dear expectant mother

Dear Expectant Mother,

We can only imagine this is an extremely confusing and difficult time for you while you physically, mentally, and emotionally calculate your future and the future of your baby. We hope you are in a place where you feel loved and supported through this journey, and we are grateful to you for considering adoption for those of us unable to grow our family in a traditional way.

If you choose this path, we assure you we will honor that choice to the fullest of our abilities. We will cherish, love, and value this opportunity and will provide your child with any means of encouragement, care, and security we can manage. Your child will be raised to love, speak truth, seek justice, and celebrate beauty in any form. We will teach them all the joys of life, support them through the hardships, and challenge them to be the best version of themselves. We can’t promise perfection, but we can promise to do our best and go above and beyond any expectations you could have for us.

Thank you for your consideration and taking the time to get to know us!

With love and respect,
Bradley & Trey

About Us

When it comes to love, there’s a lot of it in our household—two best friends who just happen to be married. We met in Arkansas right after Bradley was stationed on the same base where Trey worked; we’ve been inseparable ever since. When we are home, you’ll find us cooking, laughing, playing games, wrestling with the dogs, working in the yard, or watching movies. We enjoy spending time together in our home and enjoying as much time with friends and family as possible. We are known to make everything an “adventure,” whether it is a trip to the store, trying a new restaurant, or taking the day to enjoy a trip to the aquarium, zoo, or weekend destination. We both come from strong families and can’t wait to have another player on our team!

Our Home & Pets

We are fortunate to have a home located within one of the largest metropolitan areas in the United States! Any food, activity, opportunity, or event you could possibly want is within reach, not to mention one of the largest airport hubs in the country! We thrive in the community, diversity, and opportunities this provides, and we take every chance we can to experience all there is to offer. When we aren’t out and about, we enjoy coming home to our suburban neighborhood. We have two large and loving rescues—Jefferson and Darcy (both Great Dane/Lab mixes)—who enjoy our fenced-in yard and being spoiled at every opportunity. We also have our cat, Luna, who has graciously allowed us to maintain her preferred lifestyle since showing up on our doorstep a few years ago.

Our Extended Family

We both come from families full of love, laughs, and large personalities! Between the two of us, you’ll find an array of parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, “aunties,” and long-time friends who enjoy traveling, adventuring, and just spending time together. Both families have a love for annual beach trips, although no one can agree on which beach is better. We tend to go back and forth between our family-preferred beaches, but no matter where you find us, we guarantee there will be a good time ahead for everyone!

Holidays are another special time for us. We enjoy the excuse to get together to celebrate each other, share our successes, remember those who are no longer with us, and, of course, indulge in our chance to spoil the little ones. Did we mention we are all foodies? There’s not a day that goes by that someone isn’t putting their latest culinary find, feat, or recipe in our shared family group chat.

What Led Us To Adoption

Since we started our journey together in 2016, the conversation of growing our family has been a topic of conversation. We thrive in supporting, guiding, and assisting those around us. With that same eagerness, we are finally at a point in our lives where we are excited and able to welcome a child into our home. This opportunity allows us to grow our family through the blessing of adoption. Through this process, we can provide a safe and loving environment for a little one and help them to flourish and shape the future of our families. We are so excited to become parents and make a little one our entire world!
