dear expectant mother
We want you to know we admire your courage and bravery. It’s hard to imagine what you must be going through, but we are glad you are considering adoption. We’re honored and thankful to have you consider us to raise your beautiful, precious child. It takes a huge heart to trust someone else with both the tremendous responsibility and gracious gift of parenthood.
Without your help and generosity, our dream of hearing the laughter of a child through our home or the little steps running around just couldn’t happen. If we are chosen, we will give your baby all that we are, we’ll support them through every decision they make, we’ll be by their side every day, and we’ll guide them to become an exceptional person, just like you had hoped. We will raise your child in a loving environment and will provide for their every need so they can become whoever or whatever they dream of.
We recognize your role in this and cannot imagine how difficult of a decision this must be. We want you to know we are forever grateful for you considering us, no matter your choice. You are an extraordinarily strong woman with a beautiful heart and unimaginable strength. We will make sure that is passed on and that you are recognized as the source of that beautiful trait. We’re good people and really need a break, just like you do. Thank you again for considering us for the honor.
About Us
We are Scott and Sandi. Sandi is a 911 dispatcher, and Scott is the design studio director at an internationally renowned architectural firm. We met in 2016 while Sandi was visiting friends. After four months of dating, we knew we were meant to be together and started planning a wedding. We were married on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. We knew all along we had complementary styles and traits that made us fit together just right. Scott has an outgoing and positive personality, and Sandi is quieter and easygoing. We love to grill by the pool while we swim and sunbathe, go on drives to the beach, or walk our dog together in our neighborhood. Family is especially important to us; we love visiting family and friends and having them over for the weekend. We love cooking together, make each other laugh, and strive to make the other feel cherished, loved, and appreciated.
Our Home & Pets
We live in Florida in a beautifully furnished two-story home with four bedrooms, two and a half baths, and a cathedral-style ceiling so it feels open and airy. There is a beautiful lanai with a swimming pool and a beautiful, landscaped yard in a quiet neighborhood. The neighborhood is a clean, friendly environment, perfect for raising a family. We imagine beautiful days together at home, swimming lessons, learning to ride a bike, helping with homework, learning about nature, trips to the beach, camping, and other family activities. We look forward to the little one building a beautiful relationship with our pupper, Mikey. He’s a chihuahua/pug mix and loves to sunbathe, go for walks, and snuggle.
Our Extended Family
Our families have wonderful traditions. We like to travel, love holidays with family, always cook together, and always celebrate birthdays.
We like to get out of town on customary holidays to both our home cities, but we also like to take one or two longer family trips as well. We plan on trips to the Midwest, where Scott grew up, to spend quality time with his mom and extended family. We also plan on trips to Sandi’s hometown to see her many uncles, aunts, and cousins. As if that’s not enough traveling, we're also planning a trip to Europe to see Scott’s brother and sister in-law and their children. For shorter weekends, we like to either go see or host Sandi’s sister and her husband and their two daughters, who live about three hours away. It’s always fun to spend time with them.
Birthdays are extremely important to us. We make birthday cakes from scratch with candles, open presents, and the whole production. Thanksgiving is very special to us too. We cook together, spend quality time together, and break the wishbone. At Christmastime, we decorate the tree and the house inside and out. We’re extremely excited to share our traditions and family and hope to do so soon.
What Led Us To Adoption
Before we met, we both knew we wanted to be parents. Sandi has always wanted a family. Throughout Scott’s life, he and his family dreamed of the day he would become a father. After we got married, we started planning on children. We found out we were going to have a challenge naturally, and it could result in failed pregnancies. We couldn’t let that happen, so adoption became really the only way God was going to fulfill His promise to us. It was never going to come easily for us, but that was okay. We both have so much love in our hearts to give and want to bring a child into a loving, caring home.

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!
