dear expectant mother
Dear Expectant Mother,
We would like to thank you for taking the time to view our profile and for considering us as parents for your child. We hope that by viewing our profile, you can get a good picture of what our family life would be like and feel confident in your final decision.
We are tremendously fortunate to have come from very stable and loving families, and we are excited for an opportunity to provide that same kind of love and stability for a baby. It is absolutely certain your baby will grow up in or home knowing he or she is very, very loved.
We have grown tremendously after the adoption of our first child, Lily. Even though lots of things about our lives have changed now that we are parents, our desire to expand our family is as strong as ever. We can’t wait to begin sharing our lives with a baby and are absolutely ready for the lifelong commitment.
We hope you consider us for your adoption choice and wish you and your baby the best regardless of what you decide.
Adam & Grace
About Us
We are Adam and Grace. Our daughter's name is Lily, and she’s ten months old. Adam is an economist and is coming up on six years with the same employer. Grace is a full-time mom and loves her job. Lily is growing fast and loves to crawl laps around the house and snack on her new favorite treat: banana. Recently Adam has started working from home and gets to check in on Grace and Lily throughout each day. We enjoy spending time together at home, walking our dog, and strolling down to the community pool during the summer. We recently moved back to our hometown and really love being near friends and family again.
Our Home & Pets
The three of us and our Great Dane, Appa (6), live in a brand new two-story home in Missouri. It is a quiet little suburb of a big city, very safe and spacious. We are close to both sides of the extended family and love to walk down the street to the community pool in the summertime. We are a short drive from all sorts of restaurants, some public gardens, two libraries, our church, and the local school.
Our Extended Family
Adam has two brothers and one sister. He is the oldest sibling but among the youngest of five more cousins. Adam is close to his siblings and parents, and they come to visit or we go to see them nearly every week. Two cousins live nearby, and we share holidays and other special times with them. Grace has a younger sister and a younger brother. Both live out of town, but we love to see them when they come home from time to time. Grace is very close to her parents, and we join them at church and many other activities throughout the week.
Our parents and siblings are extremely important. We recently moved back across the state so our family could be close to them as we grow together. Since our immediate family is so near, we love going on outings, playing board games at home, and sharing special days and weekends.
Our Adoption Story
We were recently blessed with a successful adoption through Angel in September of 2021. We brought Lilian Grace home shortly after she was born and have loved every minute of parenthood so far. We initially came to Angel seeking to grow our family after some failed fertility procedures and were running out of options. We had an overall wonderful experience and are excited to expand our family once again and give Lily the joy of being a big sister.

Choose a Family for
Your Baby With Confidence
As you browse our list of hopeful adoptive parents, you can feel confident in knowing that all of the adoptive families working with Angel Adoption are prepared to offer your baby a safe, stable, and loving environment along with a wealth of opportunities for a happy and fulfilling life.
Each adoptive parent has been thoroughly evaluated through a home study course conducted by a licensed agency. A completed home study means the family is emotionally, physically, and financially ready to adopt a baby.
The home study process includes assessments of each parent’s character, marital stability, financial situation, lifestyle, and medical history. The agency also runs background checks to verify there is no record of criminal activity or child abuse. In addition, a social worker will inspect the family’s home to ensure it is a safe environment for a child.
Furthermore, Angel Adoption requires each family to be educated on adopting and parenting. After a baby has been placed with the adoptive family, a social worker will continue to monitor and supervise the family. We go to great lengths to make sure all the families you have to choose from are going to be excellent parents for your baby!
