dear expectant mother
Dear Expectant Mother,
First of all, we would like to thank you so much for taking the time to read this letter. We are looking forward to the opportunity to join this journey with you. We will be with you every step of the way.
A little over a year ago, we adopted a baby girl. She is our pride and joy! We got to meet her 24 hours after she was born in Arkansas. She is such a social butterfly and loves being around anyone! She will definitely make the best big sister. Since we both have agricultural backgrounds, she gets to go on tractor rides and hayrides and absolutely loves it! We cannot wait to be able to create the same memories with an addition to our family!
With our last adoption, we chose to be open and are willing to do whatever would be best for you. We can’t imagine how difficult of a decision this must be, but we promise to pray for you and be there as much as we can along the way. We we promise to tell your little one how loved they are.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read this. We are looking forward to hopefully getting to know you a bit better and getting to meet you!
Sincerely,
Ryan, Cassi & Emma
About Us
We are Ryan and Cassi. We met in Pennsylvania at a farm auction! We both absolutely love anything outdoors. Cassi grew up working on her family’s farm in eastern PA, while Ryan grew up working on a farm in Maryland. We both love four wheeling, kayaking, the beach, camping, hiking, and just relaxing on our big front porch. Ryan works for an agricultural company, and Cassi is a surgical technologist working at a dermatology office. We both just love to have fun and enjoy life!
Our Home & Pets
We live in a home with two living rooms, two full bathrooms, two bedrooms, and a nice-sized kitchen with an open concept. Along with a little over three acres in the country, we have a deck in the backyard and a big front porch! We are surrounded by woods and also have a huge front and backyard. We love our little home. The neighborhood is super quiet, with the best neighbors up the road. We also have chickens that live in the backyard in the woods. We have two of the sweetest hound dogs, which we adore!
Our Extended Family
We both have two siblings each, and both of our families are large! There are so many aunts, uncles, cousins, and close friends who have turned into family. With both families, there are always huge family gatherings at holidays and special events. Ryan’s family enjoys doing an “egg pecking” every Easter. Cassi’s family enjoys volunteering at a farmers fair every July that they have been involved in ever since Cassi was little. Working or hanging out at the farm is always a favorite!
Our Adoption Story
We discovered we could not have biological children and felt God was pulling us toward adoption. We previously adopted a little girl, who is now over one year old! We just love her to pieces, and she is the greatest thing that has happened to us so far. Our journey was exciting but full of ups and downs as well. We love talking about adoption and have family members, neighbors, and church friends who have adopted. We have the best support system through family and friends. We traveled to Arkansas when our little girl was born. She is such a social butterfly, and we are SO excited for her to have a sibling! She will be the best big sister.

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!
