Hello & Thank You,  


We are Lori and Adam, and we want to thank you for considering us to be your child's adoptive parents. Thinking about the first words we would say to you consumes us, How can we express the gratitude and love we already feel for you? Though our circumstances and situation may be different, our coming together was written in our story long before we knew-- and that is more precious than gold. 


You are selfless, brave, and beyond strong. The magnitude of your decision shows how deeply you love this child. "There is gold in every piece of your story." That saying reminds me of how Japanese culture restores porcelain when it’s been chipped or broken, they piece it back together with a layer of gold. That veining of Gold brings out the beauty in the imperfection, making it a unique centerpiece for a story that has yet been told. We are merely trying to say God is creating a masterpiece out of our story and you are the solid gold God is using to put our broken pieces back together. 


Ever since I was a young girl I have wanted to adopt and be a stay at home Mom. Adoption became more real to us two years after getting married. Due to complications, it made it impossible for me to get pregnant without medical intervention. This was God's way of showing us that while His desire for our lives may be different, it is so beautiful. 


We are beyond excited to grow our family through adoption. Your child will be so loved, adored, and provided for. Your child will know the sacrifice you made and  love you have for them and they will always know where they came from and who their first family is. We look forward to getting to know you and hope to have the opportunity to develop a relationship together. We are praying for you, your health, your pregnancy, and your child.


Much Love,


Adam & Lori

Meet Adam

Meet Dan

Dan is the most amazing person on the planet. He is everything that I ever wanted in a husband, and our son, Garrett, is so lucky to have him as a father. He is kind, patient, and hard-working. He loves to spend his free time playing with Garrett and teaching him new things. I am 

so proud of the parent he is; Dan was meant to be a father. 

Meet Adam

One of the first things that attracted me to Adam was his boldness in asking me on a date without ever speaking to me beforehand. When we finally met, I was immediately captured by his light blue eyes. They felt safe and warm, like nothing could ever harm me as long as he was there.


He is funny and is rarely ever serious. He loves to talk in random voices and is constantly making up songs when he thinks no one else is listening. He loves to laugh, nap, eat, and build things. He has so many God-given talents it's hard just to name one. He has such a drive to achieve his goals and a desire to provide for our family no matter how hard. He is good at anything he sets his mind to and is extremely intelligent with common sense, too.


What I love most about Adam is his love for Jesus, me, and Riley. When Riley made us parents, it brought out a side of him that I had not seen before. It was so precious in those first weeks seeing Adam take over and be super Dad. Singing to her as he rocks her to sleep. Chasing her and throwing her in the air. Being Papa Bear when he felt protective. The twinkle in his eyes when he sees her. His face just lights up, and nothing in the world matters when he is with her.

Our Story

Adam and I were set up by our hairstylist, who had been talking us up to each other for months. One day, she sneakily scheduled our appointments back to back so we’d cross paths. As I walked in, she pointed Adam out and told me to friend her on Facebook—she’d take it from there.


A few weeks later, I gave in and sent the request. The next day, I got a message from Adam: “Just wanted to say hi and see if you’d like to go to dinner sometime?” I still have it saved. He made reservations at a local favorite I’d always wanted to try, picked me up from the home I had just bought, and after dinner we drove around for hours talking about everything. From that day on, we were inseparable.


Exactly a year later, Adam proposed in the home that became our family home. Our wedding was held lakeside, with the ceremony and reception at beautiful venues filled with family, friends, and amazing views.



The most unforgettable moment came at the end of the night: my dad, a longtime antique car collector, had promised me a 1963 Corvette when I grew up—but it was never restored. That night, as we prepared to leave, the crowd parted to reveal my little red Corvette, fully restored by Adam and my dad as a surprise. It was the perfect ending to a perfect day—and yes, I ugly cried!

Meet Riley

Hi, I’m Riley; Mamí and Papí adopted me in 2023. It is their desire for me to have a sibling to grow with and be my best friend. I love to laugh, dance, and greet everyone I meet with a huge smile and wave. I love animals, but I especially love my dog Asher and reading books.


Mamí and Papí feel that it is very important for me to know my heritage and my story. They include my Mexican heritage traditions in our holiday celebrations and incorporate yummy foods. Mamí and Papí are learning Spanish so they can teach me as I grow up. My birth family primarily speaks Spanish, so it’s important that we be able to connect and communicate.

Our Home

Our home is a cottage-style house on a large lot in a great, established neighborhood. Located on a quiet dead-end street with settled neighbors. Our home has three bedrooms, one bath, and a large fenced backyard.


I purchased this house as a fixer upper when I was single. It quickly became the project that Adam and I put sweat and tears into to renovate and make our home.

Adam's Family

My Mom is the best Mimi any kid could ever ask for—she is so involved in her children and grandchildren’s lives. I have never met a person who would give anything to make sure you are taken care of. My Dad, who was a wonderful Gandadda, passed away in 2013. My younger sister is married and has two children who we adore and love spending time with. They all live about an hour away where I was born and raised. My mom loves spending every moment she can with Riley. We FaceTime when apart and play on the floor together singing pat-a-cake and other nursery rhythms when reunited.


Mimi is beyond excited to have a fourth grandchild to spoil. Having Riley added to the cousin crew has been such a blessing. Alyssa and Gavin are both obsessed with Riley and are constantly vying for her attention. While Aunt Niki takes her for horse back rides. Riley is now obsessed with horses. Uncle Jeremy loves to tickle her with his facial hair and make her squeal.

Lori's Family

Since I am an only child, my immediate family is very small. My parents have been married 50 years. We all live in the same town, so we have the luxury of having family support close to us. My mom is now retired from our local university. She enjoys gardening and shopping. My dad is kind of a jack of all trades and loves antique cars. My parents and I are animal lovers, and because they live on a few acres of land, we have many animals. I used to refer to our home as an ark because we had two of everything. They are very active with Riley when they see her. Grammy wants all the snuggles and kisses she can get while Grandpa is expected to chase her around saying “I’m gonna get you” as she shrieks and giggles while trying to run away. They are so in love with Riley and can’t wait to share that love with another grandchild.

Sir Asher

From the moment I met Riley I was in love. We are thick as thieves. I love giving kisses and helping her eat her snacks and nap. I am very patient and love kids. Riley rides me like a horse while I sleep. Getting another human will double my fun. I’m a happy boy and can’t wait to meet my new playmate.

We love to travel and explore new places. Our favorite place to be is in the mountains. I’m from Texas, born and raised. We travel there all the time since all of my family still live there. We love to eat, so finding a hidden gem that is a local favorite is always at the top of our to-do list.


Traveling with Riley has definitely added a new layer of joy to our adventures. She is so curious and fearless.


We have learned so far that, like us, she enjoys the mountains, but she is not yet a beach bum as she doesn’t like the feel of sand in between her toes.


Getting to see the excitement and sparkle in her eyes as she points to something or says wow, just melts our hearts and we can't wait to add another to our adventures!

Love Makes a Family

Getting to add Riley to our family was definitely a blessing but Riley came to us with a family of her own. Her birth family is and will always be part of that package. It was also our desire to have a relationship with our birth family. Having said that our relationship with Riley’s birth family is completely open and healthy. No matter the circumstances Riley will always know her roots and how much her birth family loves her. Our communication and sharing in each others lives are as open as what is comfortable and healthy for everyone involved. Our wish is to continue with that kind of open relationship with our new birth family.

Jose & Daniella - Texas

By Brittany Carvalho • February 13, 2026
Hello & Thank You , First, we want to thank you for taking a look into our lives and reviewing our book. We can’t even begin to understand what you are going through, but we pray that God continues to give you strength and courage through all the emotions you are feeling. We know that you are a selfless woman just by knowing that you are choosing to create an adoption plan for your child. Our names are Jose and Daniella. We met each other in 2014, and we got married in 2016. A year later, we began trying to have a child of our own. After three years of seeing a fertility doctor and seven years of trying different treatments, we were unsuccessful. Jose and I want to expand our family, and we know adoption is the answer to our prayers. We both have siblings we grew up with, and we hope that we are able to add another sibling to expand our love and family in the near future. We want you to know that your child is already loved by so many, including grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and many more family members. We promise to raise your child with unconditional love, provide many life skills, compassion, respect, morals, and provide any education your child dreams of. We also believe in God and would love to raise your child knowing who God is. If you choose us to be part of your adoption plan, we can assure you that we will share your child’s adoption story with them from the very beginning. We will celebrate the love you have for them and honor the decision you made. Thank you once again for this opportunity to get to know us. This process has been one we prayed and cried about, as having a family of our own has been a difficult journey for us both. As you glance through our book, we pray that you see the love we share with each other, our families, our faith, and the joy we have for the future journey we have prayed about. Whichever decision you make, we want you to know that you will forever be in our prayers. Sincerely, Jose & Daniella

Nick & Chelsea – Texas

By Brittany Carvalho • February 3, 2026
Hello & Thank You , We are Chelsea and Nick, and we are truly honored and grateful that you are considering us as potential adoptive parents for your child. We want to acknowledge the immense courage and strength it takes to choose adoption, and we deeply appreciate the thought and care you are giving to this decision. Our journey to adoption has been deeply personal. While we have faced struggles with infertility, our desire to adopt began long before we were married. Growing up, Chelsea was surrounded by adoption. Two of her siblings, her aunt, and her uncle were all adopted, so building a family this way has always felt natural to her. Our faith in God plays a central role in our lives, guiding us to love, serve, and trust His plan. Adoption reflects the love and grace we believe He has shown us, and it is a path we hold very dear. After facing challenges and experiencing a loss, we were so blessed to welcome our daughter, Sofia, into our lives through adoption. She is everything to us, our little miracle and a daily reminder that love and hope can turn any hardship into something beautiful. For us, adoption represents not only the joy and love of expanding our family but also the incredible strength and love of parents like you who make this choice. We are surrounded by family and friends who have embraced our journey and who share in our joy and commitment to providing a nurturing and supportive home. As parents, we hope to offer a child a home where they will feel cherished and encouraged to grow, celebrate their uniqueness, and pursue their dreams in every way possible. Should we be chosen, we want your child to always know how special, wanted, and deeply loved they are—not only by our family and us but also by you. We want you to know that you will always hold a meaningful and cherished place in their life and in our family. Please know that your decision, whatever it may be, is honored and supported. Thank you for considering us as potential adoptive parents and for the hope you bring to families like ours. Please know that you are in our prayers. With heartfelt appreciation, Nick & Chelsea

Joe & Dani – Wisconsin

By Brittany Carvalho • January 29, 2026
Hello & Thank You , We are Dani, Joe, Emerson, and Benjamin. Nice to meet you! We are so grateful to you for taking the time to get to know us a little better. We realize you may be feeling many different emotions at this time, and we want you to know that we will be supportive of you and your child. We will care about you, too. Our hope in creating this book is that you'll feel the love, laughter, and joy in our daily lives and our adventures, and be able to imagine what a life with us could be like for your child. We have two children, Benjamin and Emerson. After complications from Dani's pregnancy with Emerson that led to a hysterectomy, Dani is no longer able to carry a child. In 2023, we adopted our son, Benjamin, and have an open relationship with his birth family. We are so grateful to his birth family for choosing us and trusting us to raise their child. We are excited to grow our family once again through adoption and are thankful to you for taking the time to get to know us. If you choose us, your child will grow up alongside two sweet and playful big brothers who are curious, energetic, and full of love. They will also have a gentle golden retriever nearby for snuggles and games of fetch. Our home is filled with laughter and connection, and we are intentional about creating a space where our children feel secure, encouraged, and deeply loved. We acknowledge that you have a very important role in your child’s life, and we would like to have an open adoption so that your child will know their story. It is important to us that we honor your wishes regarding the level of openness you would like in your child’s life. We will keep the promises we make together and always put your child’s needs at the center of our decisions. We both value kindness, curiosity, humor, and a love of learning, and we strive to model those values every day. We want our children to grow up feeling unconditionally loved, seen, heard, and supported. Even when life feels challenging, we face it together and always put our kids first. We are so excited to grow our family through adoption and would be honored to give your child that same love and support. Thank you for taking the time to read our story. We would truly love to get to know you. With Love, Joe & Dani

Douglas & Pamela - Texas

By Brittany Carvalho • January 27, 2026
Hello & Thank You , Thank you so much for taking the time to learn about us and consider us as you explore your options. We know this isn't an easy decision. While we cannot know what you are experiencing, we truly respect the care and thought that goes into creating an adoption plan. We are Douglas and Pamela. We’ve been together for thirteen years and married for nine. Throughout our relationship, we’ve talked about building our family through adoption, and Pamela has known since she was a teen that adoption would likely be the safest way to start a family. While we did spend time hoping to conceive, we later learned that pregnancy would come with significant medical risks, including a very high chance of miscarriage and complications that could affect both her and the baby. After many visits with doctors and thoughtful conversations with each other, we chose adoption as the right path for us. We’re excited to open our hearts, our home, and share everyday moments together as a family! If chosen, your child will be raised in a loving, stable environment where they are deeply cared for and supported. They will grow up knowing their story began with love and care. We will always speak of you with respect and gratitude. Thank you again for considering us as adoptive parents for your child. Whatever you decide, we wish you peace, support, and kindness as you move forward. Sincerely, Douglas & Pamela

Jesus & Abbey - Texas

By Brittany Carvalho • January 26, 2026
Hello & Thank You , From the very beginning, we want you to know you are seen and valued. We can’t imagine the strength it takes to walk this journey, and we truly admire your courage. As it says in Isaiah 41:10, “Do not fear for I am with you. I will strengthen you and help you.” We pray you feel that promise wrapped around you. That you are not alone, that you are supported and that God’s strength is carrying you through each step. Thank you for taking the time to get to know us. It feels hard to put into words how much love and gratitude we already feel as we write this. Our names are Abbey and Jesus, and we live in Texas with our two dogs, Drax and Willow. Little did we know that a simple haircut would be the start of our lifelong adventure together. We have been together for eight years and married for almost 5 years. From that day forward, we built a life full of love, laughter, and faith. Every step has brought us closer, and now our hearts are ready to welcome a child with the same care and devotion we’ve poured into each other. We later found out that we could not have biological children due to infertility issues. While that news was difficult, it only strengthens what we already knew in our hearts that we wanted to be parents and share all the love we have to give. Adoption felt like the path God was leading us toward, and it has been calling to us ever since. We are so excited to open our hearts and home to your child. We promise they will always feel safe, loved, cared for, and supported. We believe it is important for your child to understand their adoption story and to grow up knowing how deeply loved by everyone involved. The relationship between a child and their birth family is significant, and we strongly support an open adoption. However comfortable you are, we would truly welcome you to be a part of their life. Thank you for opening your heart to read our story. No matter what you decide, we wish you peace, comfort, and endless love for you and your child. With love and gratitude, Jesus & Abbey

Andy & Katie – Wisconsin

By Brittany Carvalho • January 25, 2026
Hello & Thank You , We sincerely appreciate you taking the time to learn about who we are, and we are honored and humbled that you would consider us to adopt your child. While we can never fully understand how difficult this decision is or what you are going through, we want you to know that we see your strength, bravery, and selflessness. We will make sure your child grows up knowing that, and feeling proud of their story and where they come from. We are committed to being open and honest every step of the way. We are Andy and Katie. We have been married for 10 years and have known each other for 14. From the very beginning of our relationship, we knew we wanted to build a family together. About a year into our marriage, we began trying, but faced many challenges and soon started infertility treatments. After many years, tests, and procedures without success, we felt called to pursue adoption, not realizing our greatest gift was yet to come. We met our son, Jude, in March of 2024, and our lives changed in the best possible way. He is the love of our lives and has been surrounded by the love and support of our family, friends, and community from the very beginning. The additional love of the family we gained through his birth parents and birth grandmother has been immeasurable, and we truly feel that it was meant to be. Jude is so ready to be a big brother, and we are thrilled to grow our family through adoption again. When it comes to raising your child, we promise to surround them with love, from us and from the many people who support us. We will teach them to lead with empathy, kindness, and respect for others. We promise a life filled with joy, laughter, cuddles, storytimes, music, and adventure. We will be their biggest advocate. Most of all, we promise to always be open and honest, sharing their story with them and helping them feel proud of who they are. We are so grateful for you and hope our profile gives you a glimpse into our lives and helps you feel a sense of comfort in what lies ahead. We would be honored to learn more about you and walk this journey alongside you, whenever and if you feel ready. With gratitude and love, Andy & Katie

Phill & Shayle – Missouri

By Brittany Carvalho • January 24, 2026
Hello & Thank You , We are Phill and Shayle, and we feel truly honored that you have taken the time to look at our profile and consider us as potential adoptive parents for your child. We can only begin to imagine how difficult this decision may be for you. What we do know is that it comes from a place of deep love. It takes an incredibly strong person to made a choice like this, one rooted in hope and care for your child. We want you to know how much we respect you and the journey you are on. Even though we haven’t met, please know that you have been in our hearts and prayers. Our daughter, Letti, is from Phill’s first marriage. She has always dreamed of becoming a big sister, and we know she will be a wonderful one. Even before we were married, we talked about adoption and knew it was part of the life we wanted to build together. To us, family is not defined only by biology. It is also built on love, connection, and commitment, and our hearts have always been open to growing our family through adoption. We want you to know that your child’s story matters deeply to us. We believe that being adopted is an important and meaningful part of who they are, just like their cultural and ethnic background. We are committed to being open and honest from the very beginning. We want them to know about you, where they came from, and the love that surrounds their story. We would love the opportunity to get to know you, your hopes, your dreams, and what you envision for your child’s future. We are open to whatever level of communication feels right and comfortable for you, and we are committed to building a relationship based on trust and respect. As you look through our book, we hope it brings you comfort and gives you a glimpse into the love, laughter, and joy that fill our lives. If you feel a connection with us, please know that you are not only choosing a family for your child. You are also choosing a community of people who will love and support them unconditionally. And if you wish, you will always be a meaningful part of that extended circle of love. With love and gratitude, Phill & Shayle

Hello & Thank You , We know your mind is probably running a million miles a minute right now, so we're grateful you're taking a moment to read this. Before we say anything else, thank you. Not for any decision you have or haven't made, but simply for the love that's clearly driving every step you're taking. The love it takes to be in this moment... to put your child's future above everything else... is something we deeply admire. Now, the introductions. We're Josh and Iffy, married for 6 years and residing in the Dallas-Fort Worth area with our little household zoo (three cats and one very outnumbered dog). We are, at our core, a team, and becoming parents together has been our dream. Our road here hasn't been without heartbreak. We've faced years of infertility and the grief of multiple miscarriages. Those losses changed us, and in some ways they led us here to you, to this child, to this path. We don't see adoption as a last resort. We see it as exactly where we were always meant to end up. If you choose us, we promise that your child will always know their story. Where they came from, and the extraordinary love that surrounded them from the very beginning... including yours. Your baby would be coming home to a place full of warmth, curiosity, laughter, and love. They would grow up knowing they were chosen, not because they had to be, but because we wanted them more than we can say. Thank you for considering us. Thank you for your courage, your love, and for reading these words. We are rooting for you, and we are so hopeful for what the future holds for all of us. With so much love, Josh & Iffy

Hello & Thank You , Thank you for taking the time to learn more about us and for considering us as a family to raise your child. Your love for your child is already evident, and we honor the strength it takes to make decisions rooted in that love. We can only imagine how overwhelming this process may feel, and we deeply respect the courage, love, and care you are showing. Please know we are thinking of you and praying for you as you navigate this journey, no matter what you decide. We are incredibly grateful and excited to be growing our family through adoption after a long journey with infertility and loss. For three years, we pursued fertility treatments and experienced seven early miscarriages. During that time, God began to give us a clear vision for how we would build our family. While our season of infertility was painful, it also strengthened our marriage, deepened our communication, and helped us grow in patience, faith, and trust in God’s timing. It prepared us spiritually, emotionally, physically, and financially for adoption. In March of 2024, we adopted our son, Dawson, from birth and were blessed to be by his birth mother’s side when he was born. We continue to share updates and photos with her today. We want you to know your child will be raised in a home filled with love, honesty, warmth, and support. We believe in teaching values such as respect, integrity, faith, and compassion, and we strive to make everyday moments meaningful as a family. Our home is a place where people feel welcomed, safe, and deeply cared for. We will always honor the level of openness you choose and deeply respect the trust and sacrifice involved in this decision. Our hope is that, through this book, you can see the love we have for each other, our son, our families, our friends, our pets, and the child we hope to welcome. We are truly grateful for your consideration of us as adoptive parents. We are keeping you in our thoughts and prayers, no matter what path you choose. With love, David & Lindsey
