Melissa & Joe
Are Hoping to Adopt a Baby
dear expectant mother
We will never be able to find the right words to truly express how grateful and lucky we are to even be considered by you during this significant time. If we are privileged to be chosen, we promise that your child will always know their story, understand where they come from, and sincerely know and feel how loved they have been from the very beginning of their life.
We know we will be able to provide a home that is filled with love and joy. We will read lots of stories together, play games, create our own artistic masterpieces, and go on lots of adventures. We will cherish the opportunity to love your child and focus on teaching them to be kind to others; to be brave, strong, and confident as they experience all the world has to offer; and to really see and appreciate the magic and beauty that surrounds us every day.
A child we are lucky to be able to raise will have amazing grandparents to spend time with, three happy cousins to play with, and a colorful, cozy, and warm home to grow up in. They will be loved, they will be supported, and they will be treated as the miracle that they truly are.
We greatly admire your strength and your courage. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for considering us to be adoptive parents for your child.
With love, Melissa and Joe
About Us
Our Home & Neighborhood
Our Family & Friends
We are both extremely close with our families. Our parents all live nearby, and we make it a priority to spend as much quality time with them as possible because we know how lucky we are to have them in our lives. Melissa is a big sister to three awesome women and is proud to be an aunt to her niece (four years old) and two nephews (eight and ten). Joe has one younger brother he is very close to and seven cousins who all grew up together. He is also lucky to have two amazing grandparents still with us.
We have weekly family dinners and yearly vacations together and celebrate all of our birthdays and holidays with lots of fun, food, and laughter. Whether we’re out and about at a family festival or baseball game, going on an after-dinner ice cream run, or just playing Uno or doing a puzzle together at home, we try to make every experience magical.
