Meet Sam and Jess
Our Story
Dear Birth Parent,
Thank you for taking your time to get to know us! It must be a tiring process as you consider the different options for your child. No doubt, we are thinking of you fondly and already praying for you.
We are Sam and Jess. We’ve been married for 13 years and we have three amazing kids, Elias, Oliver and Ivy. Sam is a family doctor and Jess works part time as a teacher. Adoption has been growing in our hearts for many years and we are thrilled as we get closer to meeting you.
We want to assure you that when we welcome a child into our home and extended family through adoption, they will be loved unconditionally. We will share openly with them about the unique way they joined our family and about their birth parent(s) in the most honoring way. We value as much openness as possible, for the benefit of the child, to be communicated in a loving and caring way. We will never disregard their unique ethnic and cultural background, but rather we will celebrate that part of their identity as they grow. It’s our priority to nurture and care and support this child and see them thrive throughout their life. We can’t wait to meet this special little person and learn who they are.
Our hearts are ready and excited to love and provide a safe, affectionate home for your child. Elias, Oliver and Ivy are already dreaming of all the ways they can play and care for their new brother or sister. We are very open to having post-adoption contact with you as your child grows if you desire that. If you decide to place your baby in our family, know that you will always be carried in our hearts and a vital part of our baby’s life story.
Warmly,
Sam and Jess

Hello Expectant Parent,
Daniel and Tricia
Dear Expectant Parent, We are in awe of your courage and strength in seeking an adoption plan. We want you to know how much love we have to give to your baby. It is a love that has been built over the last 16 years through our time together and that will only continue to grow. Your baby will become part of our everyday lives. As they grow, they will have so many adventures. They will have a lot of cousins and friends to play with, and a lot of family members who will want to hold them forever. We met 16 years ago while out with friends at a local bar. We had a mutual friend we were with that night. From there we went on dinner dates, nature walks and horseback ridings, and an engagement 6 months later. We were both in school and working to save for a wedding a year and a half later. We have always been hard-working individuals with a passion to start a family. We have built a strong foundation and beautiful life that we are eager to share with our future child. This consists of a strong support system, a safe home, and a quiet neighborhood. Daniel is a cardiac sonographer, and Tricia is a veterinary technician. We live with our loving dog, Dorothea. Our promise is to share your story with love and respect. Your child will know how much love you have for them and the courage it took to make an adoption plan. Even though we don’t know you yet, we think about you often and send you positive energy and prayers. We look forward to meeting you. Thank you for taking the time to get to know us. We want you to know we are 2 individuals who will love your baby with all our hearts. We will cherish them, show up for them, and love them unconditionally. With a grateful heart, Daniel and Tricia
