Letters

Dear Expectant Mom,

We also believe it is important for a child to understand their story and know how deeply they were loved from the very beginning.

Thank you for taking the time to look through our profile and learn about our family. We know this may be one of the most emotional and difficult decisions you will ever face, and we want you to know how much respect we have for you.

While we cannot fully understand what this journey has been like for you, we recognize the incredible care and love that goes into considering an adoption plan for your child.

We also believe it is important for a child to understand their story and know how deeply they were loved from the very beginning. Your role in that story will always be treated with honesty, compassion, and respect.

We are truly grateful for the opportunity to share our hearts and a glimpse into our lives with you.

WHY ADOPT

We have so much love to give and look forward to providing a home where a child feels safe and encouraged to become the person they are meant to be.

Becoming parents has been a deep desire for both of us. Adoption has always been the path we envisioned for growing our family, and we feel incredibly grateful for the opportunity to pursue it. We have built a life filled with love, stability, laughter, and support, and we are excited to share that with a child. We have so much love to give and look forward to providing a home where a child feels safe and encouraged to become the person they are meant to be.

OUR STORY

From the very beginning, we connected through our ability to have fun together and our love for helping others.

We met in 2014 while volunteering on a ski trip in Colorado through an organization we both work with that supports children with cancer. From the very beginning, we connected through our ability to have fun together and our love for helping others. We began dating shortly after that trip and quickly realized we had found something special in one another.

In 2015, we were married and started building the life we had always hoped for. In 2018, we moved to Seattle and lived there for a few years. We love that area and developed a great community, but in 2023 we decided to move back home to Texas to be closer to our families and have a child of our own.

Over the years, we have grown even closer through life’s adventures, challenges, and everyday moments. Adam works in the medical field, and Emily works in a nonprofit. We enjoy spending time with family and friends, traveling, relaxing at home, and making memories together.

MACY

Macy brings so much joy and personality into our home.

A very important part of our family is our 10-year-old chihuahua, Macy. She is a spunky, fun-loving girl who absolutely loves people and cuddling with us. Macy brings so much joy and personality into our home. Our nieces especially love when we bring her around because they enjoy carrying, cuddling, and playing with her.

ABOUT ADAM - FROM EMILY

He is fiercely loyal and deeply values relationships.

Adam is a strong provider and incredibly hard-working. He always goes above and beyond to make sure the people in his life are cared for and supported. He is fiercely loyal and deeply values relationships. His closest friendships extend back many years because once he connects with someone, he is intentional about investing in that relationship and making time for the people he cares about.

I also love Adam’s humor and silliness. He brings joy and laughter into our home every single day. I can usually expect to hear him singing a random song loudly from another room or dancing around the house when music comes on. He has a way of making ordinary moments fun and memorable.

My favorite thing about Adam is the way he constantly makes me and the people around him feel loved. He is deliberate with his words and actions. I know without a doubt that he will bring much love, encouragement, and laughter into the life of a child.

ABOUT EMILY - FROM ADAM

Emily also brings so much laughter and fun into our home.

Emily is the most loving person I have ever met; she has such a genuine empathy and compassion for other people. I admire how intentional she is in her relationships. She remembers the small things that matter to people, checks in on friends and family often, and always makes time for the people she loves. Whether it is planning a thoughtful gift, making someone a meal, or simply being there to listen, she consistently shows others how much they mean to her.

Emily also brings so much laughter and fun into our home. She has a playful sense of humor. Whether we are joking around in the kitchen, laughing during a car ride, or spending time with family, she brings joy wherever she goes.

She is also an amazing cook — I honestly have never had a bad meal that she has made. She loves bringing people together around the table, and some of my favorite memories are simply being at home enjoying a meal together.

OUR HOPE

We are open to an open adoption and believe that maintaining a connection with a child’s birth family can be very meaningful and beneficial.

We hope to raise a child in a home where they feel deeply loved, supported, and encouraged to become the best version of themselves.

We look forward to being actively involved in our child’s life by attending school events, performances, games, and other important milestones. We also want to create a home where our child feels comfortable talking with us about their friendships, challenges, and accomplishments.

We are open to an open adoption and believe that maintaining a connection with a child’s birth family can be very meaningful and beneficial. Any level of openness would always be guided by what is in the child’s best interest and supports their emotional well-being.

THANK YOU

Thank you for taking the time to get to know us.

We can only imagine the love, strength, and courage it takes to consider adoption, and we are grateful for the opportunity to share our story with you.

We hope to provide a child with a life filled with love, support, laughter, and opportunity. We wish you peace and clarity as you make this important decision.

With love and gratitude,
Adam & Emily
