Hello! We are Alice and McLean. We appreciate your willingness to consider our family for your child. We have been hoping, dreaming, and planning to adopt for many years, and we are eagerly looking forward to the day we can bring a child home and build our family. Adoption is a beautiful way to create a family and the ideal path for us. If you choose us, we will do everything we can to respect and honor the life you envision for your child. Please read on to learn more about us and what we see in our future.

Thank you for considering us as potential parents for your child. We understand that this is a challenging and difficult time for you. Deciding on whether adoption is right for you and your child, is a big decision. We want you to know that although we are excited about welcoming a child into our lives, we understand that this is likely one of the most difficult and confusing times of your life. We see you, we're praying for you and would like to be there for you to be a listening ear if you are ok with that.

Letter to Mother;We may not know your exact story, but we know that you're trying to do something loving and brave--and that matters deeply.

We're not here to write the perfect letter or tell you we have all the answers. We're just two people who have built a life full of love, laughter, and family--and who are ready, with open hearts, to welcome a child into it.

You'll learn more about us in the pages that follow--our home, our traditions, our family --but we hope what stands out most is this: if you choose us, your child will grow up in a home where they are celebrated, protected, and deeply loved every single day.

We're so grateful that you're taking the time to read this. However your journey unfolds, we're sending you strength, love, and peace with every step.

Hi there,

As we sit down to make this profile for you, it's hard to believe that we could be writing a letter to someone who could become one of the most important people in our lives. It's a bit strange and very emotional. How could we possibly know what to say?

We're sure that you're also full of feelings that are hard to put into words. And lots of questions. Maybe this profile will help you find some answers.

We hope this is the start of a special relationship with you -- on your terms -- if and when you feel ready.

For us, it would mean the beginning of a new family. A dream come true. But we know that your feelings are more complicated than we could ever imagine.

You have big decisions to make for you and your baby. Trust in yourself. Only you know what's best.

No matter what, we wish you all the love and support in the world.

Sincerely,

JACKIE & GARRET

The Begining

In 2016, on Ally's birthday, we met. She was 18, and Cole was 20. From the moment we crossed paths, we knew it was something special--love at first sight. We couldn't imagine being apart, and soon, we were introducing each other to our families. Everything just fell into place.

A year later, Ally moved into Cole's cozy downtown apartment, and we started building our life together. After a while, we decided to plant our roots and bought a home in South City, close to our jobs.

In 2019, after three amazing years together, Cole proposed, and Ally became his forever. Our love story was just beginning, and we couldn't wait to see where it would take us.

Hello there!

Thank you so much for taking the time to learn about us and for considering us as you make the difficult decision of who will parent your child. We hope that through this book, you will be able to see the love we have for each other, our families and friends, and our future child. We have dreamed of starting our family for many years and are so excited to share our story with you.

We want you to know how much respect and love we feel for you already. We cannot imagine the emotions you must be feeling, and we are praying for you while you come to your decision. Regardless of the path you choose, we wish you the very best and hope you are able to find peace and comfort in your decision.

We are so grateful that you might consider us to adopt your child.

Dear Expectant Parent,

There are no words that can fully capture the depth of gratitude and admiration we feel for you. The love, courage, and strength it takes to make the decision you are making is something we will always hold in our hearts with reverence.

We want you to know that we see your bravery, strength, and selflessness, and we will never forget the gift you are giving: not just to us, but to this child who will forever carry a part of you. You will always be honored in our home, spoken of with love & respect, and remembered as an extraordinary woman whose strength made our family possible.

With a lifetime of love for this child,

Jackie and Zach

Dear Expectant Parent,

First of all, we would like to thank you for taking the time to look at our book, and get to know us. We can only imagine the strength and love it takes to consider adoption for your child, and we hope you know who deeply we respect and admire your courage.

We have dreamed of becoming parents, not just to raise a child, but to offer them a home filled with love, laughter, support, and stability. Our journey to this point has been filled with hope, reflection, and a deep desire to build a family through adoption.

If we have the privilege of raising your child, we promise to surround them with unconditional love, strong values, and every opportunity to grow into whomever they're meant to be.

No matter the path you choose for your child, we send so much love, strength, and peace as you navigate this journey.

For this child, we have PRAYED. 1 Samuel 1:27
