Dear Birthmother,
Dear Expectant Mother,
First and foremost, we want you to know how loved, valued, and important you are to us. We know this choice could not have been easy for you. Know that we think the world of how selfless and brave you are, and we value the gift and quality of life you are giving to your baby. You and your baby are already so loved and adored by our family.
Know that your baby will get to grow up surrounded by so many loved ones who already can't wait to meet him or her. We understand that this is a confusing and difficult time for you while you try to figure out what is best for you and your precious baby. We hope you feel loved and supported no matter where you are in this journey.
We promise that we want to give your baby a home where he or she will feel safe, happy, cherished, and loved unconditionally. Our greatest wish is to give your baby a life with every opportunity possible. We will always make sure your child knows how much you love them and how selfless and brave you were to make the decision to place them for adoption. We cannot wait to welcome a child into our home, and we are excited for the journey ahead.
With love and admiration,
Erika & Troy
Our Home
We live in a very small town and community. We live in a very quiet neighborhood surrounded by many young families with young children! Our home is a one-story ranch-style home with a finished basement and back deck in our backyard! Our backyard is wide open with tons of space for children to run and play! The woodland in the way back of our yard is a sight to see! We get many deer, squirrels, and unique birds that are so fun to watch! We have a golden retriever named Tovi! She is 3 years old! We also have 3 cats! Their names are Chloe, Clyde, and Journey! We love how close all of our neighbors are! They are like our extended family!
Our Extended Family
