You will never know how much we appreciate you taking the time to listen to our story and consider us as possible adoptive parents of your baby. We know that this decision will be one of the hardest that you ever have to make. We pray that whatever decision you do make will be the best for you and your child! Ryan and I met in 2008 and formed a great friendship. In 2010 we began dating and 2 years later we were married. Because we had the foundation of a friendship before our marriage, we are an extremely strong couple. We decided shortly after we got married that we would start trying to have children. We always knew our main purpose in life was to be parents and were excited to start this journey. After 2 years of trying to get pregnant we decided to change our course and look into adoption. We have discussed the possibility of adoption since we first started dating. It has always been a consideration even before we knew we would have difficulties conceiving a child. We know numerous couples that have adopted and their stories inspired us! We do not believe families have to be just a mom, dad and child. We believe the more good people influencing a child, the better! This is the reason we have chosen to have an open adoption with the birth parents if they choose this option. Thank you for making such an unselfish decision. We want you to know that if you choose us, your child will be loved more than any other child on this planet! Sincerely, Ryan and Amanda
