Dear Expectant Parent,

Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile and considering me to adopt your baby. I can only imagine all of the emotions you must have as you're making this significant decision. So, I want to make sure you have an accurate picture of me.

On my profile, you'll meet my friends and family who are excited to support me on this journey. You'll also see where I live, what I like to do, and places I have been. What's most important is that you know that what you see on the following pages is what you get. I am a loving, loyal, authentic, trustworthy, happy, and a little quirky person excited and ready to become a mom. Thank you for considering me - and I hope the following pages let you really get to know me.

Hello,

During this difficult time, we want to extend our warmest embrace and support as you navigate through this challenging decision. Your strength and courage are truly admirable, and though we have yet to meet, please know we are sending you support from afar.

We're thrilled at the opportunity to share a glimpse into our lives with you. Family and friends hold a special place in our hearts, and nurturing those connections is our greatest joy. You'll often find us outdoors, skiing, playing tennis, or swimming in our pool. We enjoy DIY projects on our home, and we cherish moments together like seeing live music. We adore cuddling up with our beloved dog, Fancy. More than anything, we hope you'll see through these pages the deep love and mutual respect that are the bedrock of our relationship.

We hope to have the chance to learn more about you and your desires for your child so we can work together to create a wonderful life for them filled with never-ending love, opportunity, and support. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking the time to get to know us.

With Love, Graham Charles

Hello! We are Braden, Jordan, and Charlie (our dog) and we are excited to share love and belongingness with a new member of our family. We both work in education and live in an amazing, supportive, and diverse community that shares our values. A few things to know about us:

Family: We love and are embraced by our families. As a central part of our lives, they are excited to welcome a new member(s).

Education: We are both educators and believe in making sure all children are provided opportunities for the best education.

Fun/Celebrations/Friends: Our community is everything and the time we spend with others is a continual celebration of our differences and friendships that make our day-to-day lives even better.

We know you are potentially facing difficult decisions right now as you consider the possibility of adoption. We feel lucky you've read this far and hope you know how appreciative we are.

Dear Expectant Parent,

Hello there. Our names are Jessilyn and Damon Wilson. Thank you for taking a few moments to review our profile and get to know a little bit about us. We cannot begin to know what you are going through or what brought you here but we are sending all the positive vibes and belief that you will make the best decision for you. We wish you the best in your journey!

Hi there! We are Kylie and Zachary. It has been a lifelong dream of ours to start a family, and we are so fortunate to have selfless mamas like you who can help make that dream come true. We are a military family who has explored all over the world with our two cats, Miso and Baker. This is just a glimpse into our lives; we hope to share more with you!

Hello!

We want to first thank you for taking the time to get to know us. While we do not know the exact circumstance that brought you to Gladney, we are glad you are here. We understand there are many difficult choices ahead on your journey. Our hope for you through this process is to find peace, hope and understanding, whether you decided to parent or create an adoption plan.

As we start this adoption journey, we are also filled with so many different emotions. We are excited for this new chapter in our lives and the possibility of becoming parents, but we would be lying if we didn't say there is still a little anxiety in the unknown. What we do know is that we are ready to bring a child into our home. Should you choose us as adoptive parents, know that our hearts and our home are open to you and your family. No matter where this journey may take you, know that our thoughts and prayers are with you.

With love, Mary and Andrew

Hello,

Thank you so much for taking the time to look through our profile and learn a bit about us! We have a lot of love to give and are beyond grateful to think that you might be considering us. We have been praying for you and this child for a long time. And while we don't know you yet, we are already amazed by your selflessness, compassion, and courage!

Family means so much to us, and we want you to know that we wish the very best for you and your baby whatever you decide. We hope that we can eventually meet you, give you a big hug, and tell you in person how much you mean to us!

We have always wanted to be parents and if you choose us to adopt your child, we promise we will love that child with all our heart and support them in any way they need. They will always know their story and feel the love that their birth family has for them.

With Love,

Melissa, Bobby, and Rufus
