dear expectant mother
We know that you are not just making a decision—you are carrying life, carrying hope, and carrying dreams for your child's future. That is an enormous burden and a beautiful gift, all at once. Considering adoption takes profound strength and selfless love, and we deeply admire you for even exploring this path. We imagine you may be facing moments of doubt, pain, and also love. Please know that whatever you're feeling is valid, and that there is no right or wrong way to walk this path. If you choose us as adoptive parents, we're excited to forge this new path together.
Adoption is prevalent in Brendan's life, with multiple adopted family members and a very close friend who was adopted as a baby. They found love and peace through their journeys and had incredible support throughout. Any child in our care would receive the same unconditional love and support from our close family and friends. We like to imagine reading bedtime stories, waking up early to make pancakes, and cuddling with our furry best friends.
Should you choose us, your child will grow up understanding that their life was shaped not only by us, but by the incredible woman who gave them life and made the most loving and courageous decision on their behalf. Whatever decision you make, we wish you peace, support, and healing in the days ahead.
With open hearts,
Brendan and Lee-Ann
