dear expectant mother
We want to first thank you. We are so humbled to be considered. We have an immense amount of respect and admiration for you considering adoption. While we cannot pretend to know what this is like, we would be forever grateful if chosen.
If we are fortunate enough to raise your child, we can promise you your child will be surrounded by support, love, and warmth. We have an incredible amount of love and respect for one another and believe our marriage is a strong foundation for us to be parents. We have extensive extended family and friends who cannot wait for us to grow our family. We are also fortunate to be living in a diverse community where our child will be able to develop and mature surrounded by all types of people.
We will also expose our child to different experiences, cultures, and places. We envision our lives spent traveling and exploring with him or her and introducing our child to sports, music, books, animals, nature, history, and anything else he or she has an interest in. We are fortunate to have varied life experiences and resources, which we will use to provide every opportunity possible. We can promise you we will do whatever we can to make sure our child has the best upbringing we can provide him or her, and we will encourage our child to be true to him/herself.
With love,
April & Liz
About Us
We are two hardworking, fun-loving, passionate women who were fortunate enough to find each other. We bring out the best in one another, challenge each other, and are always quick with a laugh! We have two adorable pugs and are overjoyed about the possibility of introducing them to our adopted child. We have a close-knit group of friends, many of whom have children, and we love being a part of their lives. We thrive on trying new things and exploring, whether that is within our town or in a different state or country. We are passionate about health and try to be active and mindful each day. We love to cook, read books, and find new TV series to watch together. We are both attorneys with the federal government. We are dedicated to our jobs and happy to have rewarding positions with a great balance between work and home.
Our Home & Pets
We live in a neighborhood with many small parks throughout as well as a pool. There are also two large parks, both with several playgrounds, walking paths, duck feeding ponds, sports fields, etc. We are surrounded by diverse families, many with babies and young children. An elementary school and large public library are both within walking distance. Our house is full of love and warmth. It has three bedrooms and plenty of space for your child to grow and play. We are very close to our neighbors, and your child would be surrounded by a supportive and loving community. We have two pugs, and they both love kids. They are laid back and love to snuggle.
Our Extended Family
Liz is the youngest of four children with a very large extended family on both her mother’s and father’s side. Liz’s family celebrates many traditions throughout the year, but the ones we are most excited about involve her families’ heritage and culture. Liz is the godparent for many of her five nieces and nephews, and we both play an active role in their lives.
April has a younger sister and is close to her and her parents. April’s favorite family traditions involve watching college football and our Christmas Eve celebrations.
We both have family recipes and traditions that have been passed down for generations and look forward to continuing these while creating our own with our children. We see our families throughout the year, and they are ecstatic about us having a child, especially our nieces and nephews.
What Led Us To Adoption
We both have significant people in our lives who have either been adopted or adopted a child themselves. We are humbled and have immense gratitude to be considered as adoptive parents to your child. Since we met, we have always discussed that our family would include children, if we were so fortunate. Adoption was always a possibility for us at some point, even if we could birth children. For the past three years, we have attempted to conceive through IUI and IVF. Unfortunately, it has been unsuccessful, and we experienced a miscarrage. We decided now was the time to pursue adoption. While we always believed adoption would be a part of our lives, we are hopeful our adoption story will begin sooner rather than later.

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!
