She enjoys dancing, swimming, reading books, playing in the snow, going to parks, baking, pretend play, dressing up, arts and crafts, and learning. She loves all things Frozen, Paw Patrol, and Jesus.
N, our 2.5 year old, is our free-spirited, fearless middle child who loves to follow around her big sister and dote on her little brother. She enjoys singing, dancing, going to parks, trying new things, swinging, reading books, baking, and arts and crafts. She loves Paw Patrol, Bluey and Disney.
E is our 1 year old son who loves following his big sisters around, mimicking their behaviors. He wants to be involved in everything his sisters do. He loves eating, climbing, walking, exploring, throwing balls, riding in his toy car, evening walks, and seeing Christmas lights. He is a happy and smiley baby, who clearly shows his love for his entire family.

INTRO LETTER
We are thankful you are taking the time to read this letter and for considering us to raise your precious child. We believe strongly that life begins at conception and are committed to raising your child in a home full of love, laughter, adventure, grace, and faith.
Growing up on opposite coasts, one near the beach and one in the country, our lives intersected in our late 20s when we met online. We fell hard for each other and after four years of marriage, decided to begin our family. We are so blessed to have had three biological children of our own (5 year old daughter, 2 year old daughter, 1 year old son). Although we had discussed the possibility of adoption at the beginning of our marriage, after the birth of our son, we were convinced that we were done having children so [His name] got a vasectomy. Not long later, we felt God potentially pulling on our hearts to have another child, and we regretted our decision for [His name] to get a vasectomy. However, we pivoted and became open to other ways to expand our family. We prayed through the possibility of having another child and then the many ways to go about it. When we learned about embryo adoption, it felt right to both of us.
As devout followers of Jesus, we are firm believers that it is our responsibility to raise our children in His ways and send them into the world to serve others and spread the Gospel, through whatever career He calls them. The opportunity to give a life to someone who might not otherwise have that opportunity is priceless to us.
[His name] is the energetic and fun loving principal of our local elementary school. His career allows him to serve others and passionately ensure all students can learn at high levels. He cannot wait for all of our children to go to his school with him. Living in the community he serves allows us to be very connected to and in tune with its needs. He focuses on developing the whole child at his school and that greatly affects how we parent as well.
[Her name] is an Emergency Room physician, who has scaled back her work significantly since having children, only working a handful of shifts per month. This change has allowed her to be at home most of the month, raising and caring for our children, while still serving others in the medical field.
Given our careers, we both place a high emphasis on education and learning. We believe that intelligence and skills are gained through hard work, effort, and failure. We do our best to praise our kids for their effort and perseverance and show them the connection between their effort and success.
So what does life look like for us as a family of five? We can definitely say there are no dull moments! Our mornings often begin too early, with the sweet calling of “mama” or “dada” as we are still in bed or asleep. This usually turns into spontaneous snuggle time, which is one of our favorite activities, no matter the time of day. If it is a weekend, often the kids then help us make fun shaped pancakes or waffles with their favorite cookie cutters. Otherwise, we are off to races to get our oldest off to school.
Our days are full of fun and enriching activities. We love to do crafts and science experiments with our kids, providing opportunities for them to be creative, learn, and explore. They spend a lot of time playing in our large backyard, and in the summers, swimming and splashing in our pool. They relish any chance they get to go to a local park, the zoo, or the store to look around. In between, we may break out into a spontaneous dance party courtesy of Alexa, or make daddy into a human jungle gym. The laughter and joy that come from these moments is priceless. We definitely pack things in and get the most out of every day! In the evenings, we try to take a family walk after dinner. In the winter, the kids love admiring the Christmas lights on the various walking routes we have come up with over the years.
Speaking of Christmas, we are Christmas fanatics and instill a love of Christmas in our children from an early age, with an emphasis on the real reason for the season. We love baking all kinds of cookies and then giving them to neighbors and friends, while of course enjoying plenty for ourselves. We have a fun Christmas Advent tradition of hiding a shepherd stuffed animal each day, who is on the search for his lost sheep. After 25 days he finds Jesus, but along the way the kids learn and discover all kinds of things about Jesus and His love for us through daily activities and readings. Even at their young ages, we take them shopping at the Dollar Tree to buy a special, thoughtful gift to each member of the family that they wrap and give out Christmas morning. We love finding the best neighborhood lights around the city/town to visit. Once the kids are in bed, we the parents can be found on the couch enjoying a Christmas movie, especially a good ole Hallmark movie! Matching Christmas PJs are a must every year for Christmas morning. We always make sure that when opening gifts, we take turns and open one gift at a time. Although it takes way longer to open the gifts, it allows everyone to focus their attention on the giver and recipient. Stockings are saved for after the big Christmas meal and something the kids always look forward to at the end of the day.
Although Christmas is so rich with traditions, both new and old, we love celebrating all holidays throughout the year and do our best to involve the children in them. Traditions create special memories that we hope our children hold onto for a long time, from “cascarones” at Easter to apple picking, pumpkin patches, and pumpkin carving in the fall.
We are always seeking new places to visit, both locally, and regionally. Our children LOVE the weekend trips we take to various nearby towns, cities, etc. As they get older, we cannot wait to take them on trips further away including a much anticipated trip to our beloved Disney World! We also look forward to more camping and hiking as they grow, since we love to be outdoors all year long, no matter the temperature.
We are very blessed to be able to provide so many enriching opportunities for our children, but in the process try to teach them various ways to give back, whether it is through a small kind act or a grand gesture. Jesus calls us to serve others and we aspire to raise them in that way. We believe that there is no greater joy than to know that our children are walking in the Truth and it is our responsibility to equip and teach them as they grow toward adulthood.
We couldn’t take on this massive responsibility of raising our children without the love and support of our amazing families. We are blessed to have all four of our parents actively involved in our children’s lives. They cherish and adore them all and we enjoy seeing the special and unique bond every child is developing with each of their four grandparents. On the few days per month [Her name] has to work on a weekday, her parents come to our home to lovingly care for them. Our children have two “fun-cles” who visit when they can and do such a wonderful job engaging with and loving on our children. Finally, [His name] sister and her husband have five children close in age to ours, and live about a day’s drive away. The cousins adore each other and each time they get together they have more and more fun! We are a close knit family, with both sets of grandparents being close to each other and even the uncles and aunts having a relationship with the opposite in-laws.
We promise to love your child fiercely and unconditionally, while raising them in a house full of joy, laughter, adventure, and grace. Thank you again for taking the time to learn more about our special family.
REFERENCE LETTER 1
We are the parents of [His name] and so have known him for 39 years. [Her name] is his wife, our daughter in law, and we have known her for 10 years. Let us begin with [His name] family history.
We have four children, of whom [His name] is our third. Our oldest had autism and developmental delays. He left this earth suddenly at age 24 and is deeply missed. [His name] sister is 41 and is raising five children ages 11, 9, 7, 5, 3. [His name] and [her name] children, ages 5, 3 and 1 and his sister’s children love each other very much and love any cousin time they can get together! [His name] youngest brother is 37 and is married.
Family has been an extremely high value as we have raised our children, and they have carried
that high value into their own marriages. Family is our greatest treasure! We are all a family of
deep faith and focus on teaching our children Jesus’ Greatest Commandment: to love God and love people, both in word and in deed. [His name] and his siblings especially loved and helped care for their disabled brother, in the midst of all the challenges, joys and heartache. [His name], in particular, invested his heart and time in helping to care for D, as they had a special bond. Our children would tell you that having D in our lives has “shaped” who we are today, which is why I mention this part of our history.
[His name] special love for and connection with children was evident at a young age. He helped lead the younger children in a Bible club and was a highly esteemed babysitter. This is all reflected in his ultimate career choice of education. He has been a teacher and a principal, responsible for hundreds of students and staff, for 16 years. He is thoughtful, responsible, dependable, capable, intelligent, relational, outgoing, kind, decisive and accomplished. He is also a man of integrity and, of course, fun! This is not only evident in the educational context, but with his wife and children as well. He shares much of the care of their children with his wife, who is a doctor. He prepares many of the meals and helps the children with dressing, eating, bathing and overall bedtime routine. Reading books, dancing, singing, playing together, playing educational games and giving lots of hugs are activities the whole family enjoy. His daughters especially love to bake and cook with their daddy.
The family loves the outdoors and they enjoy swimming in their backyard pool, taking daily walks around the neighborhood, going to playgrounds and parks, frequenting the local zoo and hiking. Traveling is a favorite adventure as well, as they will often take weekend trips to areas where they can get away and enjoy the outdoor activities available. Brother, E, is now mobile and loves being involved in exploring his world, wrestling and playing games with his sisters, as well as enduring lots of hugs and kisses from them. There is a lot of sibling love! This family knows how to have fun! Both parents value the spiritual training of their children and attend church regularly, as well as teach them about faith in daily life. The children also have a special and rich culture of being white and Hispanic. They are learning English and Spanish and an appreciation of both cultures. They hear and are encouraged to speak both languages on a daily basis, as well as through songs and reading stories.
We love our son and are quite proud of the man he has become. We are honored and grateful to be his parents and the grandparents of his children. And we would welcome with loving arms any child they would adopt!
[Her name], his wife, is his perfect match! She is kind, gentle, thoughtful, intelligent, nurturing,
tenacious, wise and also a hard-working and accomplished doctor of emergency medicine. She and [His name] work as a team in their marriage and in raising their children and are both highly involved in caring for and educating their children. [Her name] is especially artistic and not only has created a welcoming home, but is quick to invest time in doing arts and crafts with her children, which they love! She highly values every minute she can get with her family. We feel personally blessed to have this sweet woman as our daughter in law and we love her very much! [Her name] parents and brother share her faith and high value of family. They live part of each month in [His name] and [Her name] city in order to help care for their children, which is a great blessing to the entire family. Our son couldn’t have had more caring and generous in laws. We have a wonderful relationship with them as well!
As we watch this family live life together, we see a sense in the children that they know they are loved, safe and secure, despite the family's imperfections and normal day to day challenges. We know [His name] and [Her name] have had a heart to one day adopt and can assure any family their child will be well loved and cared for by them and their entire family!

REFERENCE LETTER 2
To Whom it May Concern,
We are writing to express our unequivocal support of [His name] and [Her name] as adoptive parents.
As [His name] older sister, I have known him his entire life. We grew up in a family with four children born quite close in age. We were raised to love and cherish family and, to this day, I still consider him to be one of my closest friends. We met both [Her name] and her immediate family for the first time in 2013. They were so kind and our time together was fun and filled with laughter. [Her name] and her family are caring and close-knit. We were thrilled when she and [His name] married a year later.
[His name] works in the education field as the principal of a Pre-K-5 school. [Her name] works part-time in the medical field as a physician in the ER. They both excel in their chosen professions and have opted to work with people because they care deeply for others. Hard work, dedication, persistence, and compassion compel them. And these qualities extend beyond the walls of their workplaces.
As former educators, we have known a lot of parents and [His name] and [Her name] are some of the most intentional ones we have seen. They truly shine in their efforts to provide for their three children physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. I believe without a shadow of a doubt that their kids feel loved and safe. They are valued and heard. They are being taught to love God and love people and I have seen the fruit of that in their words and actions.
As a couple, we believe [His name] and [Her name] make a great team. They love and sacrifice for one another and their marriage is a solid one. They are incredibly generous, sweetly humble, creative and fun, and absolutely adore their kids. As a family, they are and will be a force to impact both the community around them and the world. Their oldest daughter, S (age 5), is sweet-spirited, thoughtful, smart, and kind. N (age 3) is blossoming in personality and is an adoring big sister. E (age 1) is a happy and wonderful boy. Any child would be blessed to be welcomed by such a loving family.
We, ourselves, have five young children who love their aunt, uncle, and cousins dearly. We would welcome another child with open arms and open hearts. There is no shortage of extended family to love and encourage [His name] and [Her name] in their choice to adopt. [His name] and [Her name] would be dynamic adoptive parents and we wholeheartedly support them in their decision to grow their family in this way.

REFERENCE LETTER 3
To whom it may concern,
I have known [Her name] for 13 years and [His name] for 10 years. I first met [Her name] in
medical school, she was my roommate for the first 2 years of school. I met [His name] when [Her name] and him started dating and subsequently married soon after. I was proud to support both of
them as a bridesmaid in their wedding. I have remained close to [His name] and [Her name] throughout the years and value our friendship immensely.
I can’t imagine better parents than [His name] and [Her name]. [Her name] is an ER physician who works part time. [Her name] medical knowledge to care for and protect a child is a valued trait. Unlike other physicians, ER physicians do shift work and working part time allows [Her name] to be both a working mom, but also dedicated to spending time with her children. Likewise, [His name] is a school principal, which allows them to bring their children up with an emphasis on education.
Although I believe their career choices are important in how they bring up their children, it
doesn’t really explain their true nature as parents. [Her name] is a caring, nurturing person who truly
puts the needs of others, especially her children, before her own. [His name] is methodical, reliable,
and extremely organized, which has been a great asset to managing a house with 3 children
while working full-time. Both [His name] and [Her name] have the ability to gently discipline their children in a way that allows their children to develop social norms and necessary structure. Their
children are well behaved, but they are still allowed to be kids- running, playing, jumping,
laughing, etc. Their 3 children are genuinely happy and play well with other children, which
includes my own.
[His name] and [Her name] are both God fearing disciples of Christ. They raise their children to follow the Lord, teaching them to love their neighbors. Family meals start with a prayer to keep in
perspective how blessed they truly are to have each other and to give thanks to the Lord. I feel
grateful to call [His name] and [Her name] my brother and sister in Christ.
As a family medicine physician, I frequently fill out paperwork for adoption indicating if a patient
is mental and physically fit to be adoptive or foster parents. Although I am not the primary care
physician for either [His name] or [Her name], I can say without a doubt that both are mentally and
physically fit to love, nurture, and raise a happy, healthy, well educated child as I have 3
examples of this already with their children.
Please consider my good friends, [His name] and [Her name], as potential parents for your child. I know that you can rest assured that your child will be loved and cared for in every way.
Thank you for your time and may God bless you and guide you,
T R
