dear expectant mother

There are no words that can ever express how grateful we are that you are taking the time to get to know us during this confusing time. We cannot understand what you are going through nor the decisions you must make, but we can make certain promises to you.

If you decide we are the family for your child, we will always be there to make sure they are loved and supported unconditionally. We will make sure they are in a household full of wonder and encouraged to make and learn from mistakes. We will be there to kiss their boo-boos and laugh at their jokes. Brenden makes a few dad jokes, so they’ll be in good company.

Your child will always be our number one priority. You are a part of him or her and will always have a presence in their life to the extent you are comfortable with. If you choose us, we will make sure you are honored as you will have given us the greatest gift anybody ever could. They will know this decision was made out of love.

We grew up with supportive parents, family, and friends, and we will provide that for him or her. As parents, we believe it will be our place to raise him or her to be their best self as they grow and learn who that is. We look forward to helping them on that journey.

Yours truly,
Brenden and Amanda
