Dear Perspective Donor Family,

 

My name is [Her name] and I am deeply moved by your generosity and selflessness in considering this profound gift, which could bring the joy of another child into our lives. I’d like to share a bit about our family, our values, and why this opportunity means so much to us, in hopes that you’ll feel a connection to our story.

 

My longing for another child comes from the immense love and fulfillment I find in motherhood. Being a mother has been the greatest privilege of my life, shaping me in ways I never imagined. Everyday moments with my daughter fill me with purpose, whether it’s reading bedtime stories, or taking her to Montessori school each morning. My daughter has been wanting a sibling, and I have been yearning to nurture another child, to share guidance, and warmth, and to see our family grow in faith and togetherness. I believe every child is a blessing, a unique soul entrusted to us, and I feel called to open my heart to one more.

 

I strive to be a good mother by creating a home that is both a sanctuary and a place of growth. I try to be patient, attentive, and committed to fostering my child’s individuality while guiding her with strong values. I prioritize her emotional and spiritual wellbeing by encouraging her to be kind, curious, and resilient. I’d bring that same devotion to another child.

 

Our Catholic faith is the cornerstone of our family. We attend Mass regularly at our local parish, where we’re active and volunteer in both our church and community, participating in things like faith formation and OCIA. I strive to live out my faith through compassion, humility, and service, teaching my daughter to love God and all others. We pray together daily, with grace before meals and our nightly prayers. I find strength in the Church’s teachings, and use it to guide my parenting. My faith inspires me to create a home where [Daughter's name] will grow up knowing she is loved by God and our family.

 

Life in this beautiful place is a gift we cherish. Our home is surrounded by sparkling lakes, towering pines, and the kind of peace that only nature can offer. We are very blessed to have my parents, cousins, aunties here. We spend our summers swimming and paddle boarding in the lake most days, the winter is a wonderland full of fun and adventure. Our community is tight-knit, most of our family all live in the same neighborhood, my daughter thrives in this wholesome, small town, safe environment. It’s a place where kids can run free in the backyard, build snow forts, catch frogs and fireflies and will grow up learning the value of hard work. My mother and I sometimes joke that we feel like we live in a hallmark movie.

 

Travel is another passion that brings our family closer. We love packing up for a quick road trip or heading to explore new adventures like Alaska, Hawaii, Disney or a cruise somewhere when our winter gets a bit too long. I think it’s important for children to embrace new experiences and appreciate different cultures. We have made so many wonderful memories on some of these trips with my daughter and family. A new child would join us on these journeys, wrapped in the love and laughter.

 

Above all, our entire family is built on strong values..love, respect, and unity. We believe in standing by each other through life’s joys and challenges.

 

Thank you for considering us as you make this deeply personal decision. We are profoundly grateful for your kindness and the possibility of growing our family through your gift. If you feel comfortable, we would love to learn more about you and your hopes for the embryos. Please know that we will honor your generosity with a lifetime of love and care for any child we are blessed to welcome.

 

With heartfelt gratitude,
