Dear Expectant Parent(s),
We want to start off by saying thank you for choosing life and considering an adoption plan for your child. The wisdom and maturity to know that adoption may be what fits best in your situation is a true testament for the love you have for your child and we truly respect you for this. We hope you are finding the guidance and support that feels right for you at this time.
Max and I have known we wanted a large family since before meeting each other, and we were not at all expecting any infertility struggles. After a long road of doctoring, we miraculously conceived our now five-year-old son, Wilfred. Since then, we have had many losses, surgical interventions and unsuccessful infertility treatments. Deciding with what to do next, we started researching adoption and our hearts opened wide to the idea of growing our family through adoption. We adopted our son, Benjamin, who is now one and a half years old. He has brightened our world and taught us that love truly makes a family. We are so blessed that adoption is an option for us.
Being parents has been our dream from the start. We love to work and play with our boys while they learn alongside us. You’ll find us being silly with our boys, dancing, singing, and enjoying our everyday life. They open our eyes to the purest things in life. We vow to love and care for our children and provide a stable family and household. Max is a dad who is always there to protect, provide, dream, build, create and play with our kids. Megan is a caring mom who teaches our children and shows love every day in so many ways. Love and family time will always be plenty and our children will always have our support. If we are the family to be chosen to be your child’s family, we promise to always and forever provide so much support and love. We will be his or her biggest advocates and always make you a part of their life.
Thank you for taking the time to learn about us and to consider us to be your child’s parents and family. We do not take it lightly that you are making an incredibly difficult and loving decision for your precious child. We honor your love and devotion to your child and hope that you will consider meeting us. We will be thinking of you and your baby in this time of big decisions.
Love,
Max & Megan
