Mama, we don't know you. We don't know your story. We don't know your past. We don't know your pain or struggles. We have never walked a day in your shoes, but we want you to hear and truly believe these next words. We pray that regardless if you choose our family or not, that any ounce of shame, guilt, or unworthiness immediately flees you. We pray you feel peace with your decision and that you begin to view yourself as a strong, selfless woman who is loved, chosen, and worthy. Before you make any decisions, it is so important that you start to beleive that.

With that being said, Hi. We are Shayla and Brett.

Hi there!

First off, we would just like to say, thank you for taking the time to get to know us better. Our names are Cody and Morgan, and we are unbelievably grateful that you are taking the time to learn about our family and look forward to hopefully getting to know you as well.

We understand that the decision you are considering is as equally courageous and selfless as it is challenging and scary. There are so many emotions we feel and cannot begin to imagine the emotions you may feel as well. Throughout our journey, we have learned that when making a monumental decision such as this, it is important to talk freely about how you're feeling and any fears you may have. We hope that you have someone in your life that you are not only able to discuss those feelings and fears with, but also your hopes and dreams for the future.

While you have some tough decisions ahead of you, please know that you are incredibly brave, and we commend you. We know that you wish for your child to have a loving family and bright future, whether that is through you choosing to parent or making an adoption plan. If you decide on an adoption plan, and select us as the adoptive parents, we promise to love your child unconditionally, and to welcome you both into our lives with open arms.

With Love, Cody, Morgan and Raegan

We want to thank you for taking the time to get to know a little about us. We can't pretend to imagine what must be going through your mind, the weight of making this decision for your child. We whole heartedly believe in open adoption, and feel that the more people who love a child, the better! If you decide to create an adoption plan, and choose us as adoptive parents, we will make sure that your child knows your story and just how much you love them.
