Hello & Thank You,  


Thank you for considering us to be parents of your child. We cannot imagine what you’re going through and how difficult this must be, but we admire your strength and the love you have for your child.  


My name is Bre, and my husband is Lane. We began dating in 2018 and were married in 2021. Adoption has been on my heart since before we were married. By our fourth date, I shared with Lane that I likely wouldn’t be able to have kids biologically, and that adoption would likely be the route to starting a family. It may have been early in a relationship for such a heavy conversation, but luckily, it didn’t scare Lane in the least bit. His steady support only deepened my love for him. We are excited to grow our family and can’t wait to be parents. 


I was a teacher for many years and now work in an administrative role at a school. Between my time in education, time spent with friends’ children, and the wonderful moments I share with my niece and nephews, I’ve gained a lot of experience with children and love spending time with them.

Lane is a project manager and enjoys the work-life balance his job provides. He has no work travel and very predictable hours, which we feel will be ideal when raising a child. Lane is amazing with our friends’ kids, our godchildren, and his niece and nephews, all of whom adore him. He’s always the favorite among the kids; they love playing and interacting with Lane and think he is so much fun.


We are fortunate to have a huge community of friends and family all nearby.  We spend a lot of time with them, and your child will be surrounded by that same love and support.

We promise your child a warm, loving home filled with fun, safety, family traditions, and unique experiences. Your child will always be encouraged to cultivate their interests, value learning, embrace their individuality, experience new things, and embody kindness.


We will be honest and open with your child about who they are, where they come from, and how much they are loved by both you and us. Whatever your decision may be, thank you for taking the time to consider us.


Sincerely,


Lane & Bre

Meet Lane

Meet Lane

Lane is the most loyal, grounded, sentimental, and reliable person I know. He loves spending quality time with me, his friends, and his family. He shows his love through acts of service, compliments, and cheesy sayings. His cheesy compliments may make me roll my eyes, but those, along with his smile, are part of the reason I fell in love with him.


His favorite thing to do is golf, and rarely a week goes by that he doesn’t at least go to the driving range. No matter his schedule, though, he always prioritizes time with me and our household duties. Although he may not enjoy household chores as much as he does golf, he always contributes and makes our relationship a true partnership in all things. We enjoy going out and doing things together, but we also enjoy simple things together, such as cooking dinner or watching a favorite show.


Lane is truly the best with kids. We always joke that we don’t know why because he didn’t grow up spending time with young kids, but he’s a natural. Our godchildren adore him, as do our niece and nephews. They always want to play with Uncle Lane! When I spend time with Lane, I feel joy and at peace, and I know that is how he will make a child feel.

Meet Bre

Bre is genuinely one of the most selfless and caring people I have ever met. She never misses a chance to tell me how much she loves me, and it never gets old hearing her say it. I like teasing her with great pickup lines or cheesy sayings, and her smile afterwards makes it all worth it.


Her favorite thing to do is spend time with her family, and not a day goes by without at least chatting with her mom. Bre also enjoys trying new things with me, such as restaurants, as we explore different parts of the metroplex. We plan to travel more as we get older to explore not only this country but also other countries.

 

She is a big softy when it comes to friends’ kids, our families' kids, or our godchildren, as she is always one of the favorites. She is so calm around the children and loves to have new toys for them to play with when they come over.

    • Our Story

    We first met in college through mutual friends and even attended some of the same events, but we did not begin dating until years later. We reconnected at our best friends’ Halloween party, where Lane asked me on a date. I almost backed out because we had so many mutual friends and worried about what might happen if it did not work out, but with encouragement from my best friend, I decided to go.


    From our first date, we knew it was something special. Conversation came easily, and we felt comfortable with each other right away. While dating, we bonded over trying new restaurants, traveling, going to concerts, and spending time with friends and family.

    ļ»æ

    We made it through the pandemic and the snowstorm together, which showed us how strong we are as a couple. Lane proposed in our kitchen in January of 2021, and we were married in November of 2021, surrounded by our closest friends and family.

    • Lane owned a home before we got married, but shortly after, we bought our current house together. We moved to our house in June 2022, and we chose our neighborhood because it’s a nice, safe area with great schools.


    Our house is a three-bedroom, two-bathroom house with a study that we currently use as our workout room. It has a wonderful porch and pool in the backyard that we use constantly in the summer, and we love to have all our friends and their kids over for pool days. A great playground for kids is less than a mile from our house.

    Lane's Family

    My family stays closely connected through regular texts and calls, even though we do not all live in the same area. My parents have been married for 37 years and now enjoy retirement and lake life. My mom is a retired ICU nurse, so she is always the first call when someone needs advice or help.


    My brother is married to a wonderful woman, and they have a son who is almost two and completely adored by all of us. They still live in the town where we grew up and love the close knit, small town life. My sister is also married and has two children, ages five and three. Her husband is in the Air Force, which has taken them to different places. They currently live near the beach, which makes visits extra special, and once he retires, they plan to move back to Texas.

    ļ»æ

    Our family would welcome another child with open arms. The kids would love having another cousin, and the aunts and uncles have been eagerly waiting for the chance to celebrate with Bre and me since we first shared our hopes of adopting.

    • My family is close knit and has always been incredibly supportive. My parents have been married for almost 40 years, and I have a younger brother who recently got married. He chose a wonderful partner, and we were all so excited to welcome her into our family. We all live about 30 minutes from one another, including one of my grandmothers, which allows us to spend a lot of time together.

    ļ»æ

    Their support goes far beyond words and shows up in everyday life. If we need help staining a fence, building shelves, or reorganizing the garage, my family is always there without hesitation. We truly show up for one another, and I know this same love and support will surround your child.


    This will be my parents’ first grandchild, and they are over the moon with excitement. Since we live close and my parents will be retired soon, they are looking forward to being very involved and actively present in their grandchild’s life.

    • Cat Life

    Lane was not a fan of cats when we started dating, since his only experience had been with a feral cat his family briefly had that attacked everyone. Loving my cats was non negotiable, though. At the time, I had two rescue cats, and our orange tabby, Mallie, loved attention and quickly won Lane over. Before long, Lane was officially a cat person.

    ļ»æ

    Sadly, our sweet Mallie passed away this year from cancer, but we still have our black cat, Bentley. He definitely favors me, which Lane says is because I saved him, but Lane is a close second. Bentley greets him at the door, rubs on him, and happily shares snacks and dinner. Steak is his favorite, just like Lane.


    Bentley is more reserved with guests than Mallie was, but once he warms up, he loves pets, toys, snuggles, and treats. He is clever and curious and often sneaks into the pantry to wait for treats, keeping us laughing.

    • We have a large group of friends close by that we are lucky enough to see regularly. We enjoy getting together with them to watch football games, for holiday parties, for birthdays, and for pool days. We often meet them out at restaurants where the kids can run around and play. It’s a great time filled with fun and laughter, especially when all the kids are around.

     

    Our best friends asked us to be godparents to their two children, and we were so honored. We love getting together with them for dinner and having them over to swim.

    ļ»æ

    Our friends are all supportive of each other and help each other whenever needed, and I know they will be supportive and loving of your child. The kids will love having another person to play with, too!

    We love traveling to new locations and experiencing new adventures. From small towns to the mountains to beaches, we love it all!


    On our first Valentine’s, we took a quick trip to Fort Worth and realized we love exploring new places together. Some of the places we’ve traveled together are Cape Cod, Jamaica, Mexico, San Diego, and Colorado, and we’ve had a blast on every trip. But some of our favorite trips have been to small towns in Texas, where we've spent time hiking, exploring shops, trying local restaurants, and just enjoying slow-paced, quality time together.

    ļ»æ

    We look forward to taking a child on many travel adventures with us and exposing them to exciting, unique experiences.

    • Bre’s Family Traditions:   My family loves to celebrate and spend time together. We’re lucky to live close and gather often, even for dinner “just because.” We never miss birthdays or holidays, and Christmas at my parents’ house is especially meaningful, filled with food, games, gifts, and laughter. It’s our favorite holiday, and Lane has fully embraced our over-the-top traditions.


    My grandma is known for her baking, especially her chocolate chip cookies, and baking with her is something I cherish. Games are also a big part of our family time, and my dad loves teaching others how to play.



    Lane’s Family Traditions:  I grew up with hunting, fishing, and lots of lake time, especially fishing with my dad and brother. Much of my childhood was spent at the lake boating, swimming, and fishing with extended family. Now that my parents live at the lake, I treasure the time we spend together fishing, boating, swimming, and enjoying fish fries. Even though we don’t all live close, these moments together are incredibly special, and I look forward to sharing them with another child.

    Spencer & Amanda - Wisconsin

    By Brittany Carvalho • December 13, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , Just saying thank you isn't enough for us to express our gratitude for considering us to be adoptive parents. We cannot begin to understand how difficult this decision is and that it is not taken lightly. No matter your decision, you are in our thoughts and prayers. We are Amanda and Spencer. We have been together over ten years and have been married for three. From the very beginning of our relationship, we talked about starting a family, but God had different plans for us. Unfortunately, Amanda has faced health challenges that have led to infertility, which won't allow us to have our own biological children. Adoption has touched both our lives in meaningful ways. Spencer's mother was adopted, and she is ecstatic that we are pursuing this path. In addition, Spencer has two adopted cousins, and I have one as well. Both of our families are loving and supportive of our decision, and we are all ready to share unconditional love with a child. Since we both have relatives who were adopted, we believe it is important for your child to understand their adoption story from the very beginning. We look forward to sharing with your child just how special they and their birth family are to us. The relationship between a child and their birth family is significant, and we strongly support an open adoption. There is no such thing as too many people to love and support a child. Raised in the Catholic faith, we plan to instill the same values in our future child. We cherish faith, family, community, friendships, and love, and we will teach the importance of hard work and the achievements it can bring. With both our families and friends nearby, your child will be surrounded by a loving network of support. Thank you for the time to read our story and consider us as potential adoptive parents. We wish you peace on this journey and the very best for you and your child. Sincerely, Spencer & Amanda

    Zack & Lindsay – Wisconsin

    By Brittany Carvalho • December 1, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , Our names are Zack and Lindsay, and we are so grateful that you're considering us to be a potential part of your adoption plan. We can't imagine how hard this is for you or what you're going through. We do understand there’s no way for us to truly grasp the weight of your decision, but we respect and admire your strength and courage. Through this letter and this book, we want to share a little about ourselves with you. We met in 2008, and it was love at first sight. After 6 months of dating, we got engaged and married in 2010. We knew early on in our marriage that we wanted to explore adoption to build a family, and we had lots of love to give. Over time, we grew together, strengthened our love, and prepared our lives and our home to provide a caring, nurturing environment for a new addition to our family. Our adoption journey was difficult due to our issues with infertility, but our motivation to adopt comes from a place of love and a desire to share that love by growing our family. In 2022, we were blessed with adopting a beautiful baby boy, Atlas, who is the light of our lives. It has been our privilege to watch him grow, learn, change, and develop. He’s shown us how wonderful and rewarding adoption can be, motivating us to continue our adoption journey. We have so much respect and admiration for Atlas's birth mom. We regularly share pictures and updates of all Atlas’s changes and activities, and we make sure that he’s aware that we’re sending updates to his birth mom so that as he grows, we can continue to share his adoption story with him. We feel it’s so important that Atlas’s birth mom gets to watch him develop, and we want you to know that we are open to whatever contact you would like. As a family, we want to honor and respect Atlas’s heritage, and one way we’re doing that is by learning Spanish together. Atlas attends a Spanish-speaking school, and we are learning Spanish along with him. We are both driven and have many hobbies, including physical and outdoor activities, reading, cooking, and continuing education. For us, raising children means bringing the most important people in the world along with us on new adventures and learning new skills. We hope this book gives you a look into our lives, who we are as people, who we are as a couple, and who we are as a family. We are thinking of you and wish you well in all you do. Thank you for taking the time to get to know us. Sincerely, Zack & Lindsay

    Mark & Kristin - Texas

    By Brittany Carvalho • November 28, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , Thank you for taking the time to view our photobook and consider us as adoptive parents for your baby. We are so excited to be adopting a baby and finally becoming parents. We know you will follow your heart and make the best choice in selecting the family for your baby to join. We are Kristin and Mark, and we have been together since November 2020, married in April 2022. When we first started dating, I shared with Mark that because of my reproductive issues, having a biological child might not be possible. He was very understanding and supportive and open to adoption as a way to start our family. Mark and I are surrounded by a huge support system on both of our sides, who cannot wait to have another child join the family. We have lots of nieces and nephews who are anxiously awaiting the arrival of a new cousin to play with. Our parents are looking forward to having another grandchild to spoil. Your child will be raised in a loving Christian home, guided by values of kindness, compassion, integrity, and the importance of family. They will be loved unconditionally and always have unwavering family support in all they choose to endeavor. We look forward to sharing our love of sports and music while encouraging them to explore their own passions. As we continue deepening our faith, we are committed to becoming more involved in church and look forward to attending regularly as a family. While growing up, we both dreamt of one day having our own family and a child to call us Mom and Dad. We can’t begin to understand how difficult this decision is for you. We are praying for strength and clarity during this time and know you will make the best decision. Thank you again for considering us to be the adoptive parents for your baby. It means the world to us. Sincerely, Mark & Kristin

    Matthew & Lauren - Texas

    By Brittany Carvalho • November 25, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , Thank you for taking the time to learn about us. We can only imagine the love, strength, and courage it takes to create an adoption plan, and we want you to know how much we admire and respect you for it. How do you find the words to write to someone you have not yet met, but already feel such deep love and gratitude for? The opportunity you are providing to help create a family that otherwise would not be is something we will never take for granted. We are truly honored to be considered as potential parents for your child, and we hold this moment with the utmost respect. We are Matthew and Lauren. We met in 2018, and on our very first date, we were already dreaming about having a family. We married in 2021 and quickly began planning to grow our little family. We have two dogs, Olly and Marvel, who we know would love a sibling to play with and protect. After learning that Lauren could not get pregnant, we realized that this was God’s way of guiding us toward something just as beautiful — adoption. Adoption holds deep meaning for us. Matt and his brother were both adopted as young children, and he has always known it would be part of his story, too. We are both incredibly grateful to have loving and supportive families behind us as we grow our family through adoption. From the very beginning, our parents, siblings, and extended families have cheered us on with open hearts. They are all so excited to welcome a new child into our lives and cannot wait to share in the joy. This book is a glimpse into our lives - who we are, the life we’ve built together, and the life we hope to share with a child. We hope you feel the love, laughter, and stability that surround us and our home. If we are chosen, we will raise your child with endless love, support, and a deep respect for where they came from- you! We will speak your name with honor and ensure that your child grows up knowing their story began with love. Sincerely, Matthew & Lauren

    Matthew & Brittni – Wisconsin

    By Brittany Carvalho • November 24, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , We Are Matt, Brittni, Braelyn, and Noah! So, who are we really? We are an "always on the go, planning countless trips to the waterpark" type of family. We're full of joy and laughter, and we treat every day as a blessing. Whether it's making a late-night ice cream run in our jammies or cozying up for bedtime snuggles, we savor the simple moments together. We're excited to add another member to our crew and share more Disney adventures, backyard campfires, morning coffee and muffins, and all the love we have to offer. Our journey hasn't always been easy, but it has deepened our relationship and strengthened our faith. From a young age, adoption was something we talked about, prayed for, and felt called to pursue. We've been blessed to have loved ones in our family who are adopted, and we know firsthand how love transcends all circumstances, unconditional and boundless. Coming from large families with close-knit sibling and parent relationships, we've always known we wanted children to fill our hearts and home. ļ»æ We have one biological child, Braelyn, who fills our lives with indescribable joy. After complications following Braelyn's birth and the life-saving measures that were needed, we are unable to carry another child. After years of prayers, opening our hearts to foster children, and difficult decisions, God led us to pursue adoption. In 2022, we were blessed beyond measure to welcome our sweet little guy, Noah, into our family through adoption. His arrival forever changed our lives in the best possible way, and we are so thankful to have him and his birth family as part of our story. As parents, our main goal has always been and will always be to embrace the uniqueness and individuality of our children. We are their biggest cheerleaders, helping them grow, thrive, and know the deep blessing they are to us. Each child is gifted with their own strengths and interests, and it is our mission to create a loving, safe space where their creativity can flourish and where they always feel comfortable sharing their hearts, passions, and dreams. We promise to provide a joyful, loving home where they can be silly, radiate their true selves, and feel completely at peace. We are beyond excited to continue this beautiful journey and add another child to our family, creating lasting memories and traditions that will span the years. We cannot begin to fully understand the selfless and brave choice you have made in choosing adoption for your child, but we hope that, as you get to know us, you will find comfort, support, and reassurance in each step of this journey. Sincerely, Matthew & Brittni

    Anthony & Claudia – Texas

    By Brittany Carvalho • November 23, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , First and foremost, we want to express our heartfelt gratitude for considering us as adoptive parents for your child. We can only imagine how difficult this decision must be, and we want you to know that your love and concern for your child’s future are deeply admired and appreciated. Our names are Claudia and Anthony. We have been together for eight years, married for six, and have known each other for more than twenty-five. Adoption has always been in our hearts. Our plan was to have a biological child first and then adopt, but God had a different plan. In 2020, we experienced a missed miscarriage, and despite trying again naturally, we were unable to conceive. We explored IVF and fertility treatments, but those were also unsuccessful. This path ultimately led us to adoption and to our greatest blessing, our daughter Lucianna, who joined our family in 2023. She is surrounded by love and brings us so much joy every single day. She cannot wait to be a big sister, and we cannot wait to grow our family again through adoption. If you choose us, your child will always know their adoption story and the incredible love and courage behind your decision. From an early age, they will know their adoption story and grow up knowing how truly loved they are by both you and us. We are committed to providing a nurturing, supportive, and joy-filled home. Your child will be surrounded by a large, loving family, supportive friends, and endless opportunities to learn, grow, and follow their dreams. Most importantly, they will always know they are deeply loved and cherished. Thank you again for considering us as part of your adoption plan. We are ready to welcome another child into our family with open arms and an abundance of love. With sincere appreciation and warmest regards, Anthony & Claudia

    Hello & Thank You , Although we haven't met yet, we have been praying for you. We can only begin to imagine the emotion of your situation, and hope that you feel loved and supported no matter where you are on this journey. We respect your strength and your selflessness for considering adoption. We understand that you want what is best for your precious baby, and we do too, whether with you, with us, or with another great family. We are Carrie and Garot, from Wisconsin, and we are honored to be considered to raise your child. After initially meeting in college, we have been happily married for six years. We were blessed with a pregnancy, but at 23 weeks experienced a rare complication that led to the heartbreaking loss of our daughter and placed Carrie in the ICU for a month. Thankfully, she has fully recovered; however, future pregnancies would still carry the same risk. In 2023, we welcomed our daughter Gianna home through adoption. We look forward to her becoming a big sister in the future and to them being able to share their adoption stories with each other. We believe adoption is not about finding a child for a family, but more about finding a family for the child. You will always be a part of your child's family, and we will always respect the decisions you make for your child. We want to thank you for considering us to be part of your story and your child's story. We promise that you will be honored, cherished, and celebrated each day of your child's life. In our home, your child will be loved unconditionally by us, our daughter, our dogs, our families, and our friends. We can't wait to read bedtime stories, visit the zoo, swing on the swings at the park by our home, attend their first recital or sporting event, bring them to their first day of school, and support them throughout all of their accomplishments. It is our goal that your child grows up happy, healthy, kind, and generous. We have always dreamed of having a large family, and we are looking forward to continuing to grow our family through adoption. We want to thank you for considering us as adoptive parents for your child! Sincerely, Garot & Carrie

Even though we have not met yet, we are already holding you and your child close in our hearts. We admire your strength and bravery, and we promise to be by your side every step of the way. If you choose us, we will welcome your child into our family and home with open arms and open hearts. We will protect and care for your child for the rest of our lives.

We are Iván, Angel, and our sweet daughter, Milana, who cannot wait to become a big sister! Our home is full of energy, love, and laughter. We also have three little barking babies who keep us on our toes and fill our days with endless smiles. Our family is as loving and close-knit as you could ever hope to find. Our path to having another child has been challenging. After trying for years to grow our family, we realized adoption was the right path for us. We are so grateful for this opportunity and ready to love and care for a child with all our hearts. If you choose us, we promise to give your child a safe, loving home filled with happiness and support. To us, life is meant to be lived fully and joyfully. We dance often, sing at the top of our lungs, and laugh nonstop. While we take our responsibilities seriously and have worked hard to build the life and family we cherish, we also believe in not taking ourselves too seriously. We find beauty in the simple things and make sure to slow down and savor them. Everything we do, we do as a team - and our grandmas and grandpas love joining in on the fun and being part of our family adventures. Thank you for taking the time to get to know us. We hold deep respect and gratitude for you as you consider this decision. We hope to have the honor of welcoming your child into our family and sharing a lifetime of love and joy. With love, Iván & Angel

    Hello & Thank You , It is nice to "meet" you. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this letter about us. Our names are Caitlin and Josh. We cannot begin to imagine what you may be feeling right now, but we know that you love your baby deeply and want what is best for them. We admire and respect you for your decision to create an adoption plan and recognize the courage and strength it takes to get here. We have been married for 10 years and have wanted to start a family for a long time. After going through IVF and experiencing losses, we felt God calling us to adoption. Two years ago, we were blessed to become parents through the adoption of our daughter. She is truly the answer to every prayer we have ever prayed. We would love for her to grow up with a sibling and feel called to adopt again. We have a wonderful open adoption with our daughter’s birth mom and hope to have that same kind of relationship with you if that is something you would like. We are Christian and very family-oriented with large, loving families close by. It is important to us that our daughter and any future children grow up surrounded by love and support from not just us but from our extended family as well. We are blessed to see our families often and to travel together for holidays and special occasions. It brings us such joy to watch our daughter play with her cousins and experience those special family moments. Our greatest hope is to raise our children to know and love the Lord above all else. We want them to be kind, strong, and self-sufficient with a good work ethic and confidence in who they are. We will always encourage them to discover their passions and will support them however we can so they can reach any goal they may have for the future. We are eager to share more with you. Our thoughts and prayers are with you through this journey. We pray for peace and health through the time ahead. We are happy to answer any questions that you may have about us. We appreciate your time and consideration and would love the opportunity to share more with you. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you on this journey. We are praying for your peace and health in the days ahead, and we would be honored to answer any questions you may have about us. Sincerely, Josh & Caitlin
