Dear Birth Parent(s),

Our names are Aaron and Julie and we are the proud parents of four wonderful children:  (two miraculous sets of twins!) Big Sister and Big Brother are eleven years old and Little Brother and Little Sister are six years old.  Our family has been blessed with an amazing child who happens to have Down syndrome! She is our gift from God.  We truly feel that God knew that we needed her in our family.  We are better people for having been able to share in her love and being able to see the world through her eyes.  She has taught us all to find joy in the little things, to love deeply, to work harder- and then to really celebrate every accomplishment, to forgive, and to share our lives with others.  We cannot imagine our lives without her! Because of our love for her, and a feeling that we are meant to have another child, we are seeking to adopt a child with Down syndrome.

We are so grateful for the opportunity to be considered as the future forever family for your child.  We do not know you but want you to know of the respect and admiration we have for you as you go through what must be an incredibly overwhelming process to choose an adoptive family for your baby.  Our hearts, thoughts, and prayers are with you! We hope that this profile will allow you a glimpse into the love and laughter that we share as a family and how we would welcome you and your child into that love and help him/her become all that they are meant to be.
