dear expectant mother
To the Expectant Mother:
First of all, we would like to commend you for having the courage to even start this process and consider adoption. We simply cannot appreciate how difficult this decision has been for you. We know no one expects to be in this unenviable position, and you have our unyielding gratitude for coming as far as to reach our profile and even consider us to love, raise, and guide this child.
For the past five years, our sole priority has been to have children we could bring up to be successful, happy, and independent people who could go out into the world fearlessly to live a gratifying life full of passion and love. That has become a possibility for us because of your selfless sacrifice.
Regardless of what decision you make, know that we reserve no resentment or judgment. We understand everyone's circumstances are unique, and at the end of the day, you're a human being who is doing what she feels is in the best interest of her baby. We look forward to hearing from you, and we cannot wait to get to know you better.
Lovingly and respectfully,
Brianne and Anthony
About Us
Hello! We’re Anthony and Brianne. We’ve been married for four years and together for seven. We first met when Brianne saw Anthony on a reality competition show, and it was love at first sight. She can’t explain it. She just saw him on her TV and felt in her heart he was going to be her husband. Brianne found Anthony on social media and saw that we lived near one another, and the rest is history. Immediately there was an instant comfort and familiarity. We’re both textbook homebodies who would almost always prefer a quiet evening together at home rather than going out into the city. Our personalities complement one another beautifully, Brianne loves Anthony’s spontaneous nature, dedication, and enthusiasm to dive headfirst into anything he’s passionate about. Anthony depends on Brianne’s analytical mind making sure everything is planned for perfectly and her encouraging, supportive demeanor.
Our Home & Pets
We live in a beautiful neighborhood with a playground, tennis court, and community pool. Our home is in a quiet cul-de-sac an hour outside of Atlanta. We live on half an acre of land with four bedrooms, two and a half baths, and a beautiful backyard. We live with our two cats, Murphy and Mocha; they are four years old, and we spend most of our time at home relaxing with our cats, cuddled together on the couch.
Our Extended Family
We are extremely close to our extended family. We travel to Long Island to visit Brianne's family for the holidays; although we don't get to see them as often as we would like, we always have a great time together. Anthony comes from a big, blended family with four younger siblings. We are incredibly close to Anthony’s extended family. At our wedding, some guests had a hard time distinguishing who was on Anthony’s mother’s or father’s side of the family!
We are a close, loving Italian American household and put a great deal of emphasis on the importance of family and celebrating together. Christmas Eve in particular stands out as the most important night of the year as we celebrate the Feast of Seven Fishes, where all the men in our family cook an enormous seafood dinner while all the women socialize in the dining room. We end the night eating together as one big family, spanning four generations. It's a wonderful night full of laughing, playing games, and just the right amount of chaos with five men working around each other in one kitchen. If chosen, it’s a tradition we cannot wait to introduce to your child.
What Led Us To Adoption
We decided to adopt after multiple failed pregnancies through IVF over the past four years. Our final unsuccessful pregnancy was via gestational carrier. (The carrier is a dear friend of ours who approached us wanting to give us that gift.) Subsequently, another married couple we are close to adopted a baby girl after experiencing their own infertility journey. Seeing how happy they were with their beautiful bundle of joy solidified the decision for us to end our IVF process and begin our adoption journey.

Choose a Family for
Your Baby With Confidence
As you browse our list of hopeful adoptive parents, you can feel confident in knowing that all of the adoptive families working with Angel Adoption are prepared to offer your baby a safe, stable, and loving environment along with a wealth of opportunities for a happy and fulfilling life.
Each adoptive parent has been thoroughly evaluated through a home study course conducted by a licensed agency. A completed home study means the family is emotionally, physically, and financially ready to adopt a baby.
The home study process includes assessments of each parent’s character, marital stability, financial situation, lifestyle, and medical history. The agency also runs background checks to verify there is no record of criminal activity or child abuse. In addition, a social worker will inspect the family’s home to ensure it is a safe environment for a child.
Furthermore, Angel Adoption requires each family to be educated on adopting and parenting. After a baby has been placed with the adoptive family, a social worker will continue to monitor and supervise the family. We go to great lengths to make sure all the families you have to choose from are going to be excellent parents for your baby!
