Dear Birthmother
We’re Jeromy and Michael, a fun-loving couple with a beautiful family we can’t wait to grow. We admire your strength and courage in considering adoption and have deep respect for the love you are showing.
Our adventure together started 12 years ago and has been filled with laughter and joy. We’re lucky to have already adopted our wonderful baby girl, Eleanor, who lights up our lives. We cherish every moment with her and can’t wait to give her a sibling to share adventures with. We live in a vibrant, diverse community with great schools and parks. Our home is cozy and welcoming, with family and friends excited to welcome another child. Kindness, empathy, and family are at our core. We love fostering curiosity, personal growth, and compassion. As a same-sex couple, we know the importance of love and acceptance and are committed to raising our kids in a safe, loving environment.
Thank you for considering us as potential parents. We’d love to get to know you and share more about our lives and hopes for the future.
Gratefully yours,
Jeromy, Michael & Eleanor
Our Home
We have a two-story traditional home with four bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and a massive yard to play in. It is very sentimental to us. It was built by Michael’s “MeeMaw,” and she raised Michael’s mother there. Michael was there often as a child, and when we moved back, it became a staple of Jeromy’s life as well. After her tragic passing, we were honored to buy it and renovate it into our dream home. Our neighborhood is incredibly kid friendly with children of all ages. We get together regularly and have events like movie night, ice cream socials, and holiday horse-drawn sleigh rides (going on our 14th year!).
Our Family
We come from large, loving families and feel so fortunate to have deep connections with them. Michael’s family is especially big. His mom’s side includes three uncles and an aunt, and his dad’s side has two uncles. Many of them have children and grandchildren, adding up to over 100 relatives! Every Sunday, we gather at Michael’s parents’ home for family dinners, and we host many celebrations at our house, continuing over 60 years of traditions.
Jeromy’s family is just as close-knit. He grew up in a small village in Illinois, where his mom is one of nine siblings, and his dad and stepmom are both one of four. Jeromy has fond memories of his grandmother, a cherished figure in her church and community. He speaks with his two sisters, mom, stepmom, and aunt almost every day.
Our families can’t wait to welcome another child into this network of love. Your baby will grow up surrounded by care, support, and family traditions that will help them thrive.
