Matthew & Michael

Are Hoping to Adopt a Baby

dear expectant mother

There are no words to adequately describe the gratitude we feel knowing you are reading our story. While we have never met, we recognize that you are facing a monumental decision with immense bravery and compassion. It is natural to feel nervous—we certainly do, too—but we hope that by sharing our hearts, we can navigate those feelings with honesty and empathy.

We cannot promise perfection, but we can promise to be wholeheartedly committed to your child. We will stand by them through every hardship, celebrate every joy, and offer a lifetime of unwavering support, stability, and unconditional love. Our friends and family know our home is "meant to be lived in," and our door is always open. That same invitation extends to you. We view adoption as a journey we take together, and we are eager to work as a team to define the role you want to play.

We would be profoundly honored and grateful if you chose us to be fathers. We are so excited for the future and will strive every day to be the parents you envision for your child. With every good wish we have, we hope you find peace and ease in your decision, knowing you are deeply respected and admired.

About Us

Howdy! Michael and Matthew here. Laughter is the core of our relationship; we’ve never felt more loved or safe than when we are making each other chuckle. As a teacher and a natural extrovert, Michael is our “social butterfly”—he brings the energy and keeps our lives full of connection. Matthew spends his days immersed in spreadsheets, which serves as the perfect, quiet incubation period for the dry zingers he drops at a moment’s notice that make us laugh until we cry. Whether we are paddleboarding on the lake or on a road trip to a new destination, our favorite moments are the unfiltered, everyday ones spent simply living. We’ve built our foundation on daily check-ins and the joy of sharing our day’s stories. We are a balanced blend of outgoing spirit and quiet wit, always finding the humor and the heart in the life we’ve built together.

Our Home & Neighborhood

Our home in the Pennsylvania suburbs is much more than a house; it’s a place defined by warmth, laughter, and hospitality. On any given summer evening, you’ll find us watching the sunset after a swim or gathered around the fire pit as the stars come out. With most of our family within easy driving distance, our doors are always open for impromptu dinners and game nights. Our Goldendoodles, Teddy and Lainey, love walking the nearby trails, while our cats—Macey and Josie—add plenty of “purr-sonality” to our daily routines. Whether we are tending to our garden boxes or hosting our big village of family and friends, our life is built on the simple, beautiful joy of being together.

Our Family & Friends

For us, family is a choice we make every day—to stay a little longer, to laugh a little louder, and to share in the simple joy of being together. Matthew lives this out as the “fun uncle,” always ready for dance parties or tidal waves in the pool. He is incredibly close with his mom and his sisters and dad all live locally. Matthew loves being the host, especially at Thanksgiving where he serves favorites like his Mexican street corn and twice-baked potatoes.

Michael is the creative builder in our home. Whether he’s perfecting a new bake in the kitchen or working on a LEGO set his nephew can probably build faster, he loves creating something from scratch. He remains close to his mom through their shared love of antiques and treasures time with his twin brothers. Together, we have eight nieces and nephews who keep us on our toes, especially when we get everyone together for croquet at our 4th of July shindig.

Our mighty village also extends to our closest friends, who have become the family we chose. We love being "uncles" to their children and sharing in their everyday lives. This village is our greatest strength, and we are so ready to bring a child home to a place where they will always belong.

What Led Us To Adoption

Falling in love and building a life together revealed our true calling: becoming fathers. For years, we have cherished our roles as the fun-loving uncles to our eight nieces and nephews, an experience that sparked a deeper longing to raise children of our own. After witnessing the beautiful reality of adoption firsthand through close friends, we knew our hearts were leading us down this exact path. We are so fortunate to be surrounded by an incredible village of family and friends who are already eager to welcome a new member with open arms. Whether it is a quiet story on the couch or a weekend adventure outdoors, our child will always be enveloped in laughter and a community where they are deeply loved and truly belong.
