We are grateful to be able to introduce our family to you. We are Michael and Laura, and we have two daughters. Our oldest is Samara, and our youngest is Peyton. We don't know the circumstances surrounding this difficult decision that you find yourself making, but we admire your love for your baby. If we get the opportunity to know you and your story, we know there are so many beautiful and incredible things about who you are. But without having met you yet, we know you are brave, full of love, and so courageous. You are seen. You are loved. Our deepest hope and prayer for you is that no matter what choice you make you feel supported, loved, and taken care of. We've tried our best for this book to give you an honest and authentic view of who we are and what our lives are like. We have huge families on both sides who are ready and excited to welcome another precious little one into the family. We want to assure you that we are happy with whatever amount of openness and relationship you'd like to have. We want to respect your needs, desires, and boundaries. We want you to always feel seen, important, and honored. Thank you for considering our family. With love, Michael & Laura

Dear Expectant Parent,

You are amazing. Remember to be kind and gracious to yourself.

Today, we are so privileged to have the opportunity to write to you. Our wish is for you to breathe it all in. Through your baby's moves, you will feel your strength, your patience, your vulnerabilities and your unwavering determination to give the best to your child. Your selflessness is so cherished. We are humbled beyond measure to have you consider us as parents. We want you to know we will raise our child in a God-anchored, loving family with so much joy.

Dear Birthparent, We want to express our heartfelt gratitude for taking the time to learn about us. We acknowledge the courage and strength it takes to consider adoption for your child. Whether you are certain about adoption or still exploring your options, we understand that this journey you're on is incredibly challenging.

If you do decide to create an adoption plan and select us as the adoptive parents, your child will not only be welcomed into our family but also embraced as an extension of yours. Your child will grow up knowing their adoption story, and they will be cherished and celebrated for their unique journey. Our hope is to create a warm and inclusive environment where your child feels a sense of belonging and connection, not only to us but also to you, their roots, and their heritage.

Most importantly, we want you to understand that we'll stand as their unwavering cheerleaders in life, wholeheartedly supporting them and ensuring they have every opportunity to pursue their dreams and passions. We pray that you find solace in whichever path you choose, reassured by the knowledge that your child will be surrounded by love, regardless of the decision made.

Hello! We are hopeful adoptive parents, and we are so happy to have the opportunity to share a little bit about ourselves with you. We have made this online profile with a few goals in mind. We want you to have a sense of who we are as people, what motivates us, and what is important to us. We want you to know what our community is like, and what type of place our adopted child would grow up in. We want you to learn about our families, and what types of relationships and traditions hold us together.

Most of all, we want you to know why we want to adopt, and how we hope to be supportive, steadfast, nurturing, and loving parents. We know that you are making a tremendously difficult decision, and we hope that our book will help in your choice.

With love,

Becca and Ryan
