dear expectant mother
Thank you for having the strength and courage to consider adoption and for taking the time to learn about us. We won’t pretend to fully understand how difficult this decision may be for you, but we want you to know you are not alone. We understand this is not an easy choice, but we hope that by opening our hearts and sharing our story with you, we can help you find peace with your decision.
We hope you find comfort knowing your baby will be the center of our world if you choose us. We promise to give your child a life full of unconditional love, unwavering support, and endless opportunities. We will raise them to be a good, kind, strong person who follows their dreams and knows their value. They will have a childhood filled with laughter, family, and lifelong memories.
We could not be more grateful for your decision to consider the selfless act of adoption and for considering us as parents for your baby.
*Dear baby: Your fur brother and sister can’t wait to meet their new best friend.
With love,
Christopher and Brittney
About Us
Our first date was in 2014, and we have been side by side ever since! Brittney is an extroverted introvert. She is a bit shy but has an incredible sense of humor that comes out around her family and friends. She has the biggest heart of anyone you will ever meet and absolutely loves animals. She enjoys hanging out with friends but also loves just staying at home and watching movies. Chris is an eternal optimist who finds silver linings in everything. He is loyal and is always there for his family and friends. He loves watching sports, golfing, cooking, reading, and playing piano. We love to travel and go on several trips every year. We have lots of family traditions, but we especially love the ones that come along with the Christmas season. More than anything, we love just being together, hanging out with our dogs on our back patio.
Our Home & Pets
We built our home three years ago: a two-story house on a cul-de-sac, with a large backyard overlooking a small lake. The neighborhood has a lagoon, walking trails around lakes, and a playground right down the street. An elementary school is currently under construction within walking distance. Our neighborhood has a strong sense of community, and everyone looks out for each other. We live in the suburbs but are a short drive to one of the biggest cities in the country. Our community has a coastal small-town vibe with lots of restaurants and recreational activities. We have two dogs: TJ and Peyton. TJ is a border collie who lives to play ball. Peyton is a loving, sassy Shetland sheepdog. They can’t wait for a human brother or sister.
Our Extended Family
Nothing is more important to us than family. Brittney is the oldest of two siblings. Her parents, brother, and sister-in-law live close by, and we see them often. Her family loves to get together to swim and play board games during the summer and watch the Steelers during football season. They are a goofy bunch who are always laughing about something.
Chris is the oldest of three siblings. His brother and sister-in-law live a short drive away. We love visiting them to go to UT football games, golf, and BBQ. His parents, sister, and brother-in-law live in California. While Chris’s family does not live quite as close, they get together a few times a year for vacations or weekend trips. They are a sports crazy family who love to travel and eat.
Our family has lots of traditions: summer BBQs, annual trips, big Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve dinners, and many more. We enjoy being around each other and always have a good time no matter what we are doing.
What Led Us To Adoption
We could not be more excited about adding a child to our family through adoption. We both feel God has called us to be parents, and after finding out we could not have biological children, we now know adoption is the path toward expanding our family. Christopher’s grandmother was adopted, and we have several friends who are adoptive parents. We have seen firsthand the blessing adoption is, and we can’t wait to be parents!

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!
