Only you know what is the right decision for you and your child, and no matter what, we support you! We are so excited to be parents again. We have a blended family that we could not have imagined when we started our own journey many years ago. We have learned that each of our children are unique and always changing at any age and at any given moment. As a result, we’ve learned that we must love our children uniquely and differently--and always equally. We genuinely love to see our children grow up knowing they are loved and knowing they have a solid foundation. We have no idea what specific love our next child will need, but we are excited and committed to loving our next child no matter what that means. We will give our best effort each day to our next child in a specific way that results in their complete confidence of being loved by us. Thank you for taking the time to get to know a little more about us! Inside this profile we hope you are able to get a peak into our lives and our hearts. Please know you are in our thoughts and prayers!. No matter what, we are amazed by your strength and love for your child. We are praying for you!

Joe and Theresa
Hello, We are Joe and Theresa and we are so grateful that you are reading our profile and considering us as adoptive parents. As you are looking for a loving family and home for your child, we are grateful that you have included our family in your consideration. We respect your bravery for making a plan for adoption. We pray for your peace and comfort and that you experience God’s overwhelming love for you. We have been married for four years and like many couples, we desired to grow our family right away. We both feel a strong call on our lives to be parents and to have a positive impact on a child’s life. We see that God has a plan for us through adoption. Our story is something like a storybook. We met as neighbors over the backyard fence. Our houses were behind each other’s and our backyards connected. Our dates included climbing the fence to have backyard dinners together ending with a goodnight kiss at the fence. It was clear to us quickly that we were meant to be together. We got married in our backyard right where it all began. A few months later we had the joy of becoming pregnant but then the heartbreak of the miscarriage of our twins. After two more pregnancy losses, we sought God for His clarity and guidance on how He wanted us to grow our family. We truly believe that He has led us by His love to adopt and to love a child just as he or she is our own. After completing the initial process to become potential adoptive parents, we learned that we were going to have a child of our own. We were able to have a full term pregnancy and bring our son Joe Jr. into the world. We love him dearly and he brings us so much joy. He is a very happy, smart and playful one year old. We still have a heart to continue to grow our family through adoption. We are excited to have the opportunity to add another child to our home and share our lives, love and joy with the child God places into our family.

Thomas and Lilly
Thank you for taking the time to look through our book. We look forward to meeting you and getting to know you. God has a plan for each one of us. We've wanted to have children since before we knew each other but we didn't know how God would bring it about. Over the last few years, we've been drawn more and more to adoption and now trust that that is God's plan for us. God has a plan for you too. He has led you to consider making an adoption plan for your child. We know you have a difficult decision before you but trust that God will help you find the right couple to love and nurture your child. We've taken great comfort in the words of Philippians chapter 4, versus 6-7 and hope you will too. "Have no anxiety at all, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, make your requests known to God. Then the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus." We'll keep you in our prayers. Sincerely, Thomas and Lilly

Brad and Amy
Hello! Thank you for taking the time to go through our profile. We are excited to share ourselves with you! We hope you see something you can relate to or connect with as you learn about us. Our hearts need something... We want to hold a little hand while we excitedly wait in line to meet Mickey Mouse. We want to see the childish excitement on Christmas morning as wrapping paper is ripped off to reveal thoughtfully chosen gifts. We want to teach our little one to ride a bike or fly a kite at the park. We have journeyed down the sad road called infertility. However, God has filled our hearts with so much love, and we still have a strong desire to become parents. If something about us in our profile touches your heart, we would be honored if you selected us. We understand that you are making life-changing decisions that are not easy. Whatever decision you make, we pray that you will be filled with peace. With love from our hearts to yours, Brad and Amy

Mike and Nina
Hello, we are Mike and Nina. We have an (almost) 3-year-old son, Mikey, and 2 cats, Isaac and Emmy. Since early on in our dating relationship, we knew that we were looking to start a family. We might have started talking about how many kids we wanted before we even discussed when we would get married. We have been together for 12 years. God brought us together at the right time in our lives and has always graced us with blessings when we were ready. Despite always wanting to start a family, we had to wait until Nina was done with school and start her career before trying to conceive. Little did we know that we would have to wait an additional year, due to us struggling to conceive. This became one of the hardest years of our lives. We knew we wanted a family. We knew were ready for it. What we didn’t know is that God had a plan for us and we had to patiently wait for our child. Once we finally conceived, we were overjoyed. It was one of the happiest moments of our lives being superseded only by the first time we saw little Mikey. We are absolutely elated at the idea of seeing our next child for the first time. Our hearts are open to a new child and (if you choose and are comfortable) to an extended family. As much as we try to be patient, we are eager to welcome another child into our family. We know our calling is to be parents. We know that God has put us on this path to have another child. Our arms, our home and our hearts are open and waiting for God to bring that newest little bundle to us.

We hope you can appreciate through our story our love for each other and our family and how devoted we are to being parents.

We know you want the very best for your child and if you choose us, we promise to love your child with every piece of our heart and to always do what is best for him or her. We are excited to meet you and get to know you, if that's what you desire.

Yours is the most selfless decision a mother can make, and we are in awe of your love and strength. We want to adopt because we feel an overflow of love, affection, and parental care.

Thank you for looking through our profile! Our family's focus is to Seek Jesus first and always. Actively and intentionally show love to others, especially those who do not usually feel unseen. Posses a childlike curiosity that can only be satisfied through endless exploration and an open mind and willingness to learn. Our goal is to store up experiences the way most people store up possessions all while simplifying and making space to create art. Our goal is to do these things daily with a contagious, spirit of joy, gratefulness, and positivity.

We're Matt and Tracy. We've been married for four years now and together for more than eight.

Dear Expectant Parent, Thank you for taking the time to get to know our story and learn about the life we have built together. We want you to know how much we admire your compassion for your baby and for your courage to consider doing the most selfless, brave act a parent will face. We cannot begin to imagine what you must be feeling, thinking and experiencing during this time. Please know that we would love the opportunity to stand beside you on this journey and hope you feel supported and loved throughout. When it came time to start our journey to parenthood, we were faced with many obstacles and years of trying. We are so incredibly blessed with our son who is now 4 years old, but it took several years to get him here. Everything happens for a reason and we lean on God every day. He has led us to adoption for our second child. We know that, if given the chance, our promise to you is to love your baby with all of our hearts and to provide a loving, nurturing life. We believe every person in this world is a miracle and we do not take anything or anyone for granted. Our son will be the best big brother any child could ask for. He is very compassionate, funny, and caring. He loves with his whole heart. Our lives are centered on our family and raising our son. Everything we do is for our family and expanding our family. We adore being parents and will love your baby unconditionally. Know that we are praying for you and your precious baby during your pregnancy, that God will fill you with peace in whatever decision you make. Thank you for considering us as an adoptive family for your baby.
