dear expectant mother
First of all, we love you already, not only because you’re considering allowing us to raise your child but because we are, by nature, people who love everyone. We’re Christians. We have so much love to give, not only to your baby but also to you, and we will give you however much or little space you need. We know you’re facing a difficult situation, and we admire your strength and courage.
One thing we have to offer your baby is a stable, happy home with two parents who are madly in love with one another. We will make this child a priority and make sure all his or her physical, spiritual, and emotional needs are met, and we will incorporate love, laughter, and music into every day of your child’s life. If he or she decides to do sports or ballet or any other activity, we will be there for every game and performance. Our extended family will cherish the child as well, and I have no doubt both of our mothers will want to babysit on every occasion!
In addition, our sweet boys, Troy and Roman, will love and protect this child. We have no doubt they will have so much fun playing with and growing up alongside him or her.
Just know that we appreciate your consideration and would love to get to know you. Thank you for taking the time to get to know us.
Love,
Linda and Jackson

About Us
We have been married nine years this November, and we love each other more every day! We met online. Linda lived in Oklahoma, and Jackson lived in Arkansas. We both knew right away we were meant to be together. Our wedding was only four months after we met because we just couldn’t stand being apart! Jackson soon became a licensed funeral director so he could help with our family business. (Linda’s dad owns a chain of local funeral homes that have been in the family since 1932.) We live in Oklahoma now, and we both work for the company, Jackson as a director and Linda in accounting. We believe dealing with the reality of death on a daily basis gives us a deeper appreciation for life and health. We have two precious sons we consider our greatest blessings: Troy (almost three years old) and Roman (a year old).
Our Home & Pets
We recently moved into the two-story house of our dreams in a beautiful midtown neighborhood in a safe area of our city. It has four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a lovely backyard with a porch. We live in a great school district and are minutes away from a large mall, numerous restaurants, and one of the best aquariums in the country. We also have a large zoo nearby, and we have family passes to both the aquarium and the zoo. Though we don’t currently have any pets, we’re open to having them someday.
Our Extended Family
We are blessed to have extremely loving, supportive parents! They love their grandchildren with all their hearts and will adore any additional family members just as much. Linda’s parents and Jackson’s mom all live within 20 minutes of us. They are all eager babysitters! Jackson’s dad and stepmom still live in Arkansas, but we love getting together with them and Jackson’s siblings (three of them, who also live in Arkansas) every Christmas and Thanksgiving. Linda has one brother, who we’re really close with and who also lives here in Oklahoma, and he has a five-year-old son. Linda’s half-sister also recently moved here.
Both sides of our family have all kinds of fun traditions we’ll enjoy passing along to our children! We love to take road trips with both sets of our parents to a town in Missouri that has a theme park, shows, and lots of fun places to eat. It’s our way of meeting in the middle! We also love going to the zoo and the aquarium in town with Linda’s extended family.
What Led Us To Adoption
Adoption is something we’ve always considered, and lately we’ve felt increasingly led to pursue it. We’ve always wanted to have a large family, but we firmly decided adopting was for us after countless failed fertility treatments and three heartbreaking miscarriages. We believe all that has only made us stronger in our love for each other and our faith in God, and now that we have two biological sons, we appreciate them all the more for the struggle we went through to have them. They’re the sweetest boys and would be incredible big brothers. We have so much love for each other, for our current and possible future children, and for our friends and family. We have plenty of room in our hearts and our home.

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!
