“Adoption is not a breaking of trust but a keeping of faith… not the abandonment of a baby but an abandonment of self for a baby’s sake.” - Curtis Young (2001)
There are many decisions that have to be made in this life. Some are easy and some are difficult. There are times of sadness and there are times of happiness. The decision of whether to parent or to place your baby is probably one of the hardest decisions that you have ever and will ever be faced with. Knowing that you have a Heavenly Father who is aware of you and your situation will help guide you to the right decision for you and for your baby. We pray that you will find comfort and peace during this time. We love you and pray for you daily. Love, Chris, Amy, Noah, and Kaitlyn

Kaitlyn's Birthparents



We are so lucky to have Kaitlyn in our family.  She has the most amazing birthparents ever!  Ashley and Deon are a huge part of our lives.  They placed their baby girl with us and trusted us to give her the best life possible.  Amy gained a great love for Ashley as they emailed for 2 months about Ashley's sweet baby girl.  Amy fell in love with her from the very 1st email.  

We were able to be at the hospital when Kaitlyn was born.  This is where we officially met Ashley and Deon for the 1st time.  We clicked instantly.  We spent the 3 days in the hospital with them talking, telling stories, and sharing a great love and bond with the sweet new baby.  We were able to spend time with Ashley and Deon as we waited to be cleared to leave the state.  We went to target and shopped and even went to dinner a few times.  It was such an amazing experience to bond with them.  

We remain in close contact with them.  We love sharing pictures with them on facebook, sending them pictures and photo books of their baby girl.  We text and email.  We love that they are now part of our family too.  Our thoughts are this, "you can't have too many people to love you."  We love Ashley and Deon and are very grateful for their great love and sacrifice.  We have pictures of them with Kaitlyn in her room so that she always knows who they are and how much they love her.
