dear expectant mother

Dear Expectant Mother,

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Thank you for being courageous and strong in the face of the incredibly difficult decision you are facing. It’s difficult to even put into words the gift you would be giving us, but we will try.

Should you choose us, your baby will be surrounded by love, warmth, and support. He or she will be raised with adoring siblings, doting aunts and uncles, close-knit cousins, and loving, grateful adoptive parents. We promise you there will be endless love, lots of laughter, and hearts full of joy.

Please know that there will never be a day that we won’t thank you, God, and the universe. There will never be a day that your baby won’t feel loved and cherished. We can promise you your baby will be safe, educated, protected, provided for, and, most importantly, loved in a home founded on faith.

It’s an honor to be considered to be the adoptive parents of your baby. We are so very grateful to you.

Love, Sam & Brant

About Us

We are Brant and Samantha! We have two children, Teddi (5) and Ezra (3), two dogs, three chickens, and lots of friends, family, and love. Sam works in communications, and Brant is a software developer. We love being outside, spending weekends swimming in our pool, and playing in the backyard. Our nine-year marriage started with a destination wedding on the beach in the Dominican Republic. Brant is a fantastic father, and Sam loves motherhood and is grateful for her family. Our hearts have been calling for a new addition to our family. Teddi is smart and caring, and Ezra is sweet and fun. Both will adore a new baby. Our faith is extremely important to us, and it’s through God that we have our blessings. We balance staying busy with cozy family nights, homemade dinners, and staying in jammies for as long as possible on Saturdays. 😊

Our Home & Neighborhood

We love where we live. We live in a city full of cultural attractions and amazing parks, and it is incredibly family friendly. Locals call it a big city with a hometown feel, and it’s true! As mentioned above, we have two dogs—the sweetest, most tolerant dogs in the world. Buddy and Jovie are wonderful with kids and even more so with babies. Teddi attends a lovely Catholic school with the most incredible community. The parents, staff, and kids are just fantastic. Ezra‘s daycare is unlike any other daycare—the executive director and assistant director have been there for almost 30 years! They’ve seen generations grow up there, and we genuinely feel like our children are loved and cared for in the best way.

Our Family & Friends

We have a wonderful support system! We have an extended family full of aunties, uncles, cousins, godmothers, godfathers, and friends. Fun fact: Sam’s sister lives in our neighborhood (an eight-minute walk!) with her husband, nine-year-old son, and one-year-old baby! As you can imagine, we are very close, and our kids love their cousins! They are so excited we are embarking on this journey. We also love spending time together with our immediate family. We love Friday movie nights with pizza, popcorn, and just us. We make cozy fires and snuggle. We love going to our country property, and there’s nothing but relaxing, quality time together.

We’ve been doing annual summer beach trips since Teddi was a baby and can’t wait to bring the newest member of our family along.

Some of our other favorite traditions include a crawfish boil every year for Brant’s birthday and an annual pumpkin carving party around Halloween; we invite friends and family, and the kids have a blast. Christmas is extra special in our home. We go all out on decorations, and every year we go out and choose a real Christmas tree. We take family pictures and send out Christmas cards. We also do the Elf on the Shelf, which is named Alison Snow. 😊

What Led Us To Adoption

I think our adoption journey is unique in that we knew this is where our paths would ultimately lead us, and we couldn’t be more excited. Like many others, we experienced devastating infertility for years, with multiple miscarriages. It’s hard to describe the depths of the sadness and despair. As we accepted what God was giving us, we pursued foster care. We were licensed and waiting on our first placement when we found out we were pregnant with Teddi, in fact, three months pregnant! We were blessed with our son during the pandemic and always knew we were meant to have another baby. Adoption is where we always knew we would find ourselves, and we are so grateful, excited, and humbled to be considered.
