Thank you for taking the time to read our profile. We know you must be facing a number of complex emotions about this process. We’ve dreamed of having a family of our own to love and nurture, and that wouldn’t be possible without your special gift. There’s so much beauty in that, but we know it isn’t that simple. We want to come alongside you and do this with you because we care about you as much as we care about your baby. Our hearts are open to your desires for your child. We want you to be able to play whatever part you wish in your child’s life.

Since we’ve dreamed of this for so long, we can guarantee we will love your child fiercely and will provide them with as many opportunities as we can for them to learn, grow, and become exactly who they were meant to be. We want to teach them the value of education, diversity, and empathy. We desire for your child to grow up with a strong sense of identity as well as a strong commitment to community. We want to help give them tools to confidently navigate a world that isn’t perfect while also teaching them that life can be full of joy and peace.

We are so grateful to you for even considering us enough to read our whole letter. We ache for a child of our own, and you could make that possible. That is incredibly humbling, and we are eternally grateful.

With love,
Rachel and Joey
