Dear Birthmother
As we write this, we are filled with gratitude, hope, and deep respect for you. We understand the immense strength and love it takes to consider adoption, and we want you to know we see you—your courage, your selflessness, and your love for your child. Whatever path your journey takes, we hope you feel supported and valued.
If you choose us, your child will grow up in a home full of love, laughter, and adventure. Our family and friends are eager to welcome them, and they will be embraced by a community that celebrates them for who they are. Life in our home is filled with warmth—movie nights, Broadway tunes (off-key but enthusiastic!), cheering on our favorite Chicago sports teams, and exploring new places. We can’t wait to share these moments with a child and discover what makes them laugh, what sparks their curiosity, and what dreams light up their heart.
We understand the gravity of this decision, and we will always honor and respect you. If chosen, we promise your child will always know the love that led to this choice. We are open to any level of communication you are comfortable with. You are strong, brave, and so loved. Thank you for considering us.
About Us
We’re Luis and Travis, two Harry Potter fans who met at a work conference nine years ago—Luis, a Ravenclaw, and Travis, a Slytherin. Luis works in education, developing programs and traveling around the U.S. to give leadership talks, while Travis helps companies attract and retain great talent. Luis is the life of the party—caring, funny, and always lighting up a room—while Travis is quieter, thoughtful, and enjoys spending time with close friends and family. When we’re not working, we love exploring new coffee shops and restaurants, or just relaxing at home with a movie or video games. We’ve been lucky enough to travel around the U.S. and Spain, and we’re always ready to cheer on the Chicago Cubs or Chicago Fire.
What Led Us To Adoption
We’re so excited about the chance to love, care for, and raise your beautiful baby. The thought of providing a safe, loving, and supportive home fills us with so much happiness and excitement. What makes us the most excited is the opportunity to give your child a bright future, full of possibilities. We can’t wait to see their first steps, hear their laughter, and be there to cheer them on as they grow and chase their dreams. Travis' family has experienced the incredible beauty of adoption and how it can create a strong, loving family, no matter the biological ties.
Our Home
We live in a friendly neighborhood with lots of families, walking trails, parks, and a clubhouse with a pool. Our home has six bedrooms, a finished basement for playing, a loft, and a fenced-in yard. It's on a quiet street and just a short walk from a charming downtown with shops and a library. With our family nearby, it’s the perfect place to raise a child. Cody Bear, our 14-year-old Goldendoodle, is already excited for his new human sibling to arrive!
Our Family
Travis grew up in Indiana with his two brothers and one sister, and Luis in Florida with his older brother. Together, we have a big, close-knit family with over 50 cousins and more second cousins around the world.
We love spending weekends with family—whether it's a game night at Travis's brother’s place or a cozy movie night with his sister and niece. One of our favorite traditions is Christmas Eve, when we travel to northern Indiana for a big dinner at our cousin’s house, followed by family photos, board games, and holiday movies.
