Anastasia & Matt

Dear Expectant Mother,

First and foremost, we want to say thank you for taking a few minutes to learn about us and the life we’ve built together. It’s impossible to really summarize who we are as people in a few short paragraphs, but the two words we hope come to mind as you read our story are love and laughter. These have been constants for us, and we have relied on them through our struggles with fertility and the uncertainty of the adoption process.

Of course, we don’t have to tell you about uncertainty. We have so much respect and appreciation for you and for the difficult decision you have to make. If you choose to trust us with your child, we promise to earn that trust every single day. That means so much more than taking them on vacations to Disney World or creating a winter wonderland for them every Christmas morning (although both will definitely happen). It goes beyond family game nights or weekend walks for ice cream (although there will be plenty of those too). Above all, it means that your child will wake up each morning knowing they are loved unconditionally and that we will always be in their corner through all of life’s ups and downs.

Thank you again for your time, and we hope to have the chance to meet you someday.

Sincerely, Matt and Anastasia
