dear expectant mother
One thing we can’t express is how grateful we are for you taking the time to read about our journey.
Our mission is to love a child unconditionally and provide a positive support system so that 20 years from now, they are set up to face any situation head on. A child will grow up in a drug/alcohol-free home with full support from us and be encouraged to try new, creative, and fun ways of solving problems to help reinforce what they learn in school and life. A child will have plenty of time to play with cousins and countless other children of friends of the family. We enjoy activities from city life, like going to the park or walking around the neighborhood to watching movies and playing board games. We also spend time at the farm on random weekends for fishing, swimming, and campfires. We like to challenge each other and play some type of random trivia like who can name the most movies that a certain actor was in. While it may seem like small things, it’s the small things that memories are made of.
While you do have a hard decision to make, we would be forever grateful if you consider us to raise your child. We also respect your preferred adoption (open, semi-open, or closed). We are an open book, and If you have questions for us, please ask.
About Us
Hello! We’re Angie and Jason from Missouri. We took a chance on Internet dating in 2009, and two years later, we were married. We love working in the kitchen together. From the day we met, cooking together told us we could accomplish anything thrown at us. Jason has always had a passion for technology and fixing things like computers. For the last 20 years, he has had various tech-related jobs and continues to enjoy it. Angie found her passion and now works in an olive oil and vinegar shop after 20 years in the banking industry. She takes part in cooking classes they offer every week. We do the small things together, like cooking, swimming, watching movies, playing video games, and finding ways to learn something new every day. We like hopping in the car and taking random roads we have never been down to see where we end up.
Our Home & Pets
We live in a medium-sized suburb on the outskirts of a metropolitan area within walking distance to a park, splash pad, and elementary school. The school district is highly rated for sports and academics. We live in a three-bedroom home with a fully furnished basement. We live in a quiet neighborhood where everyone watches out for each other. We have two dogs who love to sit at the front door and wait for computer repair customers to arrive. We’ve had many furbabies since we met, and the two dogs we have now are like kids and demand we go on walks.
Our Extended Family
Between the both of us, we have four siblings and nine nieces and nephews. Both of our parents are still living, so there are plenty of grandmas and grandpas around and too many aunts, uncles, and cousins and their kiddos to count. We enjoy our large and loud family get-togethers.
We enjoy getting together to watch sports games on TV, firing up the grill, and enjoying each other’s company. Jason likes to give the parents a break at every get-together we attend and play with the babies, chase the nieces and nephews around, or get a game going that includes everyone, like basketball or freeze tag. Everyone calls Jason the big kid in the family who enjoys getting down and dirty with the kids, making them laugh.
Angie loves getting the kids to try new things and gets creative with cold food dishes like pineapple and strawberries covered in whip cream with a dash of cinnamon on top.
Angie also loves to read and will read books to the kids when given the chance.
What Led Us To Adoption
We knew adoption would be part of our story. Of course Jason wanted a dozen kids, but realistically, having one or two and then adopting was our goal. After going through miscarriages and failed IVF, this further solidified our decision that we would adopt. It’s been a roller coaster ride with many mixed emotions along the journey. We want to experience the ups and downs from newborn to graduating from high school and beyond. We have so much love and affection to give. After seeing family members expand their families through adoption, we know this was the right path and are excited to see how our new journey begins.

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!
