Dear Expectant Mother,
We can only imagine the emotions you are feeling as you consider the best path forward for you and your baby. We want you to know how much we admire your strength and courage in making such a profound decision. We are so grateful you are taking the time to consider us as potential parents for your precious child.
The love we already feel for your baby is overwhelming, and the opportunity to raise a child is something we have longed for with all our hearts. We have tried to grow our family for many years, and our desire to nurture and guide a little one has only grown stronger. Our lives are filled with love, laughter, and joy, and we are excited to share all of that with a child. We have wonderful, supportive families who are just as excited as we are to welcome a new addition.
We love that the adoption process allows us to connect with someone as strong and selfless as you. We want to assure you that if you choose us, your baby will be cherished beyond measure. We promise to provide a safe, loving home where they can grow, learn, and thrive. We look forward to sharing our passions with them, from reading and music to family traditions and adventures.
Thank you for considering us. Whatever your decision may be, we wish you and your baby nothing but love and peace.
With deepest gratitude and love, Jacob & Ruth
Our Lifestyle
We’re Ruth and Jacob, a creative, curious, and easy-going couple who enjoy a good mix of adventure, relaxation, and time with the people we love. Ruth is thoughtful, grounded, and quick-witted, with a love for reading, puzzles, and board games. Jacob is laid-back, humorous, and creative, with interests in music, fantasy novels and games.
We share a love of exploring new places and spending time at the beach. We also have plenty of favorite traditions at home, from game nights and movies to quiet evenings with books or music. Lucy, our beagle, brings plenty of personality to our home and is usually nearby, either looking for attention or settling in for a nap. More than anything, we enjoy laughing together, spending time with family and friends, and creating memories wherever we happen to be.
Our Home & Neighborhood
Our Family & Friends
We are deeply connected to our extended family, finding joy and support in our close-knit relationships. Ruth is the youngest of 15 grandchildren and has a very large family. She has two sisters, both married, with children ranging from 5 to 13 years old (five children in total). Her sisters and parents live nearby, allowing for frequent family gatherings. We love spending time with our nieces and nephews, always planning something fun like bowling, swimming, or trips to the drive-in. Holiday cookouts are a favorite family tradition, where we all gather to enjoy good food and play board games.
Although Jacob’s brother and parents live a bit farther away, we stay in touch regularly and make sure to visit during holidays and for special occasions, like birthdays. We enjoy spending time with Jacob’s family outdoors, whether it’s fishing or hiking on their family farm.
Adoption in Our Lives
Family has always been incredibly important to us, and becoming parents has long been a dream we share. After several years of hoping to grow our family, we began pursuing adoption as another way that dream could become a reality.
Our many nieces and nephews have given us a glimpse of how meaningful it is to encourage, nurture, and be present for a child as they grow. We love being part of their lives and watching their personalities unfold. Those relationships have only strengthened our desire to become parents. We hope to build a family where a child feels deeply loved, supported, encouraged to be themselves, and surrounded by people who will always be in their corner.
