dear expectant mother
Dear Expectant Mother,
We would like to start off by saying we know this decision is one of the hardest decisions you have ever had to make. We know this decision takes a level of strength that can only come from the depths of your soul. We are very proud of the bravery you are showing by seeking options for your child.
There are no words to express the gratitude we have for this magnificent gift you are considering giving us. If you choose us, we will raise your child to know the sacrifices you made for them. We understand and appreciate the fact that your decision was not reached without careful consideration and deliberate thought for your child’s future. We have discussed, thought about, and prayed about this journey for over a year now. We can assure you we will love your child unconditionally and will provide a nurturing, caring, and encouraging home to grow up in.
Thank you for considering us and hopefully choosing us. We can never express our gratitude. If you choose us, we are open to any level of continued communication you’re comfortable with. We sincerely appreciate you considering us.
Casey and Jerry
About Us
We are Casey and Jerry. We live near the beach resorts of Delaware and Maryland. Casey runs her own Etsy store (jewelry, mugs, and T-shirts), and Jerry is in sales in the building materials industry. Casey’s Etsy store allows her to stay at home except for local trade shows she chooses to do, and Jerry’s schedule is pretty flexible to where he works remote from home part of the time, allowing him to be home every evening for time with Casey and our fur babies. We enjoy going to the beach, swimming in our pool, spending as much time with family as we can, magnet fishing, traveling, following college football, and spending time with our adult daughter, who recently moved to South Carolina as an athletic trainer for a Division 1 football program.
Our Home & Pets
We live in a four-bedroom farmhouse in Delaware on about 1.5 acres. Our home is located in a country setting. We share our home with an 11-year-old chocolate Lab named Bentley and two rescue cats, Stella and Lila. We consider all of our fur babies to be members of our family. We are in a very good school district as it is not overpopulated and has an outstanding academic program. Although we live in the country, we are just a short drive to the beach areas both in Maryland and Delaware as well as several members of our family.
Our Extended Family
Casey’s mother and father are still living; her father lives in the same county we do, while her mother lives in northwest Pennsylvania. Casey’s stepfather passed away suddenly in 2019. Casey is the oldest of four children. Her two sisters and their families live close by, while her brother lives in Iowa.
Jerry’s mother passed away in 2017; his father lives in Oklahoma. Jerry is the youngest of three; his brother lives in Virginia, and his sister lives in Oklahoma as well. We have four nieces and three nephews, ranging in age from one to 19. We are a big part of their lives and never miss a special event in their lives.
We enjoy family get-togethers as often as we can but especially at holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas; it is tradition that we welcome family at our home. We enjoy having cook-outs together where we will play corn-hole, horseshoes, and team games like trivia. Our extended family on both sides is very supportive, and we are very close knit.
What Led Us To Adoption
We are excited about the opportunity to adopt a child since we would like to share our love by bringing a child into our family. We are unable to have biological children due to medically necessary surgery. We have talked about this journey for more than a year, and we both feel sharing our lives and love with a child would bring us a joy that goes beyond words. Casey has birthed and raised a child, and that child obtained a master’s degree in 2020; Jerry has never experienced the joy of raising a child and would love nothing more than to share and experience like this with Casey.

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!
