We want to thank you for considering us as you start to make your adoption plan. Our hearts go out to you as you are faced with this most important decision. It is through the courage of birthparents, like yourself, that couples who have struggled with infertility, like us, realize their dream of raising a family.
Doug and Margie
We are Doug, Margie and Andrew Lippert. While Doug and I have both spoken and written professionally throughout our careers, we sit here together today truly struggling for the right words to tell you how sincerely grateful we are to be considered to raise your child. We hope our genuine warmth and compassion are appropriately expressed as you read our letter
Diana and Paul
Hello, we are Diana and Paul. We met each other in graduate school at Notre Dame, and we have been married for 11 years. A few years ago, we decided to build our family through adoption after we discovered that we were unable to conceive. Through working with The Children's Home, we were blessed with our son Leo a couple years ago. We have received continued support from our family and friends, and have learned so much from Leo over these past few years. That support and our amazing experience with Leo has strengthened our commitment to adopt again to complete our family.
