Dear Birthmom
Dear Birthmom
Thank you so much for taking the time to learn about us. We can only imagine how much thought, strength, and love goes into this moment in your life, and we want you to know how deeply we respect you and whatever path you choose.
We are Matthew and Joshua, and we’ve been together for 15 years. Our journey to adoption has been shaped by a strong desire to grow our family with intention, patience, and love. Becoming parents is something we have talked about, prepared for, and dreamed of for a long time.
We value kindness, honesty, curiosity, creativity, communication, and we hope to raise a child in an environment where they feel safe being themselves, supported in their dreams, and always surrounded by love.
If you choose adoption, we want you to know that we would speak of you with gratitude and respect. Your child would grow up knowing how much love went into their story and how brave you are. We are open to sharing updates, photos, or staying in touch in a way that feels right to you, and we believe any relationship should be guided by your comfort and wishes.
Most of all, we want you to feel supported and honored. There is no expectation - only appreciation for the chance to share who we are. Whatever decision you make, we hope you feel peace and confidence in it. We are wishing you strength, warmth, and care during this time.

Our Story
Our day-to-day life is a balance of hard work, family time, and enjoying the simple moments together. During the week, our days are shaped by steady routines and responsibilities that keep us grounded and protected. Working in landscaping has taught us the value of patience, consistency, and caring for the spaces where people live and grow. It’s rewarding, hands-on work that keeps us active, connected to the outdoors, and proud of what we create.
Family is a big part of our everyday life, and we regularly provide childcare for our five-year-old niece. Spending time with her is one of the greatest joys in our week. Whether we’re playing outside, reading stories, or handling bedtime routines, caring for her has given us meaningful, real-life parenting experience. It’s shown us how much we love the rhythm of caring for a child and how natural it feels to be present, patient, and attentive.

Our Extended Family
One of the things we are most grateful for is the strong, loving support network that surrounds us. Our future child will grow up knowing they are part of a big, caring community of people who are excited to love, support, and cheer them on through every stage of life.
Our parents are a huge part of our lives and are overjoyed at the thought of welcoming a child into the family. They are kind, dependable, and deeply family-oriented. Time with them often looks like shared meals, long conversations, and lots of laughter. They are the people that show up - whether it's for birthdays, holidays, school events, or everyday moments that matter.
We are also close with our siblings, cousins, and extended family, who bring so much joy, humor, and connection to our lives. Family gatherings are lively and full of warmth, and children are always the center of the fun. Our child will grow up surrounded by cousins and relatives who will feel more like built-in best friends.

Our Home
We live in Colorado in a friendly, family-oriented neighborhood where neighbors know each other and kids play outside. There are sidewalks for evening walks, nearby parks and playgrounds, and plenty of green space to explore. Our community values connection, kindness, and looking out for one another, which makes it a wonderful place to raise a child.
Our home is a place where we truly love to be. It is comfortable, welcoming, and filled with light, laughter, and everyday moments that matter. We’ve created a space that feels calm and cozy, with room to grow, play, and make memories together. It’s the kind of home where people gather around the kitchen island, where bedtime routines are cherished, and where a child can always feel safe and loved.

Our Journey to Adoption
Some of our happiest memories are made while traveling and spending intentional time together. Exploring new places, stepping away from everyday routines, and sharing experiences is something we truly value, and it’s something we look forward to sharing with a child.
We especially love visiting Disney World and Universal Studios in Florida. There is something magical about those places - the sense of wonder, imagination, and joy that brings people of all ages together. Whether it’s watching fireworks light up the night sky, laughing on rides, or experiencing favorite stories come to life, these trips have created memories we cherish. We look forward to returning one day as parents, seeing those moments through a child’s eyes, and turning those trips into meaningful family traditions.
