Chance, Riley, Cooper, and Coulter

Dear Birth Mother,

We cannot imagine how difficult and emotional this decision is for you and your baby. Thank you for considering adoption and know that you are deeply loved and supported by us in your journey. Adoption is one of the bravest and most selfless acts a mother can do, and we greatly admire you for this.

Chance and I have known each other for 13 years and have been married for 10. We have two precious little boys. Cooper is the big brother at four years old, and Coulter is the little brother at two years old. We are overjoyed that we have been given two biological children but have always felt the calling to adopt. We cannot wait to add another child to our crew to love unconditionally.

Our family loves traveling, exploring new places, playing outdoors, and spending quality time together. Chance enjoys reading and doing carpentry projects while Riley enjoys anything competitive and sports related. Cooper and Coulter love to play superheroes, bull riders, and wrestle with their dad. Over the weekends we can be found hosting friends and family at our house, attending sports activities, and going to church on Sundays. Both Chance and I are blessed with wonderful families. We rotate holidays between our immediate families and make it a goal to take a yearly trip with just our boys. Our family members are incredibly excited for us and support our decision to adopt. They cannot wait to meet the new baby and welcome him or her into their hearts and homes. Please know that we are praying for you and your baby. We pray that you consider us and trust that God will help fill you with peace in your decision. Thank you for the opportunity to bless our family with a child and nurture a relationship with you as the birth mother.

With love,
Chance, Riley, Cooper, and Coulter

We have so much love to give

Our Experience with Adoption
We talked about adoption early on in our relationship, and agreed how when the time was right, we would grow our family that way. Our hearts are open and full of so much love to give. We looked into infant adoption and decided that what our heart really wanted was an older child who needed us just as much as we needed them. We have an amazing support team behind us during this journey and beyond. We are excited with the chance to welcome a child into home.
We completed the adoption courses that we took with Families Through Adoption, which is the company who completed our home study. It has expired but we have no problem getting it done again to add training for an older child. The process to complete this is estimated from our social worker to be 3 months.
We believe that every child deserves a loving and stable home. With love, patience and understanding, a child will be able to heal and thrive. We also realize it will present some challenges as well. We are willing to put in the hard work to help them heal and learn to trust us. We have done research on parenting a child with trauma and PTSD. We are also willing to get any additional support needed such as therapy, counseling, or support groups. This would benefit us and the child. We know there are resources available to help all of us succeed at being a family and we are committed to using them. We are confident that with the right support, we can be successful parents to a child who has failed in an adoptive home. We would be committed to the child and understand she needs to heal, thrive all while feeling safe. The child has been through so much already in life, and we would make sure she is comfortable and that she can trust us.

Completing our family!

Hi,

Our names are Katie and Jason and we are interested in adopting a child to expand our family! We have been happily married for several years and believe that children are an absolute blessing to our family. We have one young son, but we are hoping to expand our family. Our son loves Santa, using “tools” to fix things, and enjoys eating anything with cheese on it. He loves going to the Home Depot and playing with his cars. He is very sweet and we are so proud of him! We are a Chrisitian family and raise our son with these values in mind.

We are both teachers with advanced degrees and were born and raised in Maryland. We live in a large single family home in a rural setting with a big yard in one of the best school districts in Maryland! We have very nice neighbors and are only a short drive from a town.

Both sets of our parents live locally and we see them regularly. They are a valuable support system for us and are involved in our lives. Katie’s older sister lives nearby and we have a very close relationship. Jason’s brother, sister in law, niece and nephew recently moved out of state, but we keep in touch with them via phone/video chat. There is a great family that lives next door with similar aged children. Finally, we have a variety of friends that we connect with and many of whom have young children as well.

In our free time we enjoy playing golf, though we are still learning how to improve our game. We enjoy playing with our son and spending time with our families on the weekends. Our son likes to play in the backyard on the swing/playhouse, help us “drive” the tractor or help with yard work. We enjoy going to the library or local events on weekends. We live in the central Maryland area so we are close to a variety of activities and opportunities.

We are currently home study approved to adopt a child aged 0-10 and have an established relationship with an adoption lawyer.

Caring

Hi,
I'm Penny and my husband is John. John and I have been married since 2009. We have a 12 year old son whom is mild to moderate on the autism spectrum and a 11 year old daughter. We are unable to safely have a 3rd child of our own but are very interested in adopting a child who needs a forever home.

John and I feel that we have a loving family, who have typical daily struggles like most families. We enjoy getting outdoors, playtime, swimming, biking, cooking/baking as a family, daily/nightly walks plus hiking in cooler weather.

I'm a certified Arizona Teacher that has not returned to the classroom since taking a break the year before covid. I taught for 18 years in public education. I plan to start my own tutoring business within the year. My husband, John is a successful self employed business owner for over 30 years.

My folks live in Phoenix as well as my brother, Uncle Eric. John's folks and his two brothers families live in Dallas Texas.

Knowing that we deeply wanted to share our love and life experiences with a child, we started talking about a child joining our family. Aaron was elated to discuss the possibility of having a child but Christa has had reproductive health issues since high school. As we explored our options for having a child, we realized getting pregnant ourselves was not a viable possibility. Having suspected for a long time that she may face infertility, adoption is something that Christa has always had at the forefront of her mind. After considering our options we decided that adoption was the best path for us in creating a family. We know that a child who is placed with us will be accepted and loved as family, regardless of their genetics, by everyone in our lives.

We love baby

Hello mom, and thank you for taking some time to meet our family. You have, no doubt, a difficult choice before you, and we are so grateful that you are considering us as an option. We don’t know you yet, but we would like to get to know you. Let us tell you about our family. We are currently three; Liam (dad), Kensi (mom), and Nova (princess). We have always wanted a full family, but pregnancy with Nova was very difficult. We ourselves had a difficult choice; do we try for another pregnancy and risk mom or baby’s health, or do we adopt and attempt to navigate a family that is unconventional? Adoption won out. We believe that love does not always look like perfect fairy tale endings. We believe that sometimes, oftentimes, love costs the one who loves greatly, but love always has the best interest of another at heart. We decided that if there are mothers who are brave enough to yield their baby to another for the sake of the baby, then we could be brave enough to be a part of that love. We are tremendously excited to share our lives with another child. We know the love that Christ has for all his children. We are very involved in our church and close to our small group. We often are with them playing board games, roasting s’mores, or playing with our kids together. We love to go hiking, camping, anything outdoorsy, traveling, eating and making good food, and spending time together as a family. We are the parents who will love our children first and foremost, no matter what. We are the parents that will be at every game or event cheering our child on embarrassingly loud. We promise, as potential parents for your baby, to:
-Teach them about the love of Jesus.
-Spend quality family time together.
-Guide and correct them as they grow.
-Teach that there are consequences for our actions (both positive and negative).
-Lead by example by showing them how to be kind, love others, and serve.
-Embrace their heritage and learn about it together.
-Always ensure they feel wanted, loved, secure, valued, and needed.
And
-To teach them that we (Liam and Kensi) and you (mom reading this) love them so much that we created this relationship centered around them.
We know this is a difficult spot for you. We wish we could be there with you now and hugging you through this decision. If you decide to choose us, our first response will be praying and thanking the Lord for you. Your bravery and sacrifice will be appreciated and honored here. We promise to give everything we have to raise loving humans. We promise to keep educating ourselves to be the best parents. Most of all, we promise to love your baby with our entire heart for all of our lives. Thank-you for considering the Terry family.
