Dear Birthmother,
Dear Expectant Mother,
We want to take a moment to tell you how unbelievably courageous and strong we know that you are. Whatever circumstances have led you to consider placing your precious baby for adoption, please know that it does not change how much you are (and will be) loved by your baby, the adoptive family you choose, and God. The steps you are taking to ensure that your baby can grow up happy, healthy, safe, and loved are no small feat, and we admire you for it.
Thank you for considering us as potential parents for your sweet baby. We are so hopeful and honored to be on this path. If you decide to choose us, your baby will have the guidance and support to become the best version of themselves, to experience all the good this world has to offer, and to know unconditional love. We love the life we have created together, and your baby will exponentially add to the warmth and joy already in our home. Our desire is to be open with your baby about their adoption story, the amazing sacrifice you made for them, and how much love went into making this decision.
Whatever choice you make, whether to choose us or not, we want you to know that we value and respect you. We will be praying for you and your baby, and that you are filled with peace and comfort in the journey forward.
With love, Rachel & Aaron
Our Home
We adore living in the Pacific Northwest and are grateful to be here. Within a few miles of our house, we have access to any stores we need, and we live within 25 miles of a large metropolitan city. We can explore the beach, lakes/waterfalls, hiking, camping, and more just a short drive from home.
Our home is small and cozy, located in a quiet, walkable neighborhood. We have an indoor fireplace and a private backyard with a deck, firepit, and room for garden beds. When visiting our home, friends are greeted by our three fur babies: George (dog), Cat, and Tulip (cats). They're curious, snuggly, and patient with children. Our visitors leave blessed with some pet glitter (hair) to remember the fur-kids by.
Our Extended Family
Rachel has a small but tight-knit family. Her dad, aunt, uncle, and grandma are goofy, loud, and always love to share a meal together when possible. Rachel's mom is fiercely loving, creative, and resourceful. She has one older brother and a nine-year-old niece she enjoys spending time with when visiting. There is never a dull moment when her family is together. With no immediate cousins, the kids in the family are especially cherished and doted on.
Aaron comes from a large extended family. His mom has seven brothers and sisters, and many cousins with kids of their own, making family gatherings lively and full of energy. His immediate family—mom, dad, sister, and brother-in-law—love spending time together, simply enjoying each other's company. One of Aaron's favorite things to do is to work on projects with his dad—an activity they truly cherish. He has a close-knit bond with his relatives and they enjoy helping each other out. Family traditions are important to Aaron, and they make an effort to stay connected, creating memories that they'll treasure for years to come.
