dear expectant mother
We are so humbled and blessed by you taking the time to read our letter. We know this is an extremely difficult time for you as you are trying to figure out the best option for you and your precious baby. We truly admire your courage in your decision, but from our standpoint, we can assure you your baby will be happy and surrounded by all the love two parents can offer. We promise he or she will have endless smiles, laughs, kisses, and hugs from both of us.
Your baby will learn about family traditions and how to love, be respectful, and enjoy life. We strongly believe in a child's education, and our child will have our full support. Our child will have a real childhood, playing outside with his or her parents, going to museums, helping Mom make cookies, and traveling. We look forward to a future with endless memories in the making and sharing a lifetime with the best we can offer the baby. This baby is so loved and wanted, and he or she will fulfill the greatest love and blessing we both want in our lives: becoming parents. We are happy to share any other information you would like. We are so honored you took the time to read our profile.
About Us
Hello! We are Abel and Cristina. Abel is a local truck driver who delivers freight to different companies around the area. Cristina is a digital graphic and packaging artist; she creates retail packaging for large corporations. We both love to make new friends in our workplaces and interact with others. We first met when we were kids, then teenagers, and then once more when we were adults; you could say our destiny was to be together. To this day, we are a team and love to make each other smile and laugh. We are an affectionate couple and love to travel and make new memories. We do what we can for one another and have each other’s back on everything because we know how important our relationship is to one another.
Our Home & Pets
Located on a quiet block, our home is a three-bedroom ranch that smells like home cooking, is perfect for a nursery, and has beautiful furniture, a large living area, and a fully finished basement we would love to convert into a large play area for a child. Surrounded by colorful flowers in the front and back yard in the summertime, our home also includes a yard that is perfect for games of hide and seek, other outdoor games, and cookouts with the family. It is also located two blocks away from an elementary school that is across the street from a community park with a play area, a pool, a sports field, and a variety of recreational events for children and families.
Our Extended Family
Our extended family is huge! Cristina has six siblings, and Abel has ten. Our parents also have a lot of brothers and sisters with lots of kids. They are all very family oriented like we are, and they like to plan family gatherings, they see each other frequently, and they love to be in the company of one another. Our best times are family times when we can all just enjoy each other’s company at an outing, meet for a meal or at someone's house for the evening.
Our family is so excited for us to adopt that they have already expressed how they can’t wait to meet the baby. Just the other day in the store, the expectant grandma wanted to start buying the baby some gifts, and we had to hold her back for now. They all want what makes us happy, and in their eyes, the baby will be theirs too. We can’t wait to share and make new traditions with the baby and have them in all the pictures with their cousins. We know this baby will be a wonderful addition not only to our lives but to all of our family as well.
What Led Us To Adoption
After years of struggling with miscarriages and infertility, we decided to pursue adoption to become parents a different way. We have so much love for one another and our family that choosing to adopt was just so natural. We have friends and family who have been adopted, and our family is so supportive and excited to be a part of the baby’s life. We know adoption will fill the piece in our hearts and lives that is missing and was meant to be. Our desire to become parents is so great, and we are filled with lots of love and affection for this baby we haven’t met yet.

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!
