Dear Expectant Parents,

We truly appreciate you taking the time to learn more about our family as you consider this deeply personal decision. We cannot begin to imagine the strength and love it takes to walk this path, and we hold you in the highest respect.  Since a young age, the gift of adoption has rested quietly in Cait’s heart. After learning more about Cait’s calling to adopt and his own mother’s adoption story, Dustin’s heart also opened to the idea. After being married a few years, we quickly realized God was calling us to grow our family in more than one way.  We were blessed with our daughter, but we've been unable to give her the gift of a sibling. After many conversations and prayers, we've felt God gently leading us toward adoption and readying our hearts for His creative plan for us.

Cait, a pediatric occupational therapist by trade, is passionate about being a stay at home mom and creating a nurturing, playful home, while Dustin brings stability and warmth as a Physician Assistant. We both treasure time together as a family and staying active in and around our community. We pray daily for the growth of our family, alongside our daughter, who is beginning to understand that families can grow in many different and beautiful ways.

Having both been raised in big families, we cherish the warmth, laughter, and energy that comes with having siblings. We fill our days with as much family time as possible doing the things we love most—exploring local playgrounds, finding a new coffee shop or restaurant, spending time at the lake, and making memories through travel.

We cannot begin to imagine the courage, grace, and strength it takes to walk this path, so we hold you in the highest respect. We strongly believe, every child is first and foremost a child of God: precious, intentional, and deeply loved. If chosen, we will make sure this is the forefront of our parenting and will honor your child’s story. We understand this is their most sacred gift, so we plan on helping them share their story when they are ready. It would be our greatest honor to be chosen and to have the opportunity to speak of you with gratitude and the utmost respect, so your child always knows how deeply they are loved—by you, by us, and by God. We are praying for you daily for peace, clarity, and comfort as you walk through this journey.

With gratitude, 

Dustin & Cait
