dear expectant mother
Dear Loving Mother,
Thank you for getting to know us and our family. We can’t express enough how grateful we are that you are considering an adoption plan and read our profile. We know this has to be an extremely difficult decision and time for you. However, rest assured, we will be there for you every step of the way.
For your own comfort, we would like you to know we’ll support any level of contact you would like to have with your child. We promise to love and support this child with every ounce of our being. We will provide a loving environment and will make sure this child will have every opportunity to succeed in life. Thanks again for your selfless courage, which we admire so much.
About Us
We are Tommy and Michelle! We met in 2011 at a mutual friend’s show, and there was an immediate connection. Michelle is hardworking, patient, and kind. Tommy is very driven, honest, and goofy. We got married in 2014. Tommy is an electrician and currently is a project manager. Michelle has an entrepreneurial spirit and is currently focusing on her crochet business. Since Michelle works from home, this gives her a lot of free time to spend with family and friends while Tommy works from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. and has plenty of time to spend with family and friends on evenings and weekends. We like to consider ourselves a fun couple and would like to share our joy and happiness with our growing family. Our favorite activities include hiking, golfing, camping, barbecuing with family and friends, and watching hockey, football, and the occasional movie.
Our Home & Pets
We live in a cozy, two-bedroom, two-bath brick house. A lot of the work done to the house has been done by us. These projects include the deck, patio, bathroom, and currently starting to finish our basement. Our house is surrounded by caring families, and our immediate family lives close by. We currently have three pets, two dogs and one cat. Our first dog is Marley, a German Rottweiler who is very affectionate. Next we have Kratos, who is a mixed breed and loves to snuggle. Last but not least, we have Xavier, our cat. He loves to rub against Tommy’s beard and has a tendency to chew on plants. Our home may not be big, but it is full of love and happiness.
Our Extended Family
We are both very lucky to have our families live close by. They are our biggest support system on our journey of starting a family. We are close with both sides of our family.
Tommy’s side of the family loves to barbecue and are huge sports enthusiasts. He has two brothers who live close by. One brother is married with two daughters. The other is also married; he has a son and a daughter from previous relationships, and his wife and he are expecting a baby girl. We are very close and practically do everything together. All of us love fishing, camping, golfing, and anything involving outdoor activities.
Now on to Michelle’s side of the family. We love getting together for family dinners and game nights. We all still live close to where we grew up. She has an older brother and a younger sister. Her brother and his wife have a little boy with another boy on the way. Her sister is a bit younger and still lives at home. She just got her master’s degree in science of psychology with a specialty in child behavioral therapy.
What Led Us To Adoption
From the time we got married, we knew we wanted a family. Soon after that, we came to realize Michelle had some fertility issues. We tried to conceive through IVF, but sadly, after a few glimmers of hope, none of the pregnancies were successful. We now feel there is a new plan set for us, and there is a baby out there destined to be a part of our loving family. Adoption has been a huge part of both of our families. Michelle’s father was adopted at birth as well as a number of Tommy’s cousins (both through foster care and at birth).

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!
