Choose A Family : Parent Profile
Nancy
Dear Birth Mother,
Thank you for taking the time to read my letter and for considering me as an adoptive parent for your child. My wish is that you are guided to the right family for your baby. While you are making one of the biggest decisions of your life, I hope that I can make it less difficult by providing you with this small glimpse into my life.
My name is Nancy and I have a beautiful son named Jacob. I adopted Jacob through international adoption in 2007. As a parent, I think it is important for every child to experience life with a sibling and I can’t wait to experience the joys of parenting with another child.
I feel extremely fortunate to have a strong group of family and friends aiding me in providing a loving and supportive environment for Jacob, complete with many wonderful role models. They are all highly supportive of my decision to adopt again and continue to support me and Jacob with unconditional love.
My Dream to Expand Our Family
Becoming a parent has been my greatest blessing. I have wanted nothing more in my life than to be a mother and to love and nurture children with all my heart. Adopting again was an easy choice for me; it was the best thing that ever happened to me the first time around and I am thrilled to be starting down the path again!
My desire to adopt another child has only increased each day I spend with Jacob. I want to continue to love and nurture a new addition to the family while also providing both with the benefit of having a brother or sister. I know the value of family and am ready to add to ours.
Parenting
While I know there are very few guarantees in life, I do promise to raise your child in a happy, loving and safe environment. I hope to teach them about the world and the different cultures, its amazing sites and the precious experiences that it has to offer. I look forward to sharing music, books, school work, sports and the great outdoors.
I know that children need creative time to play and to let their imaginations grow. Our days will be filled with fun recreation classes, hanging out with family, trips to the aquarium and the zoo, story time at the library, and meeting friends at a local playground will keep us busy. Our home is a place where my children can gain the skills needed to explore the world, and learn to make decisions, ultimately fulfilling their destinies. My goal as a mom is to guide them on this journey, giving them the unconditional love and support of family along the way.
Where We Live
La Crescenta, California is nestled in the Foothills of the Los Angeles area and is a family oriented community. I enjoy the area for its temperate weather and its close proximity to the city’s theaters and sports arenas. There are many rural and picturesque parks nearby; and there are many beaches that are a quick drive away. I own a very cozy three bedroom, two bath home in a really great neighborhood. I am surrounded by an array of excellent schools. Our school district is one of the best academically in the state and offers many activities for children of all ages.
About Me
My friends and family describe me as honest, loyal, giving, caring, and down to earth. People who know me take comfort in my reliability and sense of humor. I enjoy the simple things in life.
Getting together with my family and friends and keeping holiday traditions is important to me. From holiday celebrations to summer barbecues, there is always an event on the horizon. Some things I look forward to every year are: trick or treating with family and friends around the neighborhood, Easter egg hunts, watching fireworks on the 4th of July, a big Thanksgiving dinner, decorating the house for Christmas and staying up to wish those most special to us a Happy New Year! Sharing these traditions with Jacob has made them even more special and I can’t wait to include my next child in these festivities.
I also enjoy traveling, spending time exploring museums, rooting for the Dodgers and Lakers, relaxing with a good book, heading out to the theater or the movies, gardening, cooking, baking and shopping. I am very fortunate to have a career that allows me flexibility and financial stability. This will allow me to be present for my children from the little things to the really big events throughout their lives. I know the importance of parent participation and showing your child that what matters to them, matters to me. Although I haven’t found that terrific, loving husband to spend my life with, I still hope to find someone who will be an excellent husband and father to my children one day.
About Jacob
Jacob is a happy, healthy and intelligent 2 year old boy. He is fun-loving, easy-going, inquisitive and full of life. He is always smiling and his giggle makes my heart melt. He loves to “read” (look at books), tumble, cuddle, giggle and sing. Often in the morning I am awakened to the sweet sound of him singing in his bed and reciting his alphabets. He is so much fun and he steals the hearts of everyone he meets! I want so much for him to have a brother or sister to share his childhood with and I know he will be a fantastic big brother.
About Ty and Max
Our happy family also includes two little dogs, Ty and Max. Ty and Max are both very sweet dogs and they love children. They often cuddle with us and give us kisses. They are easy going and are playful with kids.
My Family
My parents were high school sweethearts and have been married for over 41 years. I am one of three children.
I have an older sister and a younger brother with whom I am very close to. Both my sister and brother are currently married. I have two nephews from my sister, Ethan is 22 months old and Liam is 9 months old. Jacob and Ethan are best buddies. I see that Jacob will be a phenomenal big brother because he is very protective of Liam and will give Liam kisses and sing to him when he cries.
My parents are your typical grandparents; they love to spoil their grandchildren! You could not ask for better grandparents. Jacob and I are very lucky to have them. My family all live relatively close to me. I see my sister, my brother-in-law and my nephews at least 2 to 3 times a week and see my parents and my brother and sister-in-law at least 1 to 2 times a week. We are a very close knit, loving and supportive family. We know how lucky we are to enjoy each other’s company.
My goal is to give my children the wonderful life that that my parents gave me. Through them, I have been taught what parenting requires. My promise to you is that your child will be encouraged to follow their dreams and be assured that he/she has the ability to accomplish whatever they may choose. I feel love and emotional support is of the utmost importance for raising children into a healthy, emotionally sound, confident and successful adult. He/she will also be surrounded by a wonderful brother, extraordinary grandparents, loving family members and supportive friends who are all very excited to offer loving support and assistance in whatever needs may arise.
Thank You
I hope this brief letter gives you a little insight into our cozy life. I would enjoy talking to you and answering any questions you might have. I look forward to meeting you and learning about your hopes and dreams for your baby.
To say “thank you” would be a great understatement if you selected our family for your child. I know it takes courage to do what you are preparing to do and my thoughts and prayers are with you as you prepare yourself for this journey.
