You can decide who your baby is placed with and we have many wonderful waiting families to be chosen from. Below is a list with photos, videos and letters from our current waiting families!

We are Zach, Carmen, and Josiah, and we understand this might be a difficult time for you. We are praying for you, your baby, and the decisions you will be making in the coming days. We have been happily married for 13 years and have a stable marriage built on our shared faith. We adopted our son, Josiah, 5 years ago and have loved every moment of laughter and love he has brought into our lives. We would love to welcome more children into our home and hearts through adoption.We make our home in the country, which allows us to have several animals including dogs, chickens, goats, ducks, and a mule. Raising our children in the country has been our dream, and we love being able to provide our children with opportunities to learn and play outdoors. Getting to experience and interact with nature and wildlife on a daily basis is a blessing for which we are grateful. Our home and property provide myriad opportunities to teach our children not only about biology, chemistry, and agriculture, but more importantly about God’s creation and His wonderful mercy.

Thankfully, we have a good relationship with Josiah’s birth mom, and we love and respect her for the choices she made which allowed us to fulfill our dream of becoming parents. We know the sacrifice and love she showed through her decisions, and we are thankful every day that she chose to give life to our precious son. May God lead you in His path and give you peace and confidence in your decisions.

With admiration and respect,

Hi there!

We are Caleb and Kara from central Texas. We’ve been married since 2016, bought a 2-story home with 4 bedrooms and 2 playroom areas in 2018 and we’re ready to fill it with family which begins with a precious child!

We have been close friends since 2011 working on creative projects that have included voice acting, singing, and producing original content such as radio plays. At the time, Caleb was working in sports production and Kara was a pre-school teacher and communications assistant for her church. We began to date in 2012 and in 2014 Caleb began to form a career as a singer and vocalist for a variety of projects. By 2015 it became evident that between Caleb’s talent and Kara’s knack for organization, we were able to have full-time jobs in the music industry.

We are a family who loves God and His Word, the Bible. We believe in prayer and have great faith that He is leading us on a journey to find our child. We have also been praying for you! You have shown great courage, strength, and humility to take these challenging steps forward with your life and the life growing inside you. We are eternally grateful to your decision to allow us to grow our family. You have faithfully already chosen to love your child by putting their needs above your own and we vow to ensure he or she will fully know the sacrifice you made.

To learn more about Caleb and Kara click here!

Kara especially understands the value of your decision. She was given up at birth because her birth mother knew she was unable to provide for a third child at 19 years old. She traveled from Mexico to Texas to pursue an abortion, but by the grace of God and her willingness to sacrifice a part of herself, she changed her mind opting to offer her daughter up for adoption. Kara was given a home with a wonderful family who were able to give her an adventure-filled life full of love.

Because of Kara’s personal experience as an adopted child, she has longed for the day that she too would be able to adopt a special baby. Caleb began to share that desire as we discussed family planning and now both of us pray regularly for you and the small life you’re bringing into the world.

Hi there, we are Everett and Sasha!

First, we want to thank you for choosing life for this amazing blessing you are growing inside of you.  We admire you for considering adoption as we know this is a confusing and difficult time in your life. You will be giving someone the gift of life, and someone else the gift of parenthood. Know that you are so loved and appreciated by your child’s adoptive parents, for you have blessed them with a life they have been praying so hard for. 

We may not have been fortunate enough to conceive naturally, but we firmly believe that God’s plans are bigger than us and it’s what has led us here, to you. We promise you that this baby will be loved and cherished every step of the way, regardless if they are of our blood or not. We promise to value their opinion and provide a safe, happy home and a life with every opportunity possible! We promise to keep God in the center of our family and teach our children of his grace and mercy. Above all else, we promise to be the best parents we can be to this child and remain grateful for their presence in our lives eternally.

We both love to spend our time together enjoying God’s creation to mankind. We love to go fishing and hiking when the weather is nice, and enjoy spending quality time with the family any chance we can. Everett enjoys his spontaneous hobbies like skydiving, while I pursue Makeup Artistry as my side hobby. We are both so different when it comes to our likes and dislikes, but we balance each other out in the best way possible.

    Our future goals as a family are to travel the world and teach our kids of all the greatest values and skills God has instilled in us.  We promise to love and respect your baby with all we have! We know parenthood will come with it’s struggles, but we know it will be so rewarding! You and this baby are such a blessing to us. 
If you decide to make an adoption plan, we want to assure you that we promise to respect you and your level of openness and contact you want to have with your child. We are praying for you and your baby throughout your pregnancy, that God will fill you with peace in whatever decision you make. 

Hello!  We are Devon and Adam. Although God has not yet blessed us with children, we have known for many years that adoption would be an amazing path for sharing our lives and hearts with a child. We are honored that you are considering us as a potential adoption family.

Just a few weeks after being married in 2018, we knew living full-time in Dallas, TX would not give us the rest, beauty and memories of having a home in the country. So, for the last 3 years, we have spent most of our weekdays at our Dallas home, and most of our weekends, and holidays, at our vacation home on Cedar Creek Lake. Family memories have been made constantly at the lake as we teach nieces, nephews, and cousins the simple life of fishing, swimming, kayaks, and taking the boat out to catch a beautiful sunset over open water. Bear and Gemma, our goldendoodles who are gentle and love children, also make up a good part of our home life and literally count the seconds until we hop into the car to make our way back to the lake where they can chase squirrels and jump in the water!

We feel called to serve others with our love and time. We are active mentors in the Big Brothers Big Sisters programs, and consider it an honor that those families have trusted us with helping their kids in personal and educational development. At our church, we also have served in children education programs.

We have always dreamed about being parents and having a child to raise in a loving home.  We are very excited to be adopting and have so much love to share for this child as we expand our family. Please always know we will unconditionally love and cherish your child and we will make sure that they will be proud to be adopted and know God’s love for them. We hope these pictures and information gave you a look at our lives and we look forward to meeting you.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

With love and respect, Adam and Devon                     

Hi there! We are Caleb, Miranda and Quinn! We met in 2010 when Caleb got his first job out of college. Unbeknownst to him, he would be sharing a cubicle with his future wife! We started dating the year after that and were married in 2013. We have a two year old daughter, Quinn, and three dogs so it is never a dull moment in our house. Adoption has always been something we thought we would consider (we both have multiple adopted cousins) after having two kids, but we have experienced three miscarriages and feel God pointing us down the adoption path sooner than we planned! The losses that we have experienced have given us an even greater appreciation and joy for new life and we cannot wait to have another new life join our family.

Our home has ample family space inside and a huge backyard for various fun activities! Caleb works for a wealth management firm and Miranda works for a family venture capital firm. Keeping God central to our family is important to us and we participate in various church activities such as co-leading a small group in our home, occasionally leading a women’s or men’s group, serving in the nursery, and on the board. In the community we volunteer with Big Brothers Big Sisters and special needs programs. Serving others is a virtue we hope to instill in our children through leading by example.

Your decision to create an adoption plan for your baby leaves us feeling incredibly humbled, grateful, and amazed. We know that this new life is precious and cherished and if they (and you!) become a part of our family, they will be loved and cared for with all we have.

Praying God wraps you in peace and confidence throughout this journey. 

Caleb, Miranda, and Quinn

Hello, we are David and Candida.  We are a bilingual family. We have been married for 19 years and are truly best friends. We tried to start a family six years ago but were unable to.  We tried several fertility treatments, all which failed.  In December 2020, we felt God leading us to become Foster Parents. We became certified and welcomed a baby boy into our home in March 2021. After almost a year, we were finally able to adopt him!  He is now nineteen months old and a happy, beautiful baby boy. We are so happy and blessed to call him our son. We hope to adopt again so that he can grow up with a brother or sister. We want you to know that if we are chosen, we promise to love this child with all of our hearts.  Our families will be there to love, encourage and support this child.  We promise to teach this child about God’s love and of the loving and selfless sacrifice you made.  We hope you will consider us.

Hola. Somos David y Candida.  Nosotros somos una familia bilingüe. Hemos estado casados por 19 años y somos verdaderamente mejores amigos. Intentamos formar una familia hace seis años, pero no pudimos.  En diciembre de 2020, sentimos que Dios nos guiaba a convertirnos en padres de crianza. Nos certificamos y en marzo de 2021, dimos la bienvenida a un bebé a nuestra hogar. ¡Después de casi un año, finalmente pudimos adoptarlo! El ahora  tiene  diecinueve meses y es un bebé feliz y hermoso. Estamos muy felices y bendecidos de llamarlo nuestro hijo. Esperamos adoptar de nuevo para que el pueda tener un hermano o hermana. Queremos que sepas que si somos elegidos, prometemos amar a este niño con todo nuestro corazón. Nuestras familias estarán allí para amar, alentar y apoyar a este niño/o niña.  Prometemos enseñarle a este niño/o niña  sobre el amor de Dios y del sacrificio amoroso que hiciste.  Esperamos que nos tomes en consideración. 

Thank you,
Candida and David

Dear Birth Parents,

Thank you for considering us as a potential family for your baby! We are Sean and Jeanette, high school sweethearts who have been married since 2010 and have 3 amazing children. Sean works in property management and real estate, and Jeanette is a stay-at-home mom with an online business reselling antique and vintage treasures.

We are dedicated to giving our children enjoyable childhoods full of good memories and teaching them life skills that they will need to be successful later. We prioritize being connected with a strong family-oriented church and teaching our children about God and his love for us. We home school and attend a weekly co-op.

Our family enjoys reading books together, playing board games and traveling. A highlight of our year is our annual trip to the mountains of North Carolina. We also frequently visit Granny and Grumpy’s ranch and take other trips with the kids. We nearly always have a membership to a zoo or aquarium.

To see Sean and Jeanette’s video click here!

Jeanette loves painting murals, doing crafts and planning themed birthday parties with fun homemade cakes. She also cooks most meals at home and enjoys finding delicious and healthy recipes. Sean is incredibly handy and built the kids an amazing fort in the backyard. He and the boys love to wrestle and run around together.

We would love to provide your precious baby with a fun home with parents who love each other, three amazing siblings to grow up with and the sweetest doggie friend. We will be praying for you in this time of difficult decisions.

Love in Christ,
Sean, Jeanette, Flynn, Titus & Annora

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!!!

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 Expecting 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 may not be able to conceive naturally, but we strongly believe God has bigger plans for us, which is why He has led us to you. 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.

God brought us together on the luckiest day of the year, St. Patricks Day! We met in Galveston, TX while Lillian was furthering her education at UTMB and Mark was working on his first project post college. After being together for 4 years, we got married in 2018 in Oklahoma with close friends and family.

Together we love traveling, outdoor adventures, and are huge foodies. We want our child to have a life full of experiences. Quality time is our love language. We love game nights or movie nights, where we just laugh and enjoy each other. We love cooking together and walking our 2 dogs: Jax and Josie, who both love children and love to play.

Lillian is amazingly sweet, thoughtful, and caring. Family is incredibly important to her, so she loves quality time with family playing board games, puzzles, or watching movies. She is a certified PA in Dermatology. She has a big heart and cares deeply for her patients. Mark is incredibly kind, patient and generous. He is a Project Manager with a strong work ethic, and has been working for the same construction company for 9 years. Mark is incredibly family oriented, always puts others before himself, and being a father means everything to him. 

Should you choose us, we are so grateful and ready to love and support you and your precious little one on this journey.

With Lots of Love,

Mark & Lillian

Hi, we are Joanna & Victor!

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about us, we love you already! We feel blessed and fortunate to be in this process together. You will never walk alone and neither will we. We are here to care, love and support each other – in every decision and every step of the way.

Once you choose us, we pledge to do everything in our power to care, love, provide and support our children in every need. We will tell our child how much you love them, to raise our children in a Christ-centered home and to show respect for our child’s birth family. If our child wishes to find their birth family as an adult, then we will be especially supportive.

Joanna’s parents live ten minutes from our house and they come every week to eat with us at home. Both sides of the family are very supportive of our adoption journey! They cannot wait to meet the newest member of our family, especially both of Victor’s grandmothers. We have several amazing friends, whom we get together as much as we possibly can.

During the week, Victor works from home and Joanna is a homemaker, so days at our home usually involve preparing home made meals and spending as much time together as possible. Victor’s office is inside the house, so he enjoys having visits during the day from Joanna, Hugo or both.                                                    

To Learn More about Victor and Joanna click here!

Weekends at home are very relaxing and when the weather is good, we take advantage of it and spend as much time as possible at the lake, out in the boat. Victor loves to cook, especially seafood so he usually makes ceviche, sashimi or sushi. He is also a big fan of the grill, so firing up the barbecue is one of his favorite weekend activities. We usually invite our friends, family or neighbors to this get together.

Both Joanna and Victor have big families, so there are lots of other cousins to play with! Our families love celebrating the holidays BIG, so Christmas dinners typically involve over fifty adults and children tinkering in the kitchen and playing under the tree.

We purchased our current home a couple of years ago. It is a two-story french cottage, rustic modern house, sitting on an acre of land. We have a large yard in the front and back of the house. The house had a lot of potential since we moved in, so we have been working on home improvements, especially Joanna who has a special taste for modern farmhouse styles and loves interior design.

Education is a priority to us, so we are financially planning to put all of our children through college and possible higher education like a Master’s or Doctorate program.

It’s a dream of us to become parents for the first time and we cannot wait to do so! We are praying for you, your family and our baby every day. We cannot wait to meet him/her! We want to help our children reach their full potential and we cannot wait to see who God creates them to be. Thank you for taking the time to read our letter. We appreciate and love you more than you know.

Sincerely,

Joanna & Victor

Hi there! We are Kristi and Tyler!
First, we want to thank you for choosing adoption! We know this decision cannot be easy, but it is an incredible one! We are so excited about the possibility of becoming parents and a part of your story! 
We have been married for 5 years and while we do not have any children, we currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats who are beyond spoiled. When we met, we knew it was meant to be, but we ultimately fell in love through our conversations of Christ and Bible studies. We have a shared love for the Lord and have been active members in our church for over a year, with a previous one for 4 years. We enjoy riding our bikes, playing board games, swimming, and love all animals. Fun fact: we are well on our way to visiting every zoo in the state! We have built and established our home in a small town that is so welcoming, friendly, and warm. We have a lot of land and space to run, plus a pool to cool down in the hot summers.  
Kristi is currently a high school math teacher. She has been teaching for 6 years and absolutely loves it. She loves getting to build relationships and impacting the future generations for good! Tyler was previously military, the Army, but has since transitioned into pest control. It’s not something he ever thought he would be doing, but he has been able to thrive and become very successful in it. 
 
We both come from large families, we are each one of 5 children and most all family live nearby. Most weekends are filled with family gatherings, birthdays, or holidays. Not only will this baby be loved by us, but by all sets of grandparents, 14 aunts and uncles, plus 6 cousins. 
We are beyond grateful for you and the choice you are making. Please know you have been prayed over daily and will be for the years to come. Please know you are deeply loved, cherished, and cared for even more so by an Almighty Father in Heaven. 

Thank you for considering us! 

New Families to TCA

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

Hi! We are Chris and Brenna

We are so grateful for you and we have been praying for you during this time.

We have been married since 2014 after meeting at the Rodeo and life has been fun and crazy since. We live in a sweet small town and can’t wait to fill our home with kids. Chris is a firefighter and Brenna is a hairstylist. Together we own a hair salon.

To learn more about Chris and Brenna click here

It has been our prayer for many years that God’s plan for us includes children. We are excited for this journey and are trusting in His perfect timing. We have a large, loving family with lots of grandparents, aunts, uncles and 3 little cousins, all of whom can’t wait for another sweet baby. Our cat and two dogs love children and we know they’re excited for a baby to join their pack. 

We can’t wait to make new memories creating a life around a sweet child, and we are honored and grateful that you’d consider us as adoptive parents. 

With grateful hearts,

Chris & Brenna 

 

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 has never left us. Don’t get us wrong, it’s been a great journey! Sam earned his bachelor’s and now works as a Software 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 mooseOur 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! A joy to everyone! Very social. We absolutely love being parents. And she is going to be a great older sister! 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. 

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 Birth Mother,

Hello! We are Brock and Lauren. We don’t know your personal circumstances, but it is not lost on us the sacrifices you are making to love your child. We believe every life is sacred and worth fighting for. We also know firsthand some of the physical, emotional and social tolls and challenges that pregnancy can bring, and it shows courage, strength, integrity, and love that you are choosing the gift of life. Thank you. 

We are praying for you as you carry your baby through pregnancy and as you navigate this adoption process. May the Lord bring you clarity, peace, and wisdom, and would you know the breadth, length, height and depth of His love for you that surpasses knowledge (Ephesians 3:18) and never ceases (Lamentations 3:22). 

We have been married since 2015 and have two sons – Eli was born in October 2020, and Cohen in January 2023. Eli is high-energy, goofy, has a contagious laugh, and loves to kiss and protect his little brother. Cohen goes with the flow and is growing and interacting more each day. It’s a joy and privilege to be their parents.

We both have felt called to adopt since before we started dating. We believe adoption is a clear earthly representation of the gospel of Jesus. Through what God has done in Christ’s death on the cross and resurrection from the dead, we who trust in Jesus are forever considered children of God and adopted fully into His family. Our goal is to make much of Christ, and we pray we are able to live that out partly through adopting a child to love as our own. 

Brock has a flexible job as a physician assistant in the emergency room, and Lauren works two days per week as an occupational therapist in the hospital. We are blessed to have parents who live locally and watch our children on the days we are both working. 

We have great support systems with family close by (parents, siblings, cousins, and grandparents), our church’s homegroup (which we host and lead weekly), and lifelong friends who are also raising young children. We enjoy outdoor activities, traveling, sports, and spending time with friends and family. 

It has been our desire to have our children close together in age so that they can grow up and live life in similar stages. We are excited to welcome a new son or daughter into our home and know our boys will be great with a new brother or a sister.

We are also excited to get to know you and share this journey with you. You and your child are loved and prayed for. 

In Christ,

Brock, Lauren, Eli and Cohen
