Tony and Becky
Hello. We are Tony, Becky, and Drew. Thank you for taking the time to read this and get to know us a little better. We wish you the best of luck as you look for a family for your child. We have known each other since 2008 and have been married since 2011. Drew is our biological son born in 2012. Since then, we have struggled with having more children. There were multiple miscarriages and unsuccessful fertility treatments. Throughout this time we have been considering adoption, as we always knew we wanted to have more than one child.

Joshua and Quincey
Hi friend, This is Josh and Quincey from Fredericksburg, Virginia. We are a fun-loving, compassionate, warm, and adventurous couple, with a large support network of family and friends. We have been married for two years, and met at a charity-training event in 2012. Since then, we nourish our relationship’s foundation of compassion through various community boards and church. We love traveling, reading, sports-especially soccer, and most importantly, spending time with our families. While we love a good adventure and have had many through our travels, this adventure on our adoption journey fills our hearts! We knew when we got married, we wanted to grow our family. It didn’t take long for us to see through some prayer and reflection that adoption would be our path. We are an ‘open-book’ and can’t wait for you to read our story and meet all the characters in our lives! By using the following ingredients: unconditional love, support, and a healthy Christian environment, we plan on allowing our future child to have every resource necessary to accomplish their hopes and dreams, with us always being on the sidelines cheering them along. Thank you for considering adoption and taking the time to learn about us.

Christopher and Rachel
Dear Birth Parent, Greetings! You didn't know it, but we have been praying for you! We do not know anything about you, but we know that something is not quite right. In a perfect world, you would not have to be reading this, and we would not have to be writing it. *Sigh* But, for the three of us, we believe that "where the ideal is lacking, grace abounds". Our faith in God has helped us with many difficulties, and is what we rely on. We cannot offer your child a perfect life, free from hardship (although I wish we could!). However, we can promise you that with God's help, we will teach your child how to fall and get back up again, how to laugh until you cry, how to make the best of what you have been given, and finally how to shine so that the burdens of others become a little lighter - because we are all fighting difficult battles. The three of us are outdoor adventurers and travelers. However, we also REALLY love to just goof around, and we hope to show you that as you enjoy this glimpse into our world! Much love, Chris, Rachel, and James!

We know you must be overwhelmed right now, so many decisions and so many emotions. There's nothing we could say to make this easier, but we want you to know we respect you and your path- whatever that may be. If you choose this path of adoption with us, we can offer you whatever you need to make this choice easier. We are accepting of an open adoption and whatever that means to you. We can offer updates, brief encounters, outings, and adventures together! After years of miscarriages and IVF treatments, we were blessed with a beautiful boy, born at 23 weeks, We didn't know if he would be able to survive at all, but with the help of a breathing tube he did and went on to fight for 7 months. In his short life he showed more courage and strength than anyone we know. He showed us our own strength and commitment and taught us the true meaning of unconditional and unwavering love. Our hope is that we can share these lessons with your beautiful baby.

Dear Friend, Thank you so much for taking the time to look at our profile. We would love to grow our family through adoption. We've always known we've wanted to adopt. Adoption has been a constant part of our lives through childhood friends being adopted and walking through the process with several close friends and family members. Robert and I have been married for 11 years and have had the privilege of traveling all over the world. Robert is an active duty Marine and I am a graphic designer and photographer. We have two sons, Jack and Bennett. We love to travel and have adventures. We are an active family and love to be outside, have fun and laugh...A LOT! Our home is a house of joy. There's lots of play time and there's always a little superhero running around protecting us. We want you to know how much love and respect we have for you already. We are praying for you and your journey through this process. We hope our profile will show you the love our family has, the love we give each other and the love we hope to give to our future child and you. Much Love, Robert, Jana, Jack & Bennett

Hi! I'm Jessica. I am so humbled and excited that you decided to look at my page. I can't even imagine how difficult it is to be considering an adoption plan for your little one. I know it takes a tremendous amount and strength and courage to make the decisions your making, but I want to thank you for choosing the gift of life. I want you to know that I'm praying for you and your little one during this time and asking God to lead you to the best decisions for the both of you. I am so looking forward to welcoming a bundle of joy into my home to love and care for. I can promise a home filled with love, laughter and happiness. I promise to cherish your little one as my own. I will tell your child their story, and make sure they know you hold a special place in our family, no matter the amount of openness you are comfortable with. Through years of prayer God has called me to adoption. With medical reasons for pregnancy not being an option, my longing to be a mom has only grown year after year. I can't wait for the day when I get to be a mom to and raise a kiddo in a warm, Christian home where they will be forever cherished and loved unconditionally.

After seeing the joyous adoption path of others in our church and praying over the decision we are thrilled to be on our own unique journey.

Brian and Patti
Hello! We are Brian and Patti. Thank you so much for taking the time to learn a little bit more about us. Our story starts out in September of 1991. We were ring bearer and flower girl together in a wedding, at just five years old. Little did we know that 19 years later, we would walk the same aisle in the same church as husband and wife! We dated for almost a year and a half before we got married, but Patti had her eye on the cute farmer with dimples for much longer than that! We have now been married for almost 10 years and still love spending time together.

My child is already born. Can I still make an adoption plan
In many cases, you can still place your child for adoption after he or she is born.
Finding peace through open adoption
“Bethany made my adoption journey the best choice for me and those I care for. Three different families have become one because of the love and respect that we share—and I’ve found my place as a birth mom in each one of them.”
"When I was pregnant and pursuing an adoption plan, people told me I needed to ask forgiveness for “abandoning my child.” They wanted me to feel ashamed, but Bethany helped take the sting out of their words by reassuring me I had no reason to feel shame. Now my vision is to keep telling this story so other birth moms know they’re not alone.”
“Ten years ago, I was pregnant for the first time, and I was in jail. Making an adoption plan for my son didn’t mean I loved him any less; I just didn’t want my child to end up in the system. My life circumstances wouldn’t mean a life sentence for him.”
"When I found out I was pregnant with twins at age 18, I didn’t know where to turn. I thought, ‘How am I going to become the mom I want to be?’ Bethany helped provide care for my boys while I found a stable job. Today, my boys are thriving in my home.”
“Today, I am substance-free. I’m married with two biological children and two stepchildren. And I still have thoughts and emotions to process about that difficult time in my life, including my decision to make an adoption plan. That’s an experience most people just don’t understand."
