Dear Birthparent(s):

Hello, We would like to thank you for considering us to be the adoptive parents of your child. We know this is a difficult time for you. Although we are excited about becoming parents, we also realize that you face enormous decisions concerning your future and that of your child. We wish you all the best as you go though the process. After learning more about us, we hope you'll feel comfortable with us and will trust that your child would be in loving hands. *We are a young, Christian couple and our life together is special. We have always dreamed of children and after struggling with multiple miscarriages, we came to accept that God has a different plan for us to have a family. Adoption is something we've always admired and we are convinced that this is the direction to take. We can't wait to build a family! We will raise our child in much the same ways we were raised: a positive outlook towards life, lots of encouragement, a lot of love, and lots of fun! We are fortunate to have flexible schedules that can accommodate childcare needs. We believe in inspiring our children's dreams, encouraging their efforts, and letting them decide what activities and ultimately, what career path to follow. We want you to know that your child will be loved everyday, tucked into bed everynight, and giving the best opportunities to fulfill their own dreams. Your child will always know their story, where they came from, and that you loved them more than yourself. We hope that you have peace with you decision.

Qualities We Love About Each Other

From Brooke: Chad has a big heart and is always willing to help others. He is loving, patient, loyal and supportive. While he is passionate about life and family, he is also a great friend. He loves cooking on the grill and enjoys just about any sport or game that will give him a good challenge. Chad is talented and creative through his work as a successful salesman. Nothing makes me love him more than when I see him interacting with his nephews or children of our friends. He really enjoys being around children.

About Us

We met in high school and dated for many years before we got married. We are a happy and fun-loving couple with lots of energy! We have three pets: two cats and a dog. Together we love to vacation, watch movies, go skiing, rollerblade, jet ski, play sports, or simply relax on our backyard swing. We both adore children and will love being parents. We can only dream of someday being able to call a child our own. We believe good parenting is a balance of showing love and value, spending time together, having fun, and teaching. It will be amazing to see our child's first smile, first steps, first everything. We daydream of one day taking a long walk and pushing our baby in a stroller. We can’t wait to play in the snow, build snowmen and make snow angels. The little things like reading bedtime stories, learning how to ride a bike, playing in the park and saying I love you are what will make life worth living!
