dear expectant mother

I can't even begin to imagine all the emotions you are going through. Such a difficult decision weighing so heavily on your heart, and you choosing adoption shows how courageous and compassionate you are by putting your baby's needs first. Your generous sacrifice will make some family, if not me, feel very blessed. If I am lucky enough to be considered to be a mother to your baby, I would love to go through this entire process with you, if that is what you wish. If you choose me, your baby will be loved beyond measure, safe, nurtured, and protected, and they will receive a good education. The county I live in has high-ranking school systems in Indiana.

Ever since I was a little girl, I dreamed of being a mom, but unfortunately, my doctor said the chances of me getting pregnant were very low. I am so grateful to you and all the other brave women who choose adoption, giving women like me, who are unable to have a biological child, the opportunity to be the mother they have always wanted to be.

Thank you for considering me.

Since retiring, my parents have moved in with me, so there will always be at least one responsible, loving adult with your baby.

About Me

Ever since I was a little girl, I was always told I was an old soul. When you meet me, I'm quiet at first, listening to learn about you, and then I turn into a bubbly chatterbox who's always smiling. I am an optician at a nationwide retail vision center in Indiana. I've worked for this company for the past 21 years, working my way up from cashier to vision center associate and, for the past three years, vision center manager. I love my job and find satisfaction in helping patients, especially the young children and the elderly. I have several patients who request me to help them. My grandma instilled in me the love of crafting since the age of six, when we would do crafts together. I love to travel, which led to my passion for photography. My goal is to see all 50 states.

My Home & Pets

I live in a quiet, friendly neighborhood with a beautiful city park down the street. Residents always make sure the holidays are children-oriented and fun is had by all. I live in a four-bedroom, three-bath house with a fully fenced-in backyard. My yard is large enough for a swing set, sandbox, and anything else a child might want. Four years ago, I rescued two eight-week-old Lab-mix puppies, Whiskey and Graycie, who are lovable, friendly family members who love to cuddle with each other.

Extended Family

My mom and dad have been married for 36 years. For the first two years of my life, I was raised by my mom. Then she met my dad, and they were married within eight months and are as happy today as the first day they met. My mom worked at a bank as a bank teller until she retired to become a full-time mom. After getting out of the military, my dad worked as a plumber until he retired in 2018.

I come from a large extended family. I have eight aunts and uncles and 12 cousins. Since relocating to Indiana and the loss of my grandparents, we've grown apart except for one family who stays in contact on a regular basis.
My best friend for the past 21 years has an eleven-year-old daughter who is not only my goddaughter, but I consider her my niece, and she calls me Auntie.

What Led Me To Adoption

My favorite vacation spot is Lake Placid, Florida. My parents and I rent a vacation home there yearly and spend 90% of our time in the private saltwater pool. It's nice to be able to relax and not have to worry about anything. The house sits on a canal leading to a big lake, and I love listening and watching all the wildlife in the water and the trees.

Since we all enjoy seeing the countryside, we drive from Indiana to Florida, enjoying several stops along the way. This year we decided to stay in the Spring with a stop in Atlanta, GA, to take in some quick sightseeing.

We always have an amazing time bonding and playing games. I especially like all the wonderful food my dad cooks on the grill.
