dear expectant mother

Dear Expectant Mother,

Thank you for taking the time to consider us as a potential safe space for you and your baby throughout this journey. Our family understands this decision is not one to be taken lightly, and we understand there is no blueprint for how this process should look. Your selflessness for your child is something that takes great strength and courage, and for that, we are also thankful.

If we are lucky enough to be selected by you, please know this child will be unconditionally loved, cherished, cared for, and encouraged throughout their life. They will not only be loved by us but an amazing older sister, cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents. We are also lucky to have the best friends, who have become our closest family and village in any time of need.

We look forward to getting to know you and working together through this process of uncertainty. We believe the best way to achieve anything is through open and honest communication, whether it is an easy topic or a difficult one. We promise to always be transparent, honest, and open with each conversation and encounter. We are hopeful we will get to know you and your baby soon.

With love,
Amanda and Jazmine
