dear expectant mother

Dear Expectant Mother,

Thank you for taking the time to get to know us. We cannot imagine the difficult and courageous decision you are facing, and we deeply admire your strength and love for your baby. We are truly honored to be considered as adoptive parents.
We are Coleman and Neema, a married couple living a joyful and stable life together. As a gay couple, we knew adoption was the right path for us. Rather than pursuing IVF, we feel a strong commitment to building our family through adoption.

We are at a wonderful place in our lives—secure in our careers, settled in our home, and surrounded by family and friends who are eager to embrace a child. Our multicultural background (Neema is Persian and Coleman is Caucasian) enriches our lives with traditions, diversity, and food from around the world. Education, travel, and community are central to our lives, and we look forward to giving a child every opportunity to grow, learn, and thrive.

Adoption has touched Neema’s extended family, showing us how beautiful it can be when approached with respect and openness. We bring that same mindset to this journey, and we look forward to building a connection with you grounded in trust.

We dream of bedtime stories, cooking meals together, celebrating holidays, and traveling as a family. Above all, your child will grow up in a safe, joyful home filled with love.

With gratitude,
Coleman & Neema
