Hello and Hola!

We feel so fortunate that you've taken a moment to learn a bit more about our growing family. However, before we get into ourselves, we want to acknowledge the journey you've taken to get to this booklet. We know that journey has likely been, at times, overwhelming and emotional, with complicated questions and daunting answers. We can't even begin to imagine the whirlwind of emotions you must be feeling, but we have great empathy and are in awe of the strength it's taken for you to walk this path thus far.

Our promise to you is that if you choose to place your child in our care, our love and support for them will know no bounds. They will be a part of a family that crosses two continents, will cheer them on during the good and the bad, and is unwaveringly devoted to love for each other. But, most of all, they'll be part of a family that was built on warmth, empathy, support, and camaraderie. They will know of the great path that led them to us and the incredible people who made that possible.

We are a blended couple where our cultures, traditions, and uniqueness have been woven into our lives. Our hearts are open and ready to welcome your child into our family.

Dear Expectant Mother,

Hi! We're Ramez and Trevor, and we are so excited to meet you! We feel very lucky to be here and to have the opportunity to introduce ourselves.

Ramez is an Egyptian Canadian engineer and Trevor is an attorney born and raised in West Texas. On paper, we could not be more different, but we share the most important things. We want to be dads more than anything, we want to raise our kids to be kind, loving, and curious about the world around them. Most of all, we share a love that we can't wait to pass on to our kids. We can't wait to share all of the laughs, tears, and hugs of life with our family.

We promise you that we will commit everything to raising a family that is centered on love, honesty, and kindness. We also promise to respect you, the person you are, and the decisions you make. As you flip through these pages, we hope that we will be able to provide you with a sense of who we are as a family, and why we are here.

We think you are extremely brave for taking this step and know just how lucky the baby is to have such an amazing birth mother who want them to be loved and have all the opportunities they deserve. Ultimately, we hope to meet you so we can be there for you throughout this journey.

Hello,

If we are lucky enough to be chosen by you for your baby's future, We are ready to love and embrace you and the baby.
