dear expectant mother

Dear Expectant Mother,

We cannot imagine the challenges you’ve had to face or the decisions you’ve had to make that have brought you to our profile. This must be the most difficult decision in the world.

The only consolation we can offer is to let you know what type of parents we will be if you choose us. We will be kind, nurturing, and supportive. We have so much to offer and feel we have just been waiting for the opportunity to do so (just ask our spoiled dog, Mabel). We will be thoughtful and educational, and above all else, we will be loving.

Words do not do justice to what we feel as we are writing this letter and, at the same time, likely do not capture the depth of emotion you have felt through this process. Please know, from us to you, we sincerely want to give all we can to your child. We promise to care for them and provide them with a stable, comfortable, and loving home. We promise to be there for them when they need us and to be their protector, role model, or shoulder to cry on. We promise, above all else, to be the best parents we can be.

Sincerely,
Evan and Rachel
