dear expectant mother
The very first thing we want you to know is that we love you and appreciate all you have done in considering an adoption plan. We can't wait to see your little bundle and to raise him or her with unconditional love and kindness with God as our guide.
We want to be able to spend time with him or her, teach your child to bake cakes and cookies, and show your baby as much of the world as we can. We want to take your baby apple picking and strawberry picking and show him or her how fruits and vegetables are grown. Your baby will enjoy playing in the outdoors in the bright sunshine and snuggling close at night under the stars. We want to fill your child’s days with creativity by reading to them every night so they may have sweet dreams and hope for the future. They’ll enjoy going to the zoo, learn while having fun at the science center, and appreciate the nearby botanical gardens. They will have grandparents who will spoil them with love and care and family and friends who will love to see your baby’s smiling face.
We are so honored that you would consider choosing us to take care of your baby. We want to put your mind at ease that your baby will be safe, happy, and loved.
About Us
We met doing something we absolutely enjoy: going to conventions and dressing up in costumes. We both enjoy comics, reading books, and movies of various genres. Bob works as a factory tech, while Brandy works for a bank as an underwriter and data entry person. Once we met each other, we just knew we would be together for the rest of our lives. We are both hardworking individuals who care about others and are always willing to lend a hand. We were delighted to find out that each other was a Christian and held the same beliefs of treating people with respect and dignity. It might be for charity or just for fun, but we never tire of spending our free time helping others. We also enjoy just being together in each other's company and are always holding hands and wrapping our arms around each other.
Our Home & Pets
We have a painted turtle, three pups, and a bearded dragon. Faye, our oldest, is a dachshund and is a lazy seven-year-old pup. Once you’re a part of her pack, she wants to take care of you. Jack is our five-year-old shih-tzu, who is our biggest helper. He loves taking out the trash and supervising meal preparations. Our little five-year-old Ciel is a chihuahua mix who loves to cuddle once he gets to know you. Our bearded dragon, Savage, couldn't be further from his name if he tried. He’s a loving lizard who enjoys car rides and hanging out on our shoulders while we do chores around the house.
Our Extended Family
Most of our extended family live over two hours away, but Brandy’s dad lives closest, while Bob’s parents live about an hour away. We gather together for birthdays, holidays, and special events, and we still talk often to those we don’t get to see as much as we would like. Brandy is an only child, while Bob has two brothers who live out of state with children of their own and numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins. Brandy still has one grandparent alive along with five cousins and two aunts and uncles. Even though it seems like a big family, it feels like a close-knit family. In addition, we have our friends, whom we treat as our family.
What Led Us To Adoption
After we had been married for a few years, we wanted to start growing our family. We had always talked about the possibility of adoption and wanted to give a child a home filled with love. When we were unable to attain our goal of becoming pregnant, we decided it was time to follow our dream of adopting. It was a simple decision since we are surrounded by family members and friends who have been adopted or have adopted children themselves.

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!
