Dear Birthmother,

We would be honored and blessed to have your child as a part of our family. We feel we have a lot to offer a child and would like to extend our love, warmth and security to a child through adoption. We look forward to curling up with a child and reading them a story, giving them a horsy-back ride or maybe playing catch with them in the yard.

About Us
We are a fun and loving Christian couple who enjoy traveling, taking walks, working on crossword puzzles, having friends over for the evening, or just staying home and watching a video with a bowl of popcorn and a fruit smoothie.

We have experienced infertility, but look forward to God's blessings for us through adoption. We want to guide and mentor a child through life, teaching them about compassion, self-esteem, integrity and financial management. We want to do everything to ensure that this child will grow into a secure and well rounded individual who will be a blessing to others.

About Mark
Mark is the pastor of our local church. He's a very sensitive and compassionate person who is genuinely concerned for others. He's also very outgoing with a sense of humor and can be the life of the party. Everyone loves him. Even the older ladies at church love him and want to give him a hug.

Children of all ages love being around Mark. Whether it's helping them build sand castles on the beach, playing ball, imitating animal sounds, fixing a broken toy or just playing board games together, he is always a fun guy to be around.

About Marilyn
Marilyn is a kind, caring and considerate person. She works part time and her schedule is flexible and will allow her to tend to the priorities of raising a child.

Marilyn is adventurous and enjoys trying new things such as whitewater rafting, climbing through mazes or alpine slides. She enjoys gardening, reading and photography. Our nieces and nephews always want her to take their picture doing interesting and unusual things.

Marilyn is looking forward to becoming a mother. She enjoys being around children and reading them a story while acting out parts of it, baking them cookies, teaching them new skills or just creating a fun atmosphere for them to play and have a good time. She makes spending quality time together and creating wonderful memories a priority in our family.

Our Families
We have a close relationship with our families and enjoy getting together on holidays, family get-togethers and Sunday dinners. Our families are very excited about our plans to adopt a child and are anxiously waiting to welcome a new one to the family.

Mark has three grown sons from a previous marriage, JR (27), Nathan (22) and Jared (20). All of the boys are really great with children and will make wonderful big brothers.

Mark is a wonderful father and enjoys spending time with his sons. They enjoy playing softball, golfing, fishing or watching a sports game. Mark is always giving the boys a hug and telling them that he loves them.

Our Home
We live in a ranch style home in Ohio that is located on a quiet cul de sac where the neighborhood children ride their bicycles. We have a large backyard with plenty of room for a child to run and play.

Our church is a very important part of our lives. We plan to raise our child with the same strong Christian morals and values that we embrace. Our church has a wonderful children's ministry and youth program that we look forward to our child being involved in.
