Preston & KariHolder Family

We are Preston & Kari.  We are so excited to share our story with you and hope that you can get a glimpse of the life that we would give your baby.  We have so much love to give and can’t wait to add another child to our family!






Jodi & JasonKeer Family

Our philosophy of life centers around happiness.  We believe there is no reason to wander through life without actively seeking happiness. We believe happiness  starts with our well being; and work hard to stay healthy and fit...both mentally and physically.  We believe ourselves to be open-minded and enjoy that there are views and opinions  different that ours.



Hello! We’re Shanna and Ed from Chico, California. We hope after you’ve gotten to know a little about us through this letter, you’ll be excited about giving us the privilege of adopting your baby.

Thank you for the opportunity to introduce ourselves to you. We pray that after you’ve read our letter, you will feel comfortable in calling us your friends. We realize this is an important life changing decision you are making for you and your baby, and we appreciate you taking the time to get to know us.


Brendan & LauraKenny Family

We believe that each adoption is unique and specific to the needs of the birthmom/parents and the baby. We are very excited about the adoption of a second child and completing our family. We recognize the difficult decision you must make and admire your bravery.




Thank you so much for giving us this opportunity to introduce ourselves and tell you about our desire to bring a child into our lives. This letter is to give you an idea of who we are and what kind of life we can provide for a child. We know that you want to be comfortable in placing your child with the right couple, and we appreciate the amount of strength and courage it takes to consider adoption. As you learn a little bit more about ho we are, we hope that you will consider us as adoptive parents for your baby.


Gina & Dave

Choosing a family for your baby is both loving and courageous. We respect and admire you for making this decision and would like to make you feel as comfortable as possible about selecting us as an adoptive family for your child. Should you choose us, your child would have an incredible life full of joy, laughter, opportunities and an immense amount of love and support.




Sean & Mary AnnSmith Family

Thank you for choosing to read our story. We under-stand that you are faced with an important decision for you and your baby. We hope that after reading this you will get a sense of who we are and why we would be great parents. When we learned we could not have biological children, we did not hesitate to start our adoption journey. We are well established and have prepared our lives and our home to welcome a child with total love.

John & AlexJohn & Alex

Alex and I have been together for over 20 years and happily married since 1996. When we decided it was time to start a family greater than us and our dog, we thought it would happen in the traditional way. For us, however, the traditional way didn’t work. While those efforts and the lack of success were difficult, we were fortunate in that we remained open to, and actively made it know to those around us, that we would like to adopt a child.  As fate would have it, on the same day that we were advised we would not be able to have a biological child, we learned about an opportunity to adopt a child!
