dear expectant mother

Dear Expectant Mother,

I am wholeheartedly open to sharing my story with you, and I'm eager to learn about yours. I may not know what has led you to this moment or where life will take you, but I believe that sometimes our greatest challenges can transform into incredible adventures, and our deepest sorrows can give birth to the most profound joy. Your story is unique and remarkable, and if you were to choose me to raise your child, it would be an honor to include them in the pages of our lives—celebrating your legacy.

I believe that finding the right balance of involvement, tailored to the unique needs and desires of the birth family, can be in the child's best interest. I am committed to respecting your preferences, whether that means maintaining close connections, sharing updates and milestones, or honoring your wish for more privacy. My son's birth families and extended families play a significant role in our lives, but I understand that every situation is unique. I share this to demonstrate my commitment to the well-being of any child I am fortunate enough to parent, and my willingness to adapt to the level of support and involvement that works best for everyone involved.

I understand that considering adoption must require immense courage and selflessness on your part. At this extraordinary junction, we meet as strangers, yet we have the opportunity to create a new path together. Everyone faces life's challenges in their own way, and I cannot presume to know what you may be experiencing as you contemplate an adoption plan. However, I hope to offer you my support in any way that aligns with your needs and desires.
