Nancy & Loretta

Dear Birth Mother, 

Words cannot express how thankful we are for you. We pray that you find peace in selecting a family to love and provide opportunities for your child. We admire your courage, and we pray for you as you make this difficult decision. We cannot imagine the emotions you must be experiencing, and hope that you feel God’s presence and love throughout the remainder of your pregnancy and beyond. 

As we grow our family through adoption, we want you to know just how much we cherish this gift, and what a blessing this has been for us. Your sacrifice is a direct reflection of the love you have for your child, a love that words can never be described. The challenges that we have faced after having our eldest daughter, trying to expand our family have been difficult and emotional, but we now know that adoption has been God’s plan all along. This became so clear to us after we adopted our son, Frison in 2013. 

We will be a true family in every aspect whether it is financially, emotionally, or where we live. We know that what makes a parent is not always biological. But it is nurturing. It is day to day care, the unconditional love, and devotion and our commitment. We know that an open adoption plan may be important to you and we want to have a plan for you to connect by calling on holidays and birthdays if you so desire. 

We live in the suburbs and we are surrounded with a very good school, shopping centers, recreational centers and activities, and churches. We are both devout Christians. Our faith is the center of our home, our marriage, and our family. We are thankful to be part of an incredible, loving church and community where we have trusted childcare centers, and after school care and close family that will care and love this child as we do. We strive daily to live respectable lives with constant spiritual growth based on our morals and values. 

We are committed to providing the best education both at home and in school. We will encourage their strengths and support their weaknesses. We will inspire confidence and creativity so that they grow up believing in the ability to reach their fullest potential. We will do our very best to set a good example and teach important virtues such as kindness, compassion, and humanity. 

As you consider this difficult decision, we hope to offer you some peace in the form of a promise. If your child is placed with us, we promise to love unconditionally while providing consistent stability and guidance. They will grow up knowing how special, chosen, and longed for they are. We are thinking of you and cannot express enough gratitude for your consideration.

We sincerely thank you for taking the time to read this letter and learn about us and our family. We appreciate your consideration as you’re weighing out the many potential options. Regardless of your choice, we thank you for your bravery. We admire your strength and respect your sacrifice. If you’d like to learn more about us, we would love to speak with you. We are ready and waiting and would love nothing more than to connect with you on this journey. May God bless you and your child.

Miranda is very active in her church and has a strong connection with her brother. Frison is our adopted son, he is 11 and is loving, kind, funny, smart and extremely active.

We cannot express our gratitude in your consideration as you make this difficult decision. We fully understand the gravity of what goes into what lies before you. We want you to know that we are humbled and want to reassure you that your child will be loved, cared, nurtured just as our very own.  

Raising a child of another race

As we are a diverse family ourselves, we do what we can to experience all cultures and backgrounds. We believe in loving all, learning all we can and being as inclusive to making new family traditions.

What led us to adoption

We knew we always wanted to grow our family. We have been blessed with wonderful families of our own that we felt God led us down this path. We were not able to conceive on our own and after many failed attempts of IVF we were blessed to have a family member conceive and carry our son for us. It was such a blessing.
