probably ever thought we’d be making decisions like this in our lives, but at the same time, we cannot deny that there was another plan for us, something more than we first imagined. We are grateful and thankful you are choosing adoption for your child. We cannot begin to imagine the decision process you are going through, but we hope that you will find comfort and assurance in placing your child in a loving and happy home. We are Becky and Bob and we thank you for taking the time to read our profile. We have been married since February 2005 and have always wanted to start a family. Adoption is not new to us; it is part of our everyday life. Bob was adopted when he was an infant. From the time he can remember, his parents spoke openly about his adoption and how much his birthmother loved him. He knows and understands she was unable to care for him at the time and chose adoption as the best option for the two of them. Your child will always know that you made this unselfish decision with the love only a mother can give. more ...

We are so happy that you have chosen to consider us as adoptive parents for your baby. Getting to know us a little better will help make your difficult decision a little easier and give you peace in your heart that you have made the right decision. We admire your courage and respect the love you have for your baby. We share our story in hopes that you find us to be the couple who will provide a lifetime of love, security, and happiness, and a world of opportunities for your little one. If you give us the honor of becoming parents, your baby will be welcomed with unconditional, never-ending love from us and our entire family. Our marriage of nine years is solid and is based on love, respect, honesty, and friendship. We had planned to start our family right away, but it didn’t work out that way. Our personal challenges with infertility have made us a stronger couple and we have decided that what we want more than anything is to be able to share ourselves, our love, and our life with a child. We have chosen to grow our family through adoption. Being able to provide your baby with a loving, supportive, stable family, a strong education, and a world full of opportunities are some of the most important gifts we can give to your baby. more ...

Thank you so much for reading our profile. We can only begin to imagine what you are thinking and feeling right now as you work on putting an adoption plan in place for your child. We think you are very courageous and know that you are acting out of love for your child. We want to do all that we can to make you feel comfortable with your decision. We are turning to adoption because we know that we will never be able to conceive a child. Both of us were treated for medical conditions associated with infertility for several years. As a result of her conditions, Julie had a hysterectomy in 2007. We see adoption as a wonderful option for us to build our family, and we look forward to welcoming a child into our home. We are very excited when we think about filling our home with the sounds of a child. more ...

We cannot imagine a more important decision a person could make than the one now facing you. We hope that you find true peace in your heart knowing you will be led to the right loving family. If after reading our profile, you decide to honor us with the responsibility of loving and raising this child, please know that we will honor your faith in us. We both knew shortly after meeting in 2004 that we had found our ideal life partner. We married later that year. We are so incredibly fortunate that our relationship today is what we hoped and believed it would be when we first met: a strong foundation of friendship, deep love of each other and family, and lots of laughter. From the start, our mutual dream was to share our love and lives with a family of our own. We both grew up with siblings, and some of our favorite memories are those that we spent with our brothers and sisters. more ...

Dear Birthparent(s), We would first like to say thank you! Thank you for putting the best interest of your child first. By opening up your child to adoption you have already made a positive impact on your child’s life. We cannot begin to imagine what you are going through right now. As if pregnancy was not physically and emotionally taxing enough, you have to decide whom you can trust to raise and take care of the child you are carrying. The only thing that we can think of that may be close to what you are experiencing right now is knowing that you can never have children. This is a fact of life that Shannon has faced since she was born. As teachers we have committed ourselves to helping the children of others learn and grow. Now we are ready to take all of the compassion that we have for other people’s children and focus it on a child in our own home. We solemnly vow to do everything in our power to make sure that the child that you are carrying grows up to be a strong, intelligent, compassionate person. Thank you once again. more ...

Dear Birthmother, Thank you for choosing adoption and taking the time to learn more about us. We realize what an important and life changing decision you are about to make for the future of your child and yours as well. We all know God has a plan for everyone and we believe His plan for our family is adoption. We have been married for three years and due to infertility have not been able to conceive naturally so after learning more about the process and through discussion and prayer we decided adoption was the right decision for our family. As parents, we promise to provide a stable and loving home to your baby by providing an environment full of love, kindness, nurturing, patience and guidance. We look forward to meeting you and may God’s wisdom guide you as you make this most important decision for the future of your child and may His compassion and understanding be a comfort you. We would be honored if you would consider us to be the parents to your baby. more ...

The compassion for your baby is shining through as you make the most important decision of your life—choosing the parents who will raise your baby. We admire the strength and love you are displaying for the little one who is growing inside you at this very moment. You are looking out for your baby’s future and it’s an extremely courageous decision you are making. We thank you for taking the time to consider us to be parents to your baby. It’s an honor to even be considered for this awesome responsibility. We have always wanted a family with children. We have been married for 11 years. After learning we were unable to conceive a child, we found adoption to be the right choice for us to build our family. Four years ago, God answered our prayers and blessed us with our son, Dmitry, through adoption. His transition to our family was seamless, and he enriches our lives every day. We’ve dreamed of having more children and look forward to the days our son will have a sibling. more ...

“Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take but by the moments that take our breath away.” Hello, we are Dave and Becky. We are very grateful that you are taking the time to get to know us. We wish to express our gratitude and love for you as you consider the gift of adoption. We truly believe adoption is a gift of love. In choosing adoption, we know you are making one of the hardest and yet most beautiful decision there is. We pray that you will find the peace and comfort you need in making this very difficult decision. We both grew up in loving homes and would like to have a family of our own. We have known since the beginning of our relationship that we could not conceive a child, but we knew we could give a child a loving and nurturing home. We will encourage and support him or her in every way. Most importantly, he or she will always have our unconditional love. Thank you for considering us. more ...
