Tracy & Brad It happened a lot after we became parents, the famous question: “How do you like being a parent?” I think most people come up with a general answer for this question, make a few jokes about being sleep deprived, and move on. I think deep down however the true feeling of being a parent can’t be described. Your total existence and reason for being changes. You stop focusing on the long term, and begin to live within each small moment your child creates. From simple things early on such as a laugh, or smile, to the first “Ma Ma, Da Da”.

Christine & Jill If you keep reading, you will learn that our house is full of books and our garage is full of camping gear, but we care more about helping others and enjoying life than having lots of things. We value simple living and generosity and honesty and talking things out. We also value having fun and trying new things. We believe these shared values and our life experiences will help guide us as parents in an open adoption.

Nathan For the past few years, I have had the opportunity to play "uncle" to friends' children as well as my niece and nephew, and as satisfying as these relationships are in my life, now I am looking forward to the chance to father my own. There is nothing else in the world that I want to do more than love, nurture, educate, care for, and parent a child. I hope I have the opportunity to meet with you in person after you've seen my life.

John & Julie How do you know when you feel a connection with someone?
Julie felt it John when he patiently explained how to hold a golf club on their 4th date. John felt that connection with Julie when she understood his passion for teaching.
We all felt that connection during our match meeting with Molly (our 22 month old daughter Olivia's birthmom) once we relaxed and realized how much we have in common.
Do you feel a connection to us after reading our letter?
