dear expectant mother
We would like to thank you deeply for taking the time to view our profile and for considering us as parents for your child. We hope that by viewing our profile, you can get a good picture of what our family life would be like and feel confident in your final decision.
We are tremendously fortunate to have come from very stable and loving families, and we are excited for an opportunity to provide that same kind of love and stability for a baby. It is absolutely certain your baby will grow up in or home knowing he or she is very, very loved.
We have been preparing to be parents for the last two years. As time has passed, we are all the more excited and ready for it. We’re ready for all the dirty diapers and sleepless nights. We are also looking forward to the joys of having kids, like helping our baby take their first steps, snuggling up by the fireplace on cold winter nights, and watching them compete in their favorite sports. Some of these things seem very far in the future, but it’s a journey that begins now. We can’t wait to begin sharing our lives with a baby and are absolutely ready for the lifelong commitment.
We hope you consider us for your adoption choice and wish you and your baby the best regardless of what you decide,
About Us
Grace currently works for a small start-up and is excited to become a stay-at-home mom after we adopt a baby. It has been her lifelong dream to be a mother, and she is so looking forward to the new adventure of parenting. Adam is an economist and is also excited to begin his new journey as a father. His job allows him to do lots of work from home, so he has great flexibility for being an active father. Ever since meeting when we were in high school, we have been very happy together as a couple. We have been through a lot of big changes throughout the years, and these have given us the opportunity to see each other grow.
Our Home & Pets
We live in a three-bedroom split-level house with a big backyard and a nice outdoor deck. Our neighborhood is quiet and safe, and lots of families go out walking when the weather is nice. Nearby, there are a few parks, hiking trails, and a small school. We have a great Dane named Appa who is a ball of fun and loves making new friends. Grace has been working on a garden in the backyard. We are looking forward to sharing our lives with another family member.
Our Extended Family
We both have close families. Each of our parents come and visit us from across the state regularly, and we travel there during holidays and family events. Adam has three younger siblings, and Grace has two younger siblings. Our parents are relatively young still and have stable jobs and households. They are extremely supportive of our decision to adopt and are very excited to help us throughout the journey.
One favorite tradition from Adam’s side of the family is Christmas elves. On Christmas Eve, before going to the church service, Adam and all his family would be packed in the car ready to go, but his mom would somehow always forget that the stove was left on. She would go back in the house and make them wait in the car while she took care of it. Miraculously, after they got back from the Christmas Eve service, Santa’s elves had visited ahead of Christmas day and left small gifts on their beds! This is just one of the many traditions we are so excited to continue with our children.
What Led Us To Adoption
We started trying to have a baby about two years ago and discovered recently we have some trouble with infertility. After some unsuccessful treatments, we have decided adoption will be the best way to grow our family. We have seen many personal examples of successful adoptions, and these encouraged us. Adoption gives us great hope that we will grow our family. We aren’t going to let infertility stop us from building a large, loving family.

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!
