Dear Birthmother,

Hello, we are Alvin and Stefanie. We are an energetic, fun-loving couple and family is our priority. We know that God’s plan for us is to become first time parents through adoption and we look forward to learning more about your hopes and plans for your baby. We have been happily married for five years.

Together we enjoy boating at the local lakes, snow skiing, trips to the beach and many other outdoor activities. We value the importance of a healthy life style and strive each day to be both physically and mentally fit. We have enjoyed traveling over the years in and out of the U.S. and look forward to giving your child the opportunity to see and experience new things through travel.

Getting To Know Alvin
Alvin is the type of person that everyone wants to be around. His warm heart and funny sense of humor makes everyone smile. One of the things that I love most about Alvin is his ability to always have a positive outlook on life. I believe his strong faith in God is what gives him this ability.

Alvin works as a firefighter for the local fire department. He also operates and manages our family dairy farm. Alvin is very passionate about everything he does. Whether it is working on the family dairy farm or working at the fire department, you can bet that his whole heart is in it. I know that this quality will make him a great father. In his off time, Alvin enjoys relaxing and having a good time. Some of his leisure-time activities include flying his model airplanes, water skiing and spending time with family and friends.

Getting To Know Stefanie
If you ever needed someone to count on, it would be Stefanie. She is a sincere person and will give anyone her undivided attention when needed. Her good morals and closeness to God are what stand out most to me. Stefanie’s favorite hobby is gardening. Our house is always gleaming with colorful flowers and beautiful plants.

She is a registered dental hygienist and currently works two days a week until she has the opportunity to be a full time stay-at-home mom. Stefanie is a hard worker and it shows. She enjoys exercising routinely and tries to live a healthy life. She also finds pleasure in spending time with family and friends. One of the best things about her is how well she can cook; she makes the best chicken enchiladas. I look forward to raising a child with Stefanie.

Meet Elly
Our dog is a two year old, female Dalmatian. She brings loads of entertainment to all that meet her. She loves visiting Alvin at the firehouse and most of all riding on the tractors at the farm. She has a sweet personality and loves to play with our nieces and nephews.

Our Home and Family
We enjoy our cozy four-bedroom home located on our dairy farm in central California. Our large, fenced backyard has plenty of room to run and play. We also have a swimming pool that provides summer time fun.

We have 15 nieces and nephews that live locally, which would mean your child would have cousins to grow up with. Our family and friends are so happy for us, and they can’t wait to welcome a new child into their hearts.

Our Faith
We were both raised in the Catholic Church and today still remain practicing Catholics. We believe that a strong sense of spirituality is an important foundation for every family. Prayer is part of our daily routine; we believe that this makes us stronger as individuals and as a couple. Your child will attend the same private catholic school that Alvin attended as a child and we will raise him or her to know and love God.

Our Promise
We promise a lifetime of unconditional love and to be supportive understanding parents.

We will be open and honest with your child about his/her adoption story. We are financially stable and ready to start a family. We are committed to each other, our families and to raising children. We are open to life long contact through photos and letters. We are also open to discussing plans for visits. We thank you sincerely for taking the time to read about us.
