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 were 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 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 weshare withn each other, our families, our faith, and the joy we have for the future journey we have prayed about. Whichever decision you decide, we want you to know 

that you will forever be in our prayers.


Sincerely,


Jose & Daniella

    • Our Story

    Jose and I met on the online dating site Match.com and spent the first couple of weeks chatting exclusively on the site. Eventually, we decided to meet up at La Madeleine, a nearby French restaurant. It was late at night after a busy day at work for both of us. The night ended short, and we both found ourselves asking when we could meet again.


    We exchanged phone numbers, and our conversations became endless. After dating for 16 months, we took our first trip to New York City, visiting attractions like the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, and the Rockefeller Center. Later, I found out he had the engagement ring with him throughout the trip. Tight security prevented his initial plan to propose, so he popped the question privately, and I happily said, "YES!"


    We got married in 2019 at a beautiful Country Club. During our wedding, our family and friends enjoyed a variety of desserts at our candy booth, took memorable photos at our photo booth, and listened to mariachis during dinnertime. The night ended with family and friends congratulating us with sparklers in hand. The night was filled with love, laughter, and joy.

    • When we purchased our home in 2020, we dreamed of starting a family. We are very excited to make this dream come true. Our house is located on the corner of a cul-de-sac in a gated community. It consists of four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and an open-concept living area with plenty of room for family and friends to gather. Our home also includes a built-in office, which is utilized for work & study time. Most of our time is spent hanging out in the living/dining areas, enjoying a home-cooked meal, or having a family movie night. In the Spring and Summer months, we enjoy frequent barbecues and staying cool in our in-ground pool, which is equipped with an alarm for safety. Our backyard also consists of a small covered patio with additional yard space to run around and play. We live in a very friendly community where many children are seen riding bikes, walking, and hanging out with friends.

    We are located just north of the city limits with easy access to nearby shopping centers and restaurants. Our community and surrounding areas include local parks and walking trails. We are just a few miles away from theme parks, bowling alleys, and movie theaters. There are so many other fun activities to do within our city that we can’t wait to do with our child. These places include a children’s museum, a zoo, and even a nearby aquarium.

    Jose's Family

    I grew up as a military brat, though I spent most of my adolescent years in Texas. I have an older brother with whom I’m very close, and we communicate frequently. We’re 18 months apart, and I’ve always admired him.


    My brother and his wife have two daughters, ages 2 and 1. They live about 30 minutes away, and we usually see them at unplanned brunches when our schedules align.


    My dad remarried in 2015, and he and his wife are retired. They live within the city limits, and we visit them monthly while staying in touch throughout the week. They love social gatherings and family barbecues and are excited about the arrival of another grandchild.


    My mom retired in 2019 and stays active in a variety of activities. We’re very close and talk daily. She lives just outside the city limits, and we see her bi-weekly. She’s always there for family and ready to help when needed. My mom shares a special bond with her granddaughters and is thrilled about the new addition to the family.

    • I come from a close-knit Hispanic family, with many relatives from Mexico, and some extended family still living there. I’m fluent in Spanish, and so are several family members. I also plan to teach our child Spanish.


    I grew up in South Texas with my parents and two sisters. My parents have been married for 47 years, are both retired, and love spending time with family. They stay active, running errands, gardening, and spending time with their daughters and grandchildren. They live about 4 hours away, and I talk to them daily, visiting every couple of months when we have weekends off.


    I’m the youngest in the family. My oldest sister is married with two sons, living near my parents in South Texas. My middle sister lives in North Texas with her daughter, who’s in college. We all make an effort to get together for holidays, birthdays, and special occasions.

    Our families also have a strong support system with aunts, uncles, and cousins who are excited to welcome a new little one into the fold.

    • Our Nieces & Nephews

    Jose and I deeply cherish our three nieces and two nephews, spanning ages from 19 down to just one. Witnessing their growth and being involved in their lives brings us immense joy. From offering guidance in life's lessons to cheering them on in sports and attending their concerts, we've cherished every moment spent with them. Our support also extends to their spiritual journey, from baptisms to confirmations and receiving the Eucharist. It's a privilege to have been chosen as godparents to one of our nieces, and we eagerly anticipate the arrival of a new cousin to deepen our family bonds even further.

    • Jose and I enjoy traveling and exploring different places. We have traveled to many states and have seen many different scenic areas. Whether it be to New York to visit the Statue of Liberty, Arizona to see the Grand Canyon, or Colorado to explore Pikes Peak, we cannot wait to make many memories and create new experiences with our child.


    Traveling is very important to us and something we will continue to do as the years go on. It strengthens family bonds and creates shared experiences. It has also allowed us to gain new perspectives, skills, and a better understanding of the world.

    • Holiday Traditions 

    We absolutely love the holidays and have traditions for each one! We decorate our house with themes and colors, like pink and red for Valentine's Day and green for St. Patrick's Day.


    For Easter, we visit family, go to church, have a barbecue, crack cascarones, and watch the kids hunt for Easter eggs. On Independence Day, we host a pool party with great food for family and friends.


    In November, we celebrate Dia De Los Muertos with an altar to honor loved ones who’ve passed. Thanksgiving is a big family feast, and it’s one of my favorite holidays to host because I love cooking!


    On Christmas Eve, we gather for a big meal with tamales, and on Christmas Day, we exchange gifts and relax. We have many other traditions, and sometimes we’re not sure which holidays we'll spend with each side of the family, as they live in different places. But what's most important is making memories, spending time with family, and capturing those moments in photos. We can’t wait to expand our family and create new traditions with our child.

    • We both come from a Catholic religious background, which will always be an important part of our lives. We believe in the Bible, trust in God, go to church, believe in the power of prayer, spread his word, and try to follow in the Lord’s footsteps. We plan on raising our child with the same religious beliefs, teaching them about God and having faith.

    Hao & Amy – Texas

    By Brittany Carvalho • December 19, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , First off, let's introduce ourselves. Our names are Amy, Hao, and our not so little man James Paul. We want you to know how grateful we are to you for looking at our book. Our goal is for you to get to know who we are in an honest and real way. Adoption has a complex variety of feelings for all parties involved, especially for you. We can't begin to understand the emotional and overwhelming circumstances you have had to face in making these difficult decisions. We want you to know we support you and think that what you are doing is selfless and generous beyond comprehension. From an early age, I knew carrying a child to full term would be highly unlikely. So, when we met, having children was a part of our early conversations. We always wanted a family and knew adoption was going to be how we would become parents. This led us to adopt our beautiful and sweet son, James. We have so much more love to share with another child, and James is waiting with open arms and a welcoming smile. Our upbringing has significantly shaped who we are today, including our parenting style and how we plan for our future. Both of our parents are still married, and observing their relationship through both happy and challenging times has taught us the importance of commitment in maintaining a long-lasting marriage. Our family includes no shortage of caring aunts, fun uncles, and many young cousins to grow up with. One thing you can be certain of is DOTING GRANDPARENTS!! We are blessed that we can go to anyone in our family for guidance, advice, and support. You could not ask for a more dedicated crew of family members. We promise to you that we will honor you in the way you deserve. We will share with you the progress of your wonderful and cherished child's life. You'll be part of their life story from their earliest days to the questions that arise with growing curiosity. Your role will always be respected, valued, and cherished. We hope that our book gives you insight into who we are as people and as a family. Our very different strengths will lead to us raising well-rounded children. Together, we will teach them the importance of acceptance and kindness to those around them while still allowing them to be independent and able to stand up for themselves. Hao and I share the greatest hope of raising our children and providing them with safety and security, all with an embarrassing amount of love and affection. Thank you for considering us; we could not do it without you. Sincerely, Hao & Amy

    Mike & Tiffany – Texas

    By Brittany Carvalho • December 18, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , First, we want to thank you so much for considering us to be the parents of your child and for taking the time to learn a little about our lives! We can't imagine what a difficult time this must be for you, though we don't know what you are feeling. However, we do know that we admire your courage and strength! We are Mike and Tiffany, a fun loving couple from Texas who have been together 10 years and married almost 9! We spent many years trying to conceive a baby on our own, and with no luck, we didn’t want to wait to grow our family any longer. We chose adoption rather than going through IVF and were blessed with our first son in 2022. The experience we have had with his adoption has been so wonderful, and we can’t wait to give him a brother or sister. We have always wanted a big family, as both of ours are relatively small, and we are so grateful for this adoption opportunity because, without it, we wouldn’t be able to have that. Tiffany is a stay-at-home mom currently and will continue to do so. She loves being able to be so involved with raising our children and growing a special bond from the beginning. Also, her parents and grandparents live next door to us, so they will always be surrounded by love and family. We promise to provide your child with a safe, loving home with fun adventures and a wonderful education. We will always be honest with them about where they came from, how much you love them, and how that love brought them to us! We will keep you and your child in our prayers, and no matter your decision, we wish you the best on this emotional journey. Love, Mike & Tiffany

    Andrew & Julie - Iowa

    By Brittany Carvalho • December 14, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , Hello, and thank you for taking the time to consider us as adoptive parents for your baby. We are so excited to be adopting and bringing a child into our family! We can’t begin to understand the weight of this choice and want you to know that your child's well-being is our top priority. Please understand that we wish you and your child all the best no matter what you choose. We hope this book gives you a glimpse of our family. We are Andrew and Julie. We have been together for eight years and married for five. After five years of infertility struggles, multiple fertility clinic visits, and miscarriages, we are ready to give our unconditional love to a child and expand our family through the miracle of adoption! Education, love, and respect are the core values we hold dear. We will encourage your child to explore their passions, embrace their heritage, and pursue their dreams. Our home will be a place of unconditional love, where open communication and understanding are paramount. We are prepared to become parents to a precious child and can’t wait to share our love of family with them. Many family members and friends are excitedly waiting to welcome a new baby to cherish. We want you to feel welcome and hope to get to join our families together for all the love. Your child will have the support of a large, connected family. Thank you for taking the time to read through our book, your consideration means the world to us. We wish you strength and courage during this journey. Sincerely, Andrew & Julie

    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

    Will & Lorena - Texas

    By Brittany Carvalho • December 11, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , We are beyond grateful for you considering us as prospective parents. Please know that what is best for you and the baby is the most important thing throughout this process. We can only imagine the difficulties that come with this decision, but please know that your child will be loved without qualification. We are so excited to begin our adoption journey and bring a child into our family. We are Will & Lorena, and we have been together for almost 7 years. Our path to adoption starts with Will being adopted himself at birth and from a young age, knowing that this was always going to be a part of his family plan. As we began to discuss having a family, Lorena was concerned about getting pregnant due to her infertility diagnosis, so turning to adoption was an easy call for us to start our family. The values that are most important to our household are love, kindness, and respect. Ensuring that, above all else, people are treated equally will be core to the teachings we share with our child. We want to encourage them to be curious and welcome diversity in all forms and to do so with a smile. Both of us love to laugh, and we want our child’s life to be filled with those unforgettable moments. To us, adoption is a beautiful journey shared by all parties involved. We are lucky to have extremely supportive friends and family to guide and join us on this journey. With Will’s own experience, including his relationship with his birth mother, we know we are lucky to have tremendous examples to mentor us along our own path as we welcome a child into our family. Should you choose us to welcome your child into our family, they will be unconditionally surrounded by love and warmth. We appreciate you taking this time to consider us as prospective parents, and should you choose us, we are prepared to listen to, support, and honor your wishes throughout this process. Sincerely, Will & Lorena

    Michael & Christi – Texas

    By Brittany Carvalho • December 10, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about us. While we cannot say we understand the emotions, decisions, and journey you are facing, we recognize and honor the enormous gift you are sharing with a family like ours. We are Christi and Michael. We have been together for 6 years and married for 4. When we first started dating, I shared with Michael that biological children might not be a possibility for me due to the reproductive issues I had experienced. When Michael stated without hesitation that he was open to adoption, I knew he was someone special. After trying the recommended fertility treatments to ensure we were never left wondering, “What if?” we started our adoption journey feeling relieved and confident this was the path meant for us. Part of what drew us to each other was how we viewed our families and our desires to have a family of our own. Both of our lives have been touched by adoption in various ways. Therefore, we knew we were ready to start our adoption journey. In 2023, we welcomed our daughter, Isabel (Izzy), into our lives through adoption. Izzy has brought so much joy, laughter, love, and fun to our lives ever since. We are so grateful to have been chosen as Izzy’s adoptive parents and are blessed to guide her on this journey of life. We believe it is important for your child to understand their adoption story from the beginning and look forward to letting them know how truly special they and their birth family are to us. We welcome an open adoption as we value the relationship between a child and their birth family. Children can never have too many people who love and support them. We have established a small group of friends who have young, adopted children and enjoy meeting them throughout the year. We believe it will be valuable for our children to have the opportunity to be around other adopted children throughout their lives. There are adoptees in that group, and we talk openly with them about their experience as adoptees to help us gain insight into their perspective. With a large family nearby, your child will be loved and surrounded by many family members, friends, and a faith community. In addition to providing your child with unconditional love, we hope to instill the qualities of honesty, integrity, faith, kindness, the value of family, and perseverance. Both of us come from hard working families where we each learned to be independent, responsible, and self-sufficient, knowing we always had our families supporting us. We appreciate your time and continue to pray for you and the decisions that lie ahead. You are a beautiful person, and you are giving an invaluable gift. We hope you feel the love and peace you deserve. Sincerely, Michael & Christi

    Aaron & Alex – California

    By Brittany Carvalho • December 9, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , There's no way for us to begin understanding your life, struggles, and victories. Hopefully, we can play a part in one another's stories- sharing and growing through all the ups and downs that this world has to offer. Know that if chosen, we will love your child unconditionally and fiercely protect and shelter them all the day of our lives. This whole process feels a little surreal, and finding the perfect words to say them is a challenge. Thank you, though, for even looking at this book and taking a peek into our lives. We want to reassure you that we have the utmost respect and admiration for you, regardless of the path you choose. We are confident that whomever you choose to raise your baby will be the perfect fit! Regardless of where each of our lives goes, we want you to know you are continuously in our hearts and minds. After struggling with infertility and going through several fertility treatments, we made the decision not to pursue IVF. We felt like God was pulling on our hearts to bring someone into our lives in a different way. After much prayer and conversation, we decided adoption was the clear path, and we're excited to grow our family this way. Following the completion of our home study and application with Adoption Angels, we were in disbelief one morning when Alexandra took a pregnancy test, and it was positive. However, during our daily evening walk that day, we both knew that we wholeheartedly wanted to continue to pursue adoption. Alexandra comes from a large family where many of her brothers and sisters are close in age, her brother Russ being a mere 18 months apart from her. Growing up so close in age, we were less siblings and more partners and crime- each other’s best confidants and adventure buddies as we traveled the world with the military. The loyalty, utter love, and connection we feel toward each other are hard to explain, and to this day, my siblings and my brother's wife are my best friends. We would be over the moon excited to raise children who would experience this bond and feel the same love and closeness. It’s becoming clearer to us every day that this is the path God has been leading us on all along. Know that no matter how a child comes into our family, we plan to love them exactly as we love our son, Adrian- with every fiber of our being! Thank you again so much for reading our story!

    Hello & Thank You , Our names are Brandon and Melody, and we are so glad to meet you! We can’t fully understand the weight of the decision you’re facing in making an adoption plan, but we deeply admire your courage and strength. What you are considering would bring immense joy to a family who has likely spent years longing for a child to love. Please know we are praying for you and your child, and that God will grant you peace in whatever decision you make. Through this letter and album, we’d like to share a bit about ourselves and why we’ve chosen adoption. We met and married in southern California and have been married for 12 years. Since moving to Texas, we’ve built a loving home and community here. We believe God called us to be parents, and while our path to parenthood has been unexpected, adoption has always been on our hearts. Melody was adopted at birth and understands the incredible blessings of adoption firsthand. After five years, many tests, and three failed IUI attempts, we began pursuing adoption. In December 2023, we were blessed to adopt our son, Aiden, and our lives have been forever changed. Now, we hope to adopt again to share our love with another child and allow Aiden to grow up with a sibling. If chosen to be your child’s adoptive parents, we promise to raise them in a loving Christian home, teaching Biblical principles and morals. We’ll provide opportunities for them to grow, learn, thrive, and develop a deep sense of love, respect, and responsibility, all while offering unconditional love and support. Additionally, Melody can uniquely answer any questions your child may have about their adoption as they grow. We are surrounded by a large, loving network of family, friends, and a supportive church community who will joyfully welcome your child into our lives. Melody’s experience as an adopted child makes her especially sensitive to the importance of understanding one’s roots. If chosen, we hope to develop an ongoing relationship with you and walk alongside you in this journey. For years, we prayed for a child to join our family, and God’s answer came when Aiden came into our lives. We are excited to see what He has planned next for our family’s growth. Thank you for taking the time to consider us as parents. Please know we are praying for you, your child, and your decision, whatever it may be. Sincerely,  Brandon & Melody

    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
