To you

Dear Friends,

We can’t begin to imagine the enormity of this decision you are making. It is probably one that you never thought you would be faced with. You hold a spot near and dear to our hearts and our prayers go out to you. Thank you for taking the time to consider us. A baby is the most precious gift we could ever be given.

We love being parents. We have always wanted a big family, but the birth of our son Gavin was very difficult, and it would not be safe for us to have more children biologically. As both of us come from big families, we have always wanted to give our kids the gift of siblings. Our family does not yet feel complete. We have felt for some time that the Lord would bless us with another child through adoption. This may not be how we originally envisioned ourselves having our family, but something about it feels very right.

As parents, we promise to instill good values and morals. We love the Lord and will try to teach our children about all that He has done for us. We promise to nurture them and help them discover new things. We will also teach each of our children that he or she is loved and is of infinite worth. We promise to keep them safe and to share their story with them.

Thank you for considering us for the most sacred of all gifts- your child. After all, in the end, it’s all about love.

With love,
Ryan and Nicole
