Letter to Birthparents

Dear Friend,

Thank you for reading our profile! We are so grateful for your interest in us, and hope that we will be able to meet you soon. We have been married for eight years, and have looked forward to the day we would be parents since day one.  We are so excited to be parents and can't wait for that blessing in our lives.

While at church I saw a man holding his beautiful baby girl, he was admiring her, smiling, and cuddling her to sleep, it was so precious I almost cried. I know that Matt will be that kind of Dad and I can't wait for a sweet baby to bless our home. I look forward to the day that we can admire our baby together.

After many prayers,lots of doctor appointments, and a failed a IVF cycle we knew that adoption was the right choice for us.  
We are so excited to start our family and hope that you will help us make our dream come true.

Amanda:
Hi I’m Amanda, here is a little more about me and my family. I am from a family of ten; I have three brothers and four sisters, and am the second to the youngest. I defiantly know how it is to be picked on, and I know how to pester back. Through the adoption process, my family has really stepped up to the plate and supported us in this decision. It is nice to know that I can call anyone of them at anytime and know that they will be there to listen. I am super close to my family and I speak to them often, sometimes everyday.

Matthew (Matt)
Hi I’m Matt, here are some things about my family.  I have two brothers and two sisters and I am ranked the youngest.  If you ask my siblings, they will say that I am spoiled but they are wrong.  I love to hang around my brothers and sisters and their families.  I always have fun with my nieces and nephews and love to play games with them.  I grew up in the church and embrace the gospel. We currently live close to my parents and love to spend time with them.  They are truly an example to me.  My brothers and sisters have always been supportive to my wife and I, especially when they heard that we have decided that we need to adopt to start our family.  I can’t wait for that day. 

Amanda about Matt:
Matt is the sweetest guy ever! He will drop anything he is doing to help a friend, or anyone for that matter. He still opens the car door for me, always kisses me good morning, and goodnight, he often tells me how much he loves me, and he holds my hand constantly, I love it! Matt is also a kid at heart, he is always competing with my nephews for the best toys. Even though we don’t have children yet, we are often found in the toy section of the store, looking at or buying something. Matt is very outgoing and does not have an enemy in this world.  I am so grateful for Matt, I know that he will be the best Dad ever and I’m so excited for that day!

Matt about Amanda:
Amanda is a very strong woman that I cherish with all of my heart.  I adore and admire her for all that she does in our marriage.  One of the things that I love to do with her is the simple phrase of “I Love You.”  It means the most in the world to me and I hope that she knows this.  She also is really good with children and I can tell by the way that she loves and cares for them that she will be the best mother.  She always comments to her family how much she loves them.  I really like that side of her.  There are several things that she is really good at like scrap booking, cooking, making great friends, having personal relationships with each of her family members,  to name a few. The one thing that I look forward to the most when I come home from work is the exchange of Love and a Kiss.  I hope that she knows how much I need her in my life and her sweet spirit in our marriage.  I am grateful for her strength in the gospel and always learn from her. Thank you Amanda.

We hope that this letter finds you well, if you want to know anything else about us, send us an e-mail at mattnmanda1@gmail.com we would love to get back to you.

I know that we will feel so blessed when a baby is placed in our arms, and we will thank you in our prayers everyday for making our dream come true. We want you to know that we pray for you daily, we pray for your health, for the baby's health, and for you to be blessed with the peace and comfort of your decision.

 
With Love,
Matt and Amanda
