dear expectant mother

Dear Expectant Mother,

We are so grateful you are considering us as adoptive parents and understand how challenging this decision is for you. We can’t imagine the different emotions you are feeling during this process, but we can assure you your child will grow up with two loving parents who will devote themselves to your child’s happiness and wellbeing if you choose us. Considering us is truly a blessing, and we hope our profile gives you a glimpse into our lives and the possible future home of your child.

We have been talking about having children since we met, and there are already so many things we are looking forward to doing with your child, like spending weekends on the beach, going hiking and playing in the creek, carving pumpkins on Halloween, and jumping in the giant leaf piles in our backyard. Between our families and friends, we have a village around us, which means your child will be supported in everything they do. Their future grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins are already excited to introduce family traditions, like cooking pizzelles on the holidays and making traditional Venezuelan hallacas over Christmas.

While this decision does not come easily, we both promise to support you every step of the way and are looking forward to answering any questions you have for us. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your consideration.

All the best,
Conor and Dan
