Waiting Families
Jeremy and Gin
Hello, we are Jeremy and Gin. Thank you for taking the time to read about our family and to learn about our desire to adopt. We can’t even begin to imagine the feelings that you must be going thru, but we hope that you have a strong support system to help you in your decisions. We hope that you find a sense of peace and happiness in deciding whether to parent or in selecting a family to love, protect, and raise your child.
We have been married for five years and enjoy our life together. We are best friends and spend a good deal of our time together. We enjoy traveling, spending time with our dog and cat, and working on our house. Jeremy is an excellent cook, so most of our nightly entertainment is centered around talking about our day while preparing a delicious meal for dinner. We both work full time, so we know the importance of family time together.
Jeremy is a very dedicated and loving husband and I feel lucky to have him. He works hard at his job as a construction superintendent, but he knows how to leave the stresses of work at work. Jeremy constantly goes out of his way to make me feel special and to let me know he cares. He’s full of surprises and even proposed to me on a hot air balloon after surprising me with a bed and breakfast the night before. I can only imagine the surprises he will have in store for our child. I know he will love our child with everything he has and will make sure he or she feels just as special as he makes me feel.
Gin is an amazing wife and very driven woman. She just this year became a licensed CPA after spending the several years before taking classes and studying. I watched her dedication to studying for the CPA exam while working full time. I know part of her drive to get licensed was to have that finished so when the opportunity to raise a child would come she could focus totally on raising our child. I know how secure her love makes me feel and only can imagine how warm and secure a child would feel in her arms as well. I know this means the world to her especially with her inability to carry a child herself. I love my wife more then anything in the world. Just the thought of seeing my wife holding a child of our own, smiling and making funny faces is enough to bring tears to my eyes.
We live in Central Virginia in a great neighborhood. Our spacious home is located adjacent to the neighborhood playground and our fenced in back yard allows for the freedom needed to roam, but also provides for the safety of a growing child. In Central Virginia, we are within a short drive to amusement parks, the James River, beaches, mountains and lakes. Our area offers endless opportunities for learning and having fun. We look forward to sharing the excitement, beauty and peace they all have to offer with our child.
We want our child to see and experience all that life has to offer. Education is one of the most important tools in life and we will work hard to make the best education available to our child. We were offered many opportunities to explore our interests and talents while we were growing up and we want to do just the same for our child.
We are excited about the opportunity to become parents and we are very thankful for adoption. Our child will know as much about you as you offer to us. We want our child to know the love and sacrifice you gave for him or her as early as they can understand. Our families have been very supportive about our adoption plans and they are as excited as we are. We never want our child to feel as if they don’t belong, therefore, we will always keep adoption as an open subject in our home. Our families will do the same. Our child will be loved as much as any child could or should be.
Like we said before, we cannot begin to understand the decision you are about to make. We know that you do not know anything more about us than this letter and our pictures. We just hope that if we are the family you choose that you will find peace in knowing that we will do everything possible to ensure the child has a happy and fulfilling life. We want you to be comfortable with whatever decision you make on behalf of your child and yourself. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Jeremy and Gin
