Are Hoping to Adopt a Baby

dear expectant mother

Dear Expectant Mother,

We can’t even imagine what you’re going through or how you feel right now. This must be so scary and difficult for you. We started trying to have a baby back in 2015. After almost 2 years we started going to a specialist who determined Jacob is infertile. We took a few years break to mentally recharge and during that time we started talking about adoption. Adopting a baby would be the greatest gift we could ever receive. We are ready for any kind of adoption, open or closed, and can’t wait to get to know the mom that picks us, as she’ll always be a part of our family as well. I respect the choice that you are making about your future, and about your child’s future. We cannot fathom the depths of your emotions right now, but we want to be there for you every step of the way. For over a decade we have dreamed of becoming parents. It would be an honor to give your child a loving, safe, and fulfilling childhood filled with love, stability, and opportunity. Your child would be encouraged to be themselves, explore their interests, and always know how deeply they are loved. Please be kind to yourself during this time, it’s ok to be scared or angry or feel guilty, but this is probably the hardest experience of your life and you deserve grace. We look forward to meeting you to start our family!

Our Love Story

We met back in 2014. Katie had just turned 18 and Jacob had just turned 22, we’re both January babies. We met online a few weeks prior and had been talking back and forth constantly before we decided to meet up in person. We went on our first date and immediately clicked. After 2 weeks of dating Jacob told Katie he was going to marry her, and she told him he was insane. Fast forward to our 1st year anniversary where Jacob proposed to Katie, who of course said yes. Afterwards we went to eat at a diner and an old couple told us we reminded them of a younger them which has stuck with us all these years. We got married on our 2 year anniversary downtown and had a small reception at our house that we currently live in. We now have been together 12 years in total, and just celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary at Disney World, the same place we had our honeymoon.

Our Home & Neighborhood

We currently live in a newly developed neighborhood that was built in the last 15 years. We have an elementary school built into the neighborhood as well as a brand new high school right across the street from the entrance to the neighborhood. The elementary school is a 3 minute walk from our house. There are also 2 parks within walking distance from our house. We live in a very suburban neighborhood that has security patrolling at night as well. We have 3 dogs in our house, Midna, Cleo, and Raider. Raider is my childhood dog who’s currently 16 years old and still going! Cleo is 13, Midna is 11. All of them are extremely friendly and great with kids!

Our Family & Friends

We don’t have any close family members besides Katie’s mom and Jacob’s brother but we are surrounded by close friends! Katie’s best friend Rayva has been in her life for 20 years and is closer to her than a sister. Rayva lives 3 hours away but visits at least once a month. We have a huge friend group that we go play Pokémon with out of state at regionals and our house is a certain hub for our group of friends. We frequently host BBQ and game nights at our house. Most of our friends either have new babies or will be in the next few years so our future baby will have plenty of friends to grow up around. Katie’s mom has been waiting for a grandbaby for over 10 years and will heavily be in their life. Katie’s other childhood friend of over 16 years Marissa lives about 15 minutes from us and has Katie’s godson Alejo who is a little over a year old. We see our friends at least once a week!

Our Favorite Adventures

We travel frequently and have been all over the place! Our favorite vacation was in 2016 when we went to Aruba. We stayed in a 5 star resort and went snorkeling for the first time. Katie’s favorite thing to do on tropical vacations is now snorkeling and she plans on getting a scuba diving license soon. Our most frequently traveled places are Universal Studios and Disney World. We can’t wait to take our future children to Disney with us. Our business allows us to travel a lot to play the Pokémon trading card game with our friends, having gone to many cities like New Orleans, Atlanta, & San Diego. Our dream vacation is to go to Japan and Korea one day!
