Hi there,

We are so thankful that you are taking the time to look at our profile. We can not begin to imagine the process that you are going through, but we are thankful for your willingness to consider us. We want to start our family more than anything and are just thankful for the opportunity to share our story and life with you.

With Love,

Ashley & Ryan

Hello! We are incredibly grateful that you are here to learn a little about us. We cannot imagine the circumstances that have brought you to this moment and how difficult it must be. We know from our own experiences that life doesn't always go as planned, but God always gives us the strength and courage we need in each season of our lives. We believe you are brave and loving. We admire you and care for you and your baby already! We pray that you find strength and clarity in whatever decision you make.

We invite you to learn about our bilingual and multicultural family. As you look through our profile, we hope that you can feel our love and get a glimpse into our lives. As a couple, we live each day full of joy, adventure, and commitment. We are so excited to welcome a little one into our family to love and care for! If you choose to make us part of your story, we promise to raise your child in a happy, supportive and love-filled home. Our family and friends are just as ready as we are with open hearts for you and your baby. We truly appreciate you taking the time to consider us.

DEAR EXPECTANT PARENT--

Thank you for taking the time to look through this Profile. We know there is so much change happening in your life right now, and that can come with a number of emotions and challenges. One of the reasons we chose Gladney was because we knew they would meet you in these emotions and challenges and provide great support. We hope you've felt cared for and encouraged through each step, and that you will continue to feel that way throughout this process as you make the decision that's best for you.

We're Robert Tate & Sarah (Robert Tate is his first name-it's complicated, we know). We've been friends for 12 years and married for over 3. Even before we were together, we both always hoped that adoption could be part of our story and the way we start our family. That led us here to Gladney.

In this profile, you'll find more details about our life, hobbies, and commitments through this process.

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!

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

Hey Hey!

Thank you for taking the time to take a look at our profile and for considering us as you make what we are sure is potentially one of the most difficult decisions you've have to make. As we sat together we found it so difficult to put into words what to say as this experience for you is without a doubt a totally different experience than it is for us. This for you is potentially a decision of true hardship and conflicting emotions that takes immense strength and heart, while for us the experience is one we've dreamed of, full of joy and hope as we work to build our family together.

That said, this is an experience that can bring us all together. Whatever decision it is you make, we know you'll make the right decision for you and for your baby. We can promise we will give our all to make sure your baby has a wonderful life with our family and experiences love and support in all stages of life. From the bottom of our hearts thank you for your consideration of us.

Dear Parent,

Where do we start? Well, first, thank you for taking the time to read this letter.

Second, you should know we are incredibly ordinary people. We pay our taxes, watch movies, floss our teeth (occasionally) and grocery shop together. We listen to music. Get lost in thought. Do chores. We open doors for others, say "Please" and "Thank you", and enjoy a good laugh, especially when they are hard to come by.

Like we said, we're ordinary.

And like most people, we've experienced hardships. Ours of late have centered around our journey to parenthood. Which is why we are writing what you are now reading. And while our paths through life have differed, with yours undoubtedly filled with its own twists and turns, they've led us all to here and now. This moment where we're asking you to consider partnering with us in parenthood.

If you are open to it, we'd love for you to continue reading so you may get to know us better. We hope you'll find us to be the kind, good people our parents raised us to be. But more importantly, we hope you come away understanding that while we may be ordinary people, we're capable of and surrounded by extraordinary love. Love that your child will experience everyday.

Sincerely, Katie & Howard

To you, the expectant mother,

We know that right now, life is very difficult, and that you are making a huge decision. The choice is completely yours, and we believe that you will choose what's best for you. If you choose adoption and choose us as parents, we will welcome your child into our family and love them with all our hearts.

Even though we do not know you, we admire and respect you. Pregnancy takes strength, and making difficult decisions produces bravery. So in this moment, you are both brave and strong.

And to anyone in support of you,

This remarkable woman deserves your love, attention, and support, no matter her choice. And if you're reading this, it means that you're already by her side. Thank you.

Wishing you only the best,

Atish and Sophia
