dear expectant mother
To a Loving Mother:
We would like to begin by expressing our admiration for your strength, your selflessness, and your deep love for your baby. We cannot possibly fathom the gravity of the decision you are facing, but we want you to know we will walk with you in it. We pray for you and for your baby each night. We pray for your health and safety, for your comfort and peace, and that the Lord would bring us together.
We want you to know what a precious gift you are to our family, and if you should choose to entrust your baby to us, you will be giving us one of the most beautiful and precious gifts we will ever receive. We will always remember and tell your baby that.
We look forward to raising, loving, nurturing, playing with, and caring for this child. We can imagine holding this baby in our arms, falling instantly in love, and watching our families do the same. We dream about watching this baby grow, playing with cousins, and pursuing dreams, and we are again reminded of the immeasurable gift you would be giving to us. We are exceedingly hopeful and oh so excited at the thought of welcoming this baby into our lives.
Sincerely,
Tyler and Allie
About Us
Hi! We’re Tyler and Allie! We met during college in our apartment parking lot when Allie had an embarrassing grocery spill and Tyler came to help pick up the mess. After just one date, we were inseparable. Tyler is hard-working, trustworthy, and kind, and he loves to make Allie laugh. Allie is tender-hearted, thoughtful, and creative, and she loves listening to Tyler teach. Our shared love for the Lord and for family is what stirs and bonds our hearts. There is a huge park quite close to our home that we love to take our son to on the weekends. We also love exploring tiny rural towns, looking for treasures and yummy treats, and taking walks around the lake. Our dearest times are those spent with our extended families. We love visiting them as often as possible and watching the cousins grow up alongside each other.
Our Home & Pets
Both of us were born and raised in the Midwest but moved to Texas for school about ten years ago, and that’s where we met. We recently moved to Virginia, and we love it here. Our house is close to some of our favorite restaurants, shops, and parks, and we have a beautiful lake within walking distance from our neighborhood. We love to play with our son on our back patio and run around our courtyard with him. We also have a fluffy cat named Peach who loves a good treat or a snuggle on the couch.
Our Extended Family
We are both extremely blessed to have close-knit, supportive, and loving families. Both sides of the family have a deep love for the Lord, family values, and sharing fun adventures together. Living far from our hometowns has helped us to make each family vacation, holiday visit, and spontaneous road trip just to say hi meaningful and memorable.
Tyler’s parents, his brother and sister, and their families live in Indiana. Tyler’s sister and her husband have two daughters. Tyler’s brother and his wife also have two daughters. When we all get together, the cousins love to play outside. We love to grill out, enjoy a campfire in the backyard, and play board games, especially Catan.
Allie’s parents, her two brothers, and their families live in Wisconsin. Allie’s brother and his wife have a three-year-old son. When we are all together, we love to spend the day outside by the pool and prepare dinner on the grill, and we especially love to play board games and cards with dessert. One of our favorite family traditions with Allie’s side is spring vacation to our favorite beaches in Florida.
Our Adoption Story
Allie found out at a young age that she would be unable to have biological children. After growing up with two adopted cousins, she was quickly thrilled by the possibility of adopting children of her own one day. When we met, she told Tyler her story and proposed the idea of adoption. Tyler was elated by the idea. That led us to adopt our son, Haddon. Our adoption journey has been a gracious gift. We knew raising a child together would be special, but we never could have imagined the extent of joy and love that adopting would bring. We are so excited by the possibility of welcoming another child into our family through adoption and watching our children grow up together.

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!
