Dear Birthmother,
We are Lauren and Chris. We know that we haven’t met you yet, but we are already so thankful for you. We can’t begin to express our gratitude that you are reading this letter and getting to know us. You, your health, mind, and happiness are in our prayers each and every day.
We both grew up in North Texas, and we began dating in 2016 while we were both in college in Arkansas. Shortly after we began dating we figured out we grew up not to far away from each other and regularly played at the same park as children. We truly believe our paths were meant to cross. We got married at a local chapel on a beautiful December day in 2020. Our marriage is full of love, laughter, and trips to Disney World and the beach. We also have a spoiled German Shepherd mix named Ramsey. She always keeps us on her toes and loves being around her human cousins.

Lauren loves working with kids as a speech pathologist at an elementary school. Kids gravitate towards her and she cares for them as if they were her own. Lauren is nurturing, caring, and has the biggest heart. She will be a great mother because she is such a great wife, and friend.
Chris always puts others before himself and would give away the shirt off of his back without hesitation. He is goofy and spontaneous and loves spending time with family and close friends that have become family. Chris is such a light and is the epitome of 1 Corinthians 4-7. He is patient and so kind. He puts his heart into everything that he does. Chris is a middle school and highschool football coach. He takes care of his players as individuals first and the sport second. His students love him and it is evident. He is going to be an amazing father.
We promise to love your child, nurture them, and provide them with a safe home. We promise to always show them and make sure they know that they are so incredibly special. We also promise to make sure they know how much you love them and how amazing you are. We will raise them as children of God and they will know His love. They will also be cherished by our family and friends who are eagerly anticipating their arrival.
Sincerely,
Lauren and Chris

Hello! We are Josh and Amy.
We live in the wonderful Texas Hill Country. Josh and I have been married for 10 years and it’s been a whirlwind of fun. We have one biological daughter who is 8 and ever so sassy. Her name is Kayleigh and she is so loving, kind, and smart. She has asked to be a big sister for so long and asks almost daily if we know anything. She will be over the moon excited when we are blessed and she will be an amazing big sister.
Josh and I both serve the community through our jobs and enjoy our calling. Josh is a full time Lineman for the local electric co-op for close to 19 years and a Captain in the Volunteer Fire Department. I work full time for Fire Department as a Firefighter Paramedic in our town and have grown up in this department. To be able to help people in their lowest moments is what it’s all about while giving back and serving the community we have grown up in. We are very grateful for our department family and our small town community who have shown us support in so many ways along this journey. The majority of both of our families are local and have supported us every step of the way. We are truly very blessed!!!
To learn more about Josh and Amy click here!
Please let us start by saying thank you for your consideration and trust in us. We promise to love, support, and always remain faithful in this journey. After struggling with infertility for the last several years God has guided us down the Adoptions pathway. We have never been more scared of the rejection, as well as the fear of the unknown. However, we see the support and strength that has guided and it keeps us strong as we continue forward. We know that through Him all things are possible and He will never give us more than we can handle. We look forward to this journey with you as we wait this blessing!
Dearest Expectant Mother,
We are Mark and Lillian. We are so honored and humbled that you are considering us as adoptive parents. You are already so loved and appreciated by us for being on this difficult journey, and we are praying for you and your precious little one. We were diagnosed with unexplained infertility and were unable to conceive for over 4 years, but we strongly believe God has bigger plans for us, which is why He has led us to adoption and you.
We don’t always understand God’s timing, but His timing is perfect. He has graced us with a miracle through IVF, and we are expecting a baby boy at the end of February, which means the world to us. However, God continues to put adoption in our hearts, and we still pray to adopt a baby girl.

We cannot wait to love this child, whole-heartedly, and provide them with the most happy, loving, and supportive home.

We will always honor your courage, and communicate the love you hold for this little one, should you choose us
With Lots of Love,
Mark & Lillian
Hello Birth Mother!
We are Doug, Laura, and Henry. Whatever brought you to this page we are so glad you are here! We have been praying for you and your sweet baby, and know that the decision to place he or she up for adoption was not an easy one to make.
We have been married for more than 13 years and adopted our son 9 years ago from Florida. He radically changed our life in such an amazing way and we LOVE being parents to him. We thank God every day for him. We live in the suburbs in Texas and are lucky to have so many family members live within a short drive from us. One of our favorite things to do is spend time with both sets of our parents, our siblings, and Henry’s 6 cousins. We live on a one acre lot and love spending time in our backyard watching Henry swim, jump on the trampoline, and play in his treehouse.
To learn more about Doug, Laura and Henry click here!
Laura has been a stay at home mom since Henry was born and plans to continue doing so until our children are raised. Laura LOVES being a mom and being involved in all of Henry’s school activities. Doug has worked at his company for over 10 years and he loves his job. He’s very fortunate to have a job that has a great work life balance where he doesn’t have to work at night or weekends. Henry just turned 9 years old and he is a very social kid who loves playing outside with his friends and cousins. He is VERY excited about becoming a big brother one day!
For fun, we like getting together with family, love going on vacations to the beach and mountains, and just spending time outside with Henry and his friends. One of our favorite things to do is host friends and family at our house for special occasions like Christmas, birthday parties, and our annual 4th of July fireworks party. We are also very involved at our local church where we volunteer in the children’s ministry.
Thank you for taking time to read a little about us! We know God has a wonderful plan for your baby and we would love to be a part of their story!
Doug, Laura, & Henry
Dear brave Birth Mom,
To introduce ourselves, we are Bradley, Alexa, Adalynn and Emelia! Thank you so much for taking the time to learn more about us. Our story began in 2015 on a Texas Honky Tonk dance floor. We bonded over our love for country dancing, live music and our big dreams. We quickly began attending church together and shared our hopes to have a family someday, these conversations included our dream and desire to adopt. We married in 2017 and a few across Texas moves later we were blessed to settle down in our wonderful family home in 2020 near our immediate family members.
Bradley is a senior financial controller at a manufacturing plant and aspires to become a company wide leader someday. He is a hard-worker and cares for our family incredibly well. He far exceeds any hopes and prayers Alexa had for a father for her children and is the definition of a hands-on, loving father. Alexa spent the last 8 years of her career as a consultant for a large company focusing on supporting state governments to navigate health and human services challenges like child protection, health and safety and educational advancement. She recently left her full-time position to spend more time with her family in her dream role as a “stay at home mama”. Alexa keeps the home running and loves our children whole-heartedly. Alexa is excited to be embarking on a homeschool journey while also keeping the kids active in social activities including sports (currently soccer and dance), music and educational classes and cooperatives.
To learn more about Bradley and Alexa click here!
Adalynn was born in March 2020, she is creative, full of energy and absolutely loves people. Her favorite thing to do is make friends, sing and give hugs. She is so excited to become a big sister all over again! Emelia was born in 2022 and is just starting to show us her goofy personality. She loves to eat anything and everything and she looks up to her big sister in every way. We absolutely love being parents and embrace all of the craziness that comes our way day to day!
We try not to take life too seriously and frequently “laugh in the chaos”. For fun, we take trips to the park, aquariums, the mall and travel to spend precious quality time with our extended families. We are active members in our local church and have a community of spiritual family with like-minded couples and their many children. It’s always fun when we get together!
We put our faith in our Savior and we know that His divine plan has led you here, reading this message today. We are in awe of your strength and forever grateful that you are choosing this path. We sincerely thank you for considering us and we cannot wait to meet you and the beautiful blessing you will be bringing into this world.
With love,
Bradley, Alexa, Adalynn and Emelia
Dear Birthmother,
Ever since was a little girl I have always hoped that one day I would be blessed to adopt because that is also my story, I was adopted at birth. Growing up I had many questions about my birth family and the circumstances around it and I admire my parents so much for meeting every question and curiosity with love, support, and affirming I was truly loved by both my birthmother and my parents. Growing up I never went a day without love, affection, and support and that is exactly what I hope to give to a child one day.
For work-I run a very successful catering company with my family that allows me to mostly work from home with lots of flexibility. I have been in my field for almost 20 years and plan to until retirement. While I may be single, I have a very large and supportive family that is excited for me and the possibility of becoming a mother. Adoption has always been on my heart and the last few years I felt God was calling me to start the process to adopt and so I have been preparing my heart and home for that day.
To view Ambers photo book click here!
For fun-I love spending time outdoors in nature, walking with my dogs, or cooking. Growing up I was fortunate to learn a lot of fun activities between my dads love for outdoors, fishing, camping, and my mothers love for art, theater, and gardening. I love reading, going to the movies, local events, and enjoy spending time with my family and close friends. I love holidays and growing up my mother made each one so special and I cant wait to carry that tradition on. I was raised in church and still attend and serve locally. My faith has only deepened the older I get and I was very fortunate to be raised in a Church that was all about love and the grace of God.
I am also deeply passionate about giving back to my community and sharing my knowledge and consulting with other women about starting their own businesses and helping them with the tools they need to become independent, self sufficient, and successful.
I can not imagine what you are going through and the decisions ahead but know that are you not alone, that myself and others are praying for you and that God works all things together for good.
Lastly, know that if you do make the decision to place your child with me, that they will receive unconditional love and support from me, my family, and friends. They will be protected and provided for, prayed for, they will be raised to know God and His love, they will have every opportunity that I can provide for them and a life full of love.
With love,
Amber
Hello! We are Elizabeth & Casey and we have lots of love to give! Unable to conceive naturally, we have been looking forward to adoption for many years. In the past few years, we have built our lives around preparing an environment for our family to grow in. One that fosters love, spirituality, ideas, activities, travel, and creativity by finding excellent schools, the ideal family neighborhood, flexible jobs and building a home to accommodate an active family. We have also surrounded ourselves with a solid support system of family and friends. The child that we hope to be blessed with, will be nurtured, loved and cared for unconditionally.
Our marriage is based on friendship, growing and learning together, with Christ at the center of it all! We love laughing, hiking, traveling, music, dance, spending time with family and friends, and working on creative projects like building furniture, making art and cooking. We enjoy attending all of our neighborhood’s social gatherings and school events. Whatever we are doing, one can usually find us together. We love each other and place a strong value on supporting one another’s ambitions, dreams and creative ideas. We are so excited at the hope to grow our family and share all that we have been blessed with.

It is with gratitude and respect that we write this letter and we are incredibly humbled to be considered. Our prayers are with you, and the family and friends that love and support you. We have much admiration for you, and the bravery it takes to consider giving the gift of life and providing the gift of parenthood. We pray for your peace, strength and clarity as you pour over family profiles and make the best choice for you and your child.
Thank you for taking the time and energy to learn more about us!

Dear Birthmother,
First of all, you are amazing! Thank you so much for choosing to participate in the miracle of adoption and for considering us as adoptive parents! We understand what an incredibly difficult, and selfless thing it is to place your child into the care of someone else, and we admire your strength and your desire to find a loving family for him or her. Know that we will tell them about you often; the incredible woman who gave them the gift of life, and did everything she could to ensure a bright future for them.
We wanted to take just a moment and tell you a little about us! We are Callie and Matt, and we are very much looking forward to welcoming a baby into our family! We have been married for 10 years and we feel so blessed to be able to say that we are each other’s best friend. Callie is a former Teacher turned Software Engineer who loves kids and always seems to attract them wherever we go! Matt is an Estimator in the commercial construction industry and has a blast goofing off with our niece and nephews whenever we have the chance to see them!
We desired children soon after we married and after being unable to conceive naturally, we decided to move forward with infertility treatment. We experienced one miscarriage, and unfortunately have been unable to conceive again. One evening, a few years into our infertility journey, we surprised each other by both expressing that we had been feeling called to adopt. We then decided together that whether we were able to have a biological child or not, we were both determined to also adopt.
In addition to the two of us, we also have two fur-babies, Oscar (a 12-year-old miniature long-haired dachshund), and Pistol (a 10-year-old miniature Australian Shepherd). We live together in a 3 bed, two-and-a-half bath home nestled in a small, established neighborhood. We have a living room, dining room, and music room downstairs, as well as an office/game room upstairs, and a large shaded backyard with a pool that backs up to a hike and bike trail.
We both love the outdoors including hiking, biking, camping, and winter sports like snowboarding and skiing, hosting game nights, and we both enjoy music (both playing and listening). We also love to travel and explore new landscapes and cultures. When we’re not out exploring together Callie enjoys creative hobbies (like painting, drawing, and sewing), learning new skills, and reading; and Matt is always keeping busy with yard projects, golfing, rooting for his favorite teams (Astros Baseball & Aggie Football), putting together puzzles and Legos, and cooking on his grill. He also enjoys hunting and fishing when he can. These are all things we hope to share with our children.
We both come from large families and we love spending time together, especially during the holidays! Thanksgiving is always a family affair on Callie’s side, and we rotate to determine who will host each year. There is laughter, family walks, football, and of course lots of food! For Christmas, we tend to split our time between our extended families, with a family Christmas on Callie’s side about a week before the big day, and then spending Christmas Eve with Matt’s extended family which is always a ton of fun with games, pot luck goodies, and Christmas cheer! When December rolls around each year, we always have someone hide a pickle-shaped Christmas ornament in our tree, and on Christmas day the first one to find it gets to open the first gift. It is a German tradition that we love to take part in.
Most importantly we want you to know that we love you and we love the sweet child that you are bringing into this world. We will support you, cheer you on and pray for you every step of the way and in whatever choice you choose to make. We promise to raise our children in a loving home built on Christian beliefs and rooted in God’s wisdom. We attend a Methodist church near our home and we feel so blessed to have found such an amazing congregation to worship and fellowship with. Life groups have been a big part of our spiritual life and as we become more active within our congregation, we are excited to again join a close-knit group of people to fellowship, study, work through struggles, and celebrate blessings with. We are also excited to serve others through mission work, volunteer groups, and community outreach events. We want our children to know without a doubt that along with our love, they are also loved by God, unconditionally, and that His grace is never ending.
Thank you so much again for choosing adoption, for taking the time to read our letter, and for considering our family for such an incredible honor and responsibility. We can’t wait to get to know you, but in the meantime, please know that we are praying for you and your precious baby. Prayers for comfort, strength, courage, peace, health, and direction. It cannot be said enough, You Are Amazing!
Prayerfully yours,
Callie and Matt
We’re Sam and Rebekah, and we’ve always wanted kids! We met in high school, fell in love, got married in 2007 and wanted to jump right into building our family: Rebekah the stay-at-home mom, and Sam the working dad. Things didn’t quite work out in that pursuit, but the desire never left us. Don’t get us wrong, it was a great journey! Sam earned his bachelor’s and now works as a Enterprise Solution Architect (fancy way of saying programmer) while Rebekah earned her bachelor’s, then her master’s degree, and worked as a Project Manager, but we both really wanted a home full of kids!
Our years together have been full of peaks and valleys, literally and figurately! Both of us are originally from Alaska. In fact, Sam grew up in a town so small the only way in or out was by boat or plane. We loved Alaska and still have family there but have grown roots here in Texas. Sam loves the heat, and Rebekah loves being able to go for walks anytime of the year without fear of ice or moose! Our families are slowly but surely migrating to Texas and are all excited about adding new members to the family! We both come from big families.
In July 2022, we were blessed with a precious baby girl named Lydia. We finalized her adoption at the end of 2022. She is amazing and fits into the big sister role like a pro! She’s mommy little helper for sure and has a very caring, sweet personality. In April 2023, we were blessed with another sweet baby girl: Elizabeth. She is a very social, happy girl who loves to have all of us around and wants to do everything her big sister does! Elizabeth is a very intensely focused girl who can sit and study a toy for quite a long time! They have very different personalities already, and they are both so much fun!! We finalized Elizabeth’s adoption at the end of 2023. These girls are a joy to everyone they are around.
We absolutely love being parents!
Rebekah now has her dream job: stay-at-home mom. And Sam works from home most of the time, so we get lots of sweet family time.
We absolutely cannot believe God has given us these two girls after all these years! We would love to have a few more precious babies if God allows! We’re in awe of God’s goodness.
If we have learned anything during our many years of marriage, it is God’s unyielding love and care for us and others. He has always walked with us, whether it was during the happy times or the tough times. It is on that foundation that we have found stability and strength. Basically, God is good. That’s why we have absolutely no doubt that God is and will continue to guide you as you think through this difficult and challenging decision. And, if you happen to choose us, we guarantee you we would be blessed beyond measure!
Much Love,
Sam and Rebekah
Dear Birthmother,
We think it is wonderful that you are choosing adoption for your precious little one. While we don’t know your situation, we know you are making a sacrifice to give your child the best life possible. We are praying for our Lord to comfort you as you travel this journey and for him to reassure you every step of the way. We cannot imagine all the feelings and thoughts you are going through and pray for peace and calm during and after your pregnancy. We appreciate you taking the time to read about us and feel honored should you consider us as adoptive parents.
We both grew up in small towns in West Texas and met during college in 2005. We got married our last semester of college and have now been married over 15 years. We moved to the DFW area in 2015 so Justin could complete his Masters at a seminary. It was a leap of faith that changed the trajectory of our lives. We had thought about moving back to West Texas after his graduation, but Justin was offered a pastoral position at our church that was a perfect match for his skills and temperament. He has worked for 8 years at the church in various roles. Currently, he oversees small groups, Bible studies, and all classes offered to church members. He is a great listener and cares deeply about people. Meeting with people and hearing how God is working in their lives brings him so much joy.
To learn more about Justin and Rebecca click here to see their Photo Book!
Becca currently works as a billing analyst for a company that specializes in intralogistics solutions. She also spends a good chunk of time serving with Justin at our church. She supports Justin as a pastor and as we lead a small group together. Becca also serves on the worship team and leads a small group of middle school girls on Sunday evenings.
We are opposites in many ways, but we both love spending time together. Some of our favorite things to do are visit local coffee shops, try new restaurants, explore areas of our city we haven’t been before, go for walks, create art projects, and spend time with friends and family. We enjoy being married, but we have felt for many years that our family is not complete. We do not have any living children; one was lost to miscarriage and another to a kidney disease our son developed in utero. While we are not able to have biological children of our own, we feel called to adopt. We love the image that adoption represents of God adopting us as his own children. Becca’s sister and brother-in-law recently adopted a son and our family has been overjoyed by the addition to the family. We love the idea of him having a cousin who has that in common and hope that it will create a strong bond between them. We will love and cherish any child placed in our home and look forward to creating wonderful memories as a family.
Sincerely,
Justin and Becca
Dear Expecting Momma,
We are Blair and Courtney, and we are so thankful for the opportunity to be considered for your baby’s adoptive family. We understand that this is a very hard but extremely brave and selfless decision and would like to let you know that we have been praying for you and your baby for some time now. We would love for you to get to know us, we live in a small country town just outside of Fort Woth with our dogs, cats and longhorns. We have been together for almost five years and have been married for three. Before we got married, we always had adoption in our hearts as something we would like to do someday, after getting married we realized quickly that conceiving a child of our own would be difficult. This made our decision clearer, and we realized that God put adoption in our hearts for a reason all along.
To learn more about Blair and Courtney click here!
Blair is silly, loving, and is a very hard worker. He is a senior manager of talent acquisition in the financial service industry. He enjoys watching and playing sports, spending time with family and friends, and being outdoors. He would make the perfect dad because of his fun-loving personality, drive to provide and he already has the dad jokes and dad dance moves down!
Courtney is sweet, caring, and charismatic. She is a hairdresser who uses her artistic talent to make her clients feel and look beautiful. She enjoys Live music, crafting, gardening and spending time with family and friends. She would make an amazing mom because of her positivity and nurturing disposition.
Together our goal is to build a strong rooted family centered around Jesus and love. We are excited to one day teach our future child about respect, hard work, and kindness and to raise an amazing young man or woman. We look forward to getting to know you and to answer any questions you may have, God Bless.
Hello! We are Randy, Jessica and Finn and we would like to thank you for taking the time to get to know us a little better. We know that you are making an incredibly difficult decision, and we respect you so much for wanting to give your child the best possible life. We pray that God will help guide you through this journey, to help you make the best decision for you and your child, and to give you peace in your decision.
We were over the moon to become parents to our son Finn through the beautiful gift of adoption in 2018. He has been such a blessing to our family, and we are excited to grow our family through adoption once again.
To see Randy and Jessica’s photo book click here!
Jessica works for an airline and has the flexibility to work from home a couple days a week. Randy is a stay-at-home parent and has loved the opportunity to be home with Finn while he is young. Finn is in Pre-K and is looking forward to starting Kindergarten later this year! He has such a sweet, fun, and friendly personality. He loves people and has truly never met a stranger!
As a family we love to travel when we have the opportunity. We also love being outdoors and going on adventures even if it is just to our local park or splash pad. We also love to play games and we frequently have family dance parties in the living room to Disney music or other Kids radio.
Thank you for taking the time to get to know us. We would love the opportunity to get to know you through this process. We are praying for you, and we wish you the best in whatever choice you make.
Randy and Jessica
Dear Birthmother,
We are grateful for this opportunity to introduce ourselves and tell you about our family. We are Chase and Sarah. We always knew we wanted our own family as both of our families have been extremely important in our lives, but due to infertility we are unable to have children of our own. We recognize the choice you are making is one of the most difficult decisions that will be faced in your lifetime. Entrusting your child to be raised by someone else requires incredible bravery, strength, honesty and most of all, love for your child. We feel extremely honored to be considered as adoptive parents.
We have been married for 7 years. We both grew up in a small town in Texas and attended the same church and school. We met in middle school and became best friends before we started dating in high school. We were married once we graduated college. Chase loves any sports and hunting and fishing. Sarah loves crafting and cooking (her cheesecakes were one of the reasons we started dating). Together we spend a lot of time with each of our families, they live 5 minutes apart from each other. We love to work out together and are very active. We travel the world, Chase’s family traveled when he was younger, and this is something we will continue to do as a family. When we are not traveling, we love to spend time with our dog, Maverick, who loves to play frisbee. We attend our local church regularly and have a very close relationship with the other couples in our community group and gym group who are all in similar life stages.
To view Chase and Sarah’s book click here!
Sarah graduated from SFA with her master’s in accounting. She is currently working as a senior accountant for an Oil and Gas firm. Chase graduated from Texas A&M with an engineering degree and is currently working in logistics and warehousing with a large retail company. Chase’s job is very flexible, and he works remotely 3-5 days a week.
Our promise is to provide a safe, God centered home for our family. We will love, be devoted, nurture, and cherish time with any child we are blessed to raise. We trust God has good plans beyond what we could imagine for our future family.
Please know you are wholly and wonderfully loved by us and our Lord and Savior!
Sincerely,
Chase and Sarah
Dear Birthmother,

From the very beginning of this journey, God has continued to direct our paths, and we can’t wait to meet you and thank you in person for the blessing you are entrusting to us. We have been praying as a family for the health and safety of you and your baby and that when the time is right, you will find us and have complete peace about it. We completely admire and appreciate your bravery, selflessness, and gracious act of love you would being sharing with our family. Not only is this baby a blessing, but she would also be the answer to many prayers.
Thank you for giving us this opportunity to introduce ourselves and tell you all about our family. We are Cody & Kelly, and we have been together over 20 years. We are best friends, parents, and we both enjoy sharing our faith with others. Our story is a little different than most as we haven’t had the heartbreaking experience of infertility, our journey is a spiritual one. God has blessed us with 5 children of our own and has placed adoption on our hearts and we couldn’t be more excited because we have so much love to give and share.
Cody was a junior college baseball player and went on to graduate from the University of Houston with a degree in Leadership and Enterprise Studies. He has been in the insurance industry for the past 10 years and now owns and manages his own insurance agency in town. Cody is a natural born leader, hardworking, and full of life and positive energy. He never meets a stranger, tells horrible dad jokes, is witty, and tons of fun. He is a great baseball and softball coach and can cook an awesome brisket and ribs. Cody is passionate about his love for God, and his family.
Kelly also graduated from the University of Houston with a major in Psychology. She taught and was the director of a day care for 12 years and taught 6th grade English and Reading for 5 years. Kelly is now a stay-at-home mom where she enjoys taking care of the home and cooking for the family. She is bold in her faith, prayerful, and compassionate. Kelly is creative and artistic, can cook award winning chili and beans, and is hospitable. She is an animal lover and enjoys working in her flower beds. Kelly is a great friend, mother, and the biggest cheerleader and supporter for her family.
We have five children, Kade 20, Kyler 18, Karter 14, Kinley 10, and Kasen 8. Kade attends Texas A&M University and Kyler will graduate high school in May this year and will soon be joining his brother at college. All our children are smart, kind, and are super excited to welcome another sibling into our family and all have different ideas of what they want to teach her.
We live in a great little town south of Houston, Tx in a country subdivision with lots of kids and great families. We are family oriented, and love spending time with family, cousins, neighbors, and friends. We enjoy celebrating the holidays, hosting get-togethers, and taking family trips. We have 3 dogs, Reecie, Oakley, and Cash, all mini–Australian Shepherds who love to go on walks in the neighborhood. Our children are involved in baseball, softball, and football, so when we aren’t cheering them on at their games, our family enjoys spending time outdoors camping, cooking, fishing, riding bikes, and vacationing. As a family we have a weekly tradition on Wednesdays of having an action-packed Bible study and homemade pizza night which we all look forward to.
Our promise to you is that we will provide a loving, stable, and Christian environment for your child to thrive in. Our goal as a family is to maintain a loving atmosphere where this child will be developed mentally, emotionally, and spiritually while growing in a caring environment that has her best interest at heart. This child will be loved unconditionally! We respect and value your decision and will continue to pray for strength and peace of mind.
“For this child we have prayed, and the Lord has granted us the desires of our hearts” 1 Samuel 1:27
Thank you so much for your consideration, you are truly a blessing to our family, may God’s love and peace be with you always.

Dear Birthmom,
We haven’t met you yet, but you and your precious baby have been in our prayers every single day. We know that this journey hasn’t been easy. We want you to know that we are praying for you every step of the way, for peace in your heart, and for God to strengthen you and guide you along the right paths. We are so thankful for you and honored that you are considering us as adoptive parents.
Our names are Zoe and Ben and we have been married for three years. Since getting married we have struggled with infertility. This experience has definitely been hard for us, but it has brought us closer together and caused us to lean on the Lord in new ways and drawn us closer to Him daily. One of our greatest desires as a couple is to raise a godly family and we believe that God has led us to Texas Christian Adoptions, and specifically, to you.
We live in Central Texas, near both of our families. We are very blessed to get to see our parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins very often! We met in 2019 through a mutual friend at trivia night and quickly bonded over our mutual love of all things music and our love for the Lord. We got married in the spring of 2021. Ben is a software engineer and musician, and Zoe is a musician/music teacher and works for a Christian education non-profit. She hopes to be a stay at home mom to raise our family. We enjoy performing music at wineries and farmer’s markets in our area, both together and individually.
For fun we love family get-togethers with lots of good food and spending time with our friends. We are avid backyard gardeners and have a dream of one day growing most of what we eat! We also love traveling (especially road trips), hiking, learning how to forage, and geocaching. We are active in our church, in our young adult group, and as home group leaders. We started attending our church in 2020 and feel so blessed to worship God and love people where we are.
Ben is a hard worker and is always learning something new, whether it’s a language (Hebrew) or how to grow the perfect bonsai tree! He is definitely the “funcle” (fun uncle)–our nephews and niece absolutely love spending time with him. He is extremely loving and protective of his family and will be a wonderful dad. Zoe loves teaching music lessons to elementary and middle school kids and seeing their confidence and skills grow. She is patient, very caring, and a dedicated friend. She is a very positive influence in the life of her young nephews and will be a great mom someday.
We promise we will show your child how extremely loved they are, both by us and our families, and by you. We will raise them to know that their worth is in Jesus and that they are children of the Most High God. They will be embraced with all the love in the world by our families and friends.
With love,
Zoe and Ben
