 Dear Birthmother,
I cannot imagine what you must be going through right now. Although we have never met, I know you must be a person that gives of herself and thinks of others first. It is a tremendous responsibility that you have undertaken; to find the best home you can for the precious little life you carry. After reading this letter and learning a little more about Tim & I, I hope your decision may be made a little easier for you. Hopefully, to know your child will always be loved and you will never be forgotten may ease your troubles slightly. Thank you for considering us with your most precious gift.
About us…
From the moment we met, Tim & I were inseparable. We hit it off immediately and I knew we were destined to be together when Tim laughed at my “goofy” jokes, I knew he was a keeper. He always reminds me he knew it was “true love” when I ate his cooking. I just love him to pieces. We make each other laugh. We have so much fun when we are together, whether we’re taking a day trip or just hanging around the house doing chores. We enjoy taking long walks, going to the beach and having friends and family over for dinner or just to hang out.
We treasure each day that we have together as husband and wife; however, we both know there is more to life than just us. We want to have a family together and have tried unsuccessfully since we were married. Although it has been a very difficult time for us, it has made us grow stronger as a couple. Tim and I realize how truly committed we are to one another and how much we both want to have a child together.
We are so excited about becoming parents. While we look forward to the important events in your child’s life, like birthdays and first days of school, we look more forward to the day to day events of just being parents. We hope and pray that we will soon be parents. We promise we will always protect, love and nurture your child more than anything else in this world.
 About Tim
Tim is what you call a true gentleman. From the first day I met him I could tell there was something really special about him. He has a heart the size of Texas. He is fun loving, caring, witty and chock full of energy. He loves any and all kinds of outdoor activities, including hiking, biking, fishing, water sports, rollerblading, jogging or just going to the gym for a good work out. He is constantly on the go and always ready to try something new. He has a personality that just attracts others to him. He just loves life. He is a great story-teller and loves to share the funny things that happen to him throughout his day. He tells a story with so much wit and charm that you can imagine it perfectly. It is truly captivating. He is a rare person. The kind no one ever has a bad thing to say about. Tim loves to help others. He is a police officer in the K9 unit and loves that his work allows him to help people in need. He and his K9 are trained to search & find missing persons. Tim and his partner once found a missing girl who had gotten lost in a 364 acre park with her father. His job allows him to make a difference in peoples lives.
His wonderful qualities of patience, integrity and honesty will make him a truly wonderful father. I feel so lucky to have him as my husband and my best friend. Not only do I love Tim, but everyone in my family loves him too. My nephews and nieces just love to swim, fish, shoot hoops, or go sledding with their Uncle Timmy. He always makes special time for each of them, whether reading them a story, watching a baseball game on TV or teaching them how to make something with his many tools.
 About Sharon
In 1999 an amazing thing happened to me! My brother introduced me to a girl that worked for him named Sharon. She has dark brown short hair and light brown eyes. When she is really happy she smiles so beautiful she lights up a room. Not only is she a beautiful woman, what she is made of is solid, nothing phony. She is classy, compassionate, caring, trustworthy, honest, funny, true to her beliefs, and not afraid to roll up her sleeves and work when the time comes. It didn’t take me long to fall for her, and I haven’t stopped yet. She is the BEST!
At birthday parties, she is always making special desserts for her nephews or nieces. She often bakes them character cakes, like Thomas the Train and Barbie. Rice Krispie treats and homemade ice cream cake are other favorites. She loves cutting their hair (she is a hair stylist) and giving her nieces “beauty makeovers”. Sharon just loves being around them whether playing games, helping them with their homework or having sleepovers.
Sharon loves the beach any time of year. If it’s hot you will find her swimming or playing in the water. If it is a little cool she may be digging in the sand and making castles with her nephews and nieces. If it is a little chilly, you may find her bundled up reading a book. Sharon loves to wake up early and go for long walks on the beach looking for seashells and sand dollars.
Sharon is a realtor, yet her true passion is buying older homes and remodeling them. She has the ability to see something beautiful in something someone else wouldn’t look twice at. She takes pride in her work and isn’t afraid to get her hands dirty. Sharon also has the ability to inspire. She makes you feel like you can accomplish anything, if you put your mind to it. I know these qualities Sharon possesses will make her the most awesome mother.
Our Home
We own a large traditional, English, Tudor Colonial home in New England. It is in the same town that both Tim and I grew up in. Our neighborhood is great. It has many children in which one wouldn’t have to look hard to find a child riding his/her bike, playing basketball/“wiffle” ball, building a snowman, or just walking with their parents. It is a very close knit and friendly neighborhood. Both the elementary school and high school that Sharon attended are within walking distance. We hope to send our child to those same schools. There are also several beautiful parks located within walking distance but most importantly both grandmas are within walking distance.
Our Families
Family is and has always been very important to both of us. We both come from large, close-knit families. Tim and I are both the youngest children in our families. Tim has two older sisters and two older brothers. Sharon has two older sisters and one older brother. Except for one of Tim’s sisters, we all live within a 3 mile radius of each other. Get-togethers, birthday parties, holidays and cookouts are frequent, strengthening our ties to our family even more. Your child would have 7 aunts,
6 uncles and 11 first cousins to lavish him/her with all the attention he/she will ever need, not to mention two grandmas who anxiously await the arrival of a new grandchild to love.
One of the many reasons we want to have a family is to pass on family traditions, such as celebrating holidays and making special family dinners, which to an Italian girl like Sharon is a must. You know a good dinner must include 5 courses, including tortellini and cannolis for dessert. On St. Patrick’s Day, due to Tim’s Irish heritage, the corn beef and cabbage will be cooking, as his mom did for years.
Your child would be part of it all!
 Family Vacation
Our families love the beach. It has become a tradition for our families to rent a beach house each year for a wonderful vacation together. This week, is a week we all look forward to. It is a time to kick back and really enjoy one another. We swim, fish, play in the water, dig in the sand and sunbath all day long and we love it! We play many competitive card games with our nieces and nephews, take long walks, cookout and attend an awesome lobster festival where they have tons of fresh seafood, rides, games, ski ball, and fireworks to top off the night. It is great!!
Thank You
We want to be parents and that is why we have chosen to adopt. We want a child to love unconditionally, nurture and teach the principals that were taught to us by our parents. We want to be a Mom and Dad and have a son or daughter to love, to hold, to comfort, and to just be a FAMILY! Thank you for taking the time to learn about us. We would be honored to share our life and our love with your child. Know in your heart, if you chose us, we will cherish and treasure your child each and every day of his/her life. This we promise you. Thank you!
