dear expectant mother
Dear Expectant Mother,
We want you to know you have been on our minds and hearts constantly. We may not know you yet, but there are some things we do know about you. For one, you are brave, compassionate, and strong. You are doing what it takes to give your baby the best life possible. We know this process is not an easy one.
If you bless us by making us parents again, we will love your baby with all our hearts, and we will make them the center of our world. We look forward to being there on their best and worst days with compassion and love. We look forward to loving and accepting whoever they grow up to be. They will always have our undying love and support, no matter what! We would love to make you a part of our family if this is something you want. The more people who love a child, the better!
We promise to give them all the love in the world and all the opportunities, from education to travel and experiences, that we can provide, whether private schools or yearly trips to Disney, ski trips, cabin trips, boating, and trips to the ocean each year. Travel is important as you can learn so much more from experiences. We promise to give your child a home full of love and a world full of adventure and happiness.
Thank you for considering us. We truly are grateful.
Love,
Tom and Kennedy
About Us
Kennedy is kind-hearted, loving, bubbly, and silly. Tom is quick-witted, funny, and very outgoing. Tom is an Orthodontist . Kennedy is a doctor of behavioral health working with children with special needs. She is also a published children’s author. She works part-time, with all of her work being done from home, and she looks forward to being home with the children. We both come from families that value education, and we will be providing our children with private education, just as we had. We find happiness in travel and learning new things because we know experience is far more valuable than any books can teach. Spending time with friends and family and playing with our dog, Maizey, is important to us. We have a toddler daughter who has brought so much joy into our house, and we cannot wait to bring another child into our loving home because children bring a joy that nothing else can.
Our Home & Neighborhood
Home is a beautiful brick home in a family-oriented subdivision, with four bedrooms, a theater area in the finished basement, and a pool where we love to host our friends’ children to play (safely fenced of course). We enjoy picnics by the pool often. Our charming downtown contains several great restaurants, coffee shops, an ice cream parlor, and bakeries. This town is family centered. There are lots of kids activities, and family nights occupy summer. Our daughter attends many children’s activities in the community, including music, dance, soccer, and swim. There are lots of families walking their dogs and riding bikes downtown together. Maizey is our three-year-old shih-tzu/poodle mix. She’s great with children and super cuddly! We also have a very friendly and loving cat named Frankie.
Our Family & Friends
Kennedy’s parents have been married for 29 years, and her sister is 21. They love going to Disney World several times a year and are annual passholders. They celebrate NYE with a seafood dinner and board game night. We also spend Christmas Eve with this side of the family. In her parents’ subdivision, they have a yearly neighborhood event where all the neighbors gather to do a candle walk and sing Christmas carols. We spend the night at Grammy and Papa’s and wake up in the morning to Santa having come! Papa makes a large breakfast, and the great-grandparents also stay over to celebrate Christmas the next day with the extended family, whom we are very close to. We also make a birthday cake each year for Jesus and light candles, letting the young cousins blow out the candles for Him. Aunt Sophie, Kennedy’s sister lives 15 minutes away while at college and comes over weekly for dinner.
Tom’s parents have been married for 31 years, and his brother will be 29. They enjoy going to Colorado to ski at their condo, going to South Carolina to our vacation home right on the ocean, spending a week in the Caribbean, going on the family sailboat with Papou (Greek for Grandpa) as well as the cabin up north, and watching sports together.
What Led Us To Adoption
Kennedy is unable to have any more biological children. We care more about our child being happy and healthy than having genetic ties. We also realize that love makes a family, not necessarily biology. Kennedy’s younger sister as well as her best friend were both adopted and have proven to be some of our best blessings. Adoption is very close to our hearts, and we are honored to go on this journey. We want our nearly two-year-old daughter to have a sibling close in age.

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!
