Our Letter to the Expectant Parents

Our profile book has been printed and shipped to Bethany's office.  To make the book a little more personal, we wrote a letter to the expectant parents.  Thought you would like to read it:

Hello!

Thank you for taking time to look at our book.  We also want to thank you for considering us to be the adoptive parents of your child.  We hope that you have been able to learn a little about us and what our lives our like.

Since deciding in December that we wanted to adopt, we have been thinking about you, the expectant parents, and the baby you carry.  We are so excited and thankful that you have made the decision to make an adoption plan for your child.  We are sure that getting to this point has not been easy for you.  We pray for you and your baby often.

We cannot wait to open our home to a baby.  We have been waiting for this day for about 3 years because we have not been able to have biological children. 

We want you to know that we will love your baby so much, and that all of our extended family is equally thrilled to welcome a new baby.  We will continue to pray for you throughout the rest of your pregnancy, your labor & delivery, and for all the days that will follow.

Jeremiah and Amanda
