dear expectant mother

Dear Expectant Mother,

We cannot even begin to understand what you’re going through and how you feel about considering this decision. No matter what, you know what’s best for you and your baby, and that’s what’s driving you. We are so grateful to you for considering us as the adoptive moms for your baby! All we’ve ever wanted is to be parents and to give a child love, security, and encouragement.

For several years now, there has been a hole in our hearts in the place we keep the love for a child. We’ve helped raise our nieces and nephews and helped take care of our friends’ kids, but we’ve always wanted children of our own.

Natalie can’t wait to teach your baby how to dribble a basketball and play flag football. Megan plans to teach your child German and Spanish, sing to them, and read all her favorite books aloud. We can’t wait to see if your baby chooses Natalie’s team (the Braves) or Megan’s (the Cardinals), but we already have the Cowboys jersey picked out!

We will support and respect you throughout this journey and promise to be open and flexible about how you are a part of your child’s life. This miraculous gift would not be possible without your selflessness, bravery, and faith. We are committed to this experience and will be forever grateful!
