Dear Expectant Parent(s),
From the moment we began our adoption journey, we have thought of you often. We deeply respect the love and courage it takes to consider adoption for your child. Though we haven’t met, we recognize the strength in your decision, and we want to offer a glimpse into who we are as you explore the best path for your child’s future.
Our journey to parenthood began with a shared love for family, which has always been a cornerstone of our relationship. After marriage, we were blessed with our daughter, Ridlee, and experienced the joys of parenthood. However, after trying to grow our family, we encountered challenges with conception. Through prayer and reflection, we felt led to adoption, and we are excited to grow our family in this meaningful way. Our hearts are filled with love, and we know that love is what truly makes a family.
As parents, we are committed to ensuring our children feel loved, safe, heard, and supported. We strive to nurture their unique gifts and encourage their passions. Ridlee loves art, something we don’t have expertise in, but we embrace her interests and create opportunities for her to flourish. We value education and exploration, and we make it a priority to spend time together as a family, whether traveling, exploring the outdoors, or enjoying a good movie over popcorn. Our hope is for our children to grow up with a sense of adventure, a broad view of the world, and family memories that will last a lifetime!
Thank you for considering adoption and for taking the time to read this. We are thinking of you as you make these difficult decisions, and we pray for peace and strength in your journey. God bless you.
Gratefully,
Cody and Megan
