dear expectant mother
We would like to first thank you. We are grateful that you would consider us to raise your baby. As people who want so badly to be parents but have struggled with infertility, we are unable to grow our family without you. We feel called by God to adopt, and you and your child would be such a blessing to our lives. We would consider ourselves unbelievably lucky to be able to welcome your child into our family.
We can’t wait to be parents, and we will raise a child with as much love as humanly possible. As an aunt and uncle to our nieces and nephews, an unofficial aunt and uncle to so many of our friends’ and cousins’ kids, and as Miss Grace and Mr. Jeff at Sunday School, we’ve gotten to shower love on so many kids and are ready to grow our own family. A baby in our family will be loved by many, many family members, friends, coworkers, and church members. They’ll have their own room, will be given so much attention, and will grow up knowing a very diverse mix of people. We will raise them to know God and to be a good person who loves and cares for others. We will also do everything possible to make sure they are healthy, happy, active, and learning as much as they can.
Thank you so much for considering us, and we promise to raise your child as our own, in a fun, safe, and loving home.
About Us
We have been married 11 years, have the cutest dog, and can’t wait to add to our family. We live in Texas. Jeff has lived his entire life here, while Grace (April) was born in the Philippines but moved to Texas when she was nine. We both come from big families, with lots of siblings and cute nieces and nephews. Grace works in transportation planning, helping to plan highway construction. Jeff works in advertising, writing TV and radio commercials along with all other kinds of advertising. We love walking our dog, playing board games, swimming, teaching Sunday School, and visiting our families. Grace also enjoys taking photos, while Jeff enjoys watching and playing sports. We can’t wait to add to our family and share our family traditions while starting new ones of our own.
Our Home & Pets
We live in a three-bedroom home in a big city in Texas. Across the street from our house is a middle school, and behind that is an elementary school with a giant playground. We look forward to taking your child and our dog, Montez, to walk and play there. Montez is a small Lhasa Apso who loves kids. We also have a big bedroom we will be converting into a nursery and plenty of room to play in the house. Our back yard has a pool, which we love to swim in and can’t wait to safely help your child enjoy. We have several friends close by, and all of them have small children too, ready to make a new friend.
Our Extended Family
We both come from big families. Grace has four brothers and one sister. Grace’s parents and two awesome nieces live with their family in Texas, plus she has a niece and three nephews with their family and her grandmother in the Philippines. Jeff has two brothers and one sister, with one niece and one nephew living in New York with their family. Jeff’s parents and two grandparents live in Texas. We also have lots of cousins with young children.
Our family members can’t wait for us to add a child to the family, especially our parents and our Texas siblings, who will get to spend plenty of time with our new addition. Jeff’s mom can’t wait to help play Santa Claus on Christmas morning, Grace’s mom is ready to pass down family recipes, and both of our dads are ready for a little one too. One of our nieces has been praying for her “new cousin” to join the family soon so they can play together. Whether it is big family gatherings with board games on Jeff’s side of the family or Filipino potlucks with karaoke on Grace’s side of the family, a child in our family will be loved from day one by so many people.
What Led Us To Adoption
We have always wanted children and decided a few years ago that it was time to grow our family. We often talked about having one child and adopting another. We’ve hoped and prayed about growing our family, and even though we’ve suffered through infertility and miscarriages, our hearts never stopped yearning for the addition of a new tiny person in our home. Several of our friends have adopted, and after seeing how happy their families are and how powerful adoption can be for everyone involved, we feel that now is the time to adopt. We’ve been ready for a child for so long, and we are ready to shower them with love.

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!
