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! We're Tyler & Lauren! We have been preparing a home in joyful hope to grow our family. We'd love for you and your child to be a part of our journey, and we would be honored to be a part of yours. Know that you and your child already have our prayers no matter your choice. Please enjoy getting to know us through our profile!

We are deeply grateful for your consideration in this process. Your strength and courage in doing so showcase the values encapsulated within the human spirit. It takes an extraordinary person to start this journey and your selflessness will forever be etched into our hearts, from the bottom of which we thank you.

A LETTER OF GRATITUDE

We can't begin to fully understand the emotions you must be feeling in this moment. The decision you are making reflects immense courage, strength, and selflessness, and we hope that you find peace throughout this journey.

We appreciate and thank you for taking the time to learn about us. By exploring our profile, you've given us the incredible opportunity to share our lives with you. You will always be this child's mother, but we hope this profile gives you a glimpse into why we believe we would make great fathers.

Our life is filled with love, adventure, and anticipation for the day we can welcome a baby into our family. We believe there's a child out there meant to join our lives, and each day, we hope that their mother will recognize the connection we share. If that's you, we are deeply grateful for the chance to find out.

We deeply respect your decision and hope your child inherits their mother's strength, courage, and resolve.

Hello! It is so nice to meet you. If you are reading this profile, you are considering placing a child for adoption. We don't know what circumstances brought you to this decision, but we know that this choice is not an easy one. We have so much respect for you and hope that you have someone in your life to support you in making the decision that is right for you.

We are hoping to grow our family through adoption because, quite simply, we want to be parents. We had always discussed adoption as a possibility. After trying to get pregnant for many years, we realized that biological children might not be part of our journey. We decided it was time to put ourselves out there and reach out to birth families just like you. We know that you have many profiles that you are looking at and we appreciate you taking the time to get to know us. In this profile, we hope that you will get a glimpse of who we are and how we live. We are supportive of whatever path you choose. If you choose us, we promise to offer a loving home for your child. We have so much love to give.

We're Jack and Emily.

We started dating in high school and have been together for over seventeen years. We moved in together after graduating from college in 2013. Since then, we've lived together in five houses in four cities and three different states. We moved once for work, once for grad school, once for a bigger yard, and once just for fun.

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

"You have what the world needs!"

This open statement resonates with us when it comes to anyone who may be reading our profile book, especially any expectant parents. You have what the world needs because even in difficult times, your courage is reflected by your willingness to explore options to make the best decision for you and those around you. Your courage shows you have a caring heart that desires to make the right decision for you and your loved ones, a quality many have forgotten in today's world.

Whether you choose to raise a child or move forward with an adoption plan, know that we are cheering for you, hoping that any fears or pains you are experiencing in your life may be healed. We both feel extremely honored and blessed to have you consider us as prospective parents.
