dear expectant mother
We are so grateful that you are considering adoption as an option for your child. We would be honored if you were to select us to care for your precious child. We would provide a lifetime of love and support for your child, and we would give your child every opportunity to realize their fullest potential. We would guide your child and teach them everything we have come to know from our experiences traveling the world and living the unique lives we have had the chance to live, and we would encourage your child to seek their own path and follow their dreams.
We would share with them our family traditions, including traveling to various locations around the U.S. and the world for vacation, creating a home filled with unique original works of art, and creating lasting memories by engaging in experiences with friends and family—experiences such as making cookies from scratch, frosting them for the holidays, and giving them away to our loved ones and other experiences such as attending plays at the children’s theater or going to the zoo.
We cannot wait to share all the blessings that have been bestowed upon us with your child and to welcome them into our lives. Thank you for being so courageous. You are an amazing example of selflessness and humility. You are our hero.
About Us
Brett is a private corporate pilot for an international company. Mindy works for a Fortune 100 company as a corporate trainer. We are an extremely loving couple who found in each other our forever homes. We are an excellent balance of love, compassion, adventure, and stability. We support each other and encourage each other to live life to its fullest potential. We have traveled the world together and have made a beautiful home where we enjoy coming together with family and friends. We spend time together cooking, going out to experience live music and theater events, and navigating the park system in the city we live in. We are blessed to have in each other a best friend. We laugh together. We cry together. We grow together, and we live our best lives together.
Our Home & Pets
We live in a three-bedroom, one-story home. We have a large backyard with shade trees perfect for playing beneath. We also have a hammock and fire pit for relaxing. We have a designated room for the nursery filled with toys, some educational to assist with development and others for pure fun. We have two adorable, loving mini-schnauzers named Rumi and Luna. Our home is in a gated community that has its own park with a playground. We have access to a private pool and hot tub. Our community has a Six Flags, SeaWorld, zoo, and many public parks. In addition, our city has a symphony, a ballet company, a children’s theater, and numerous event centers for concerts, plays, and live music.
Our Extended Family
We come from exceptionally loving families. Brett’s parents have been married 49 years, and Mindy’s parents have been married 57 years. Brett is the middle child with two siblings, a sister who is older and a brother who is younger. Mindy is the youngest of seven children, with two brothers and four sisters. We see our families any chance we get to enjoy each other’s company. Some of our siblings live in the same area as us, but others live in other parts of the country, which makes for fun travels to visit nieces and nephews.
We enjoy celebrating St. Patrick’s Day and the Fourth of July with parades. Halloween is one of our favorite holidays. We love to think up fun costumes, decorate the house, and give out candy to the neighborhood children. Thanksgiving is a time when both our families get together. We have many Christmas traditions, including putting up a tree and a train set and making cookies and pies. We start with St. Nicholas’ Day on December 6 and celebrate all the way through to Three Kings’ Day on January 6. We open one gift on Christmas Eve, and we have a big dinner on Christmas Day.
What Led Us To Adoption
We tried to have biological children, but after seeing a fertility specialist we were informed that having biological children would not be possible. After that, we opened our hearts and fostered an infant through the foster care system. He was with us from birth to eight months old, at which time a family member came forward and the child transitioned to his aunt. We decided we did not want to foster again but would prefer to adopt a child.

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!
