Waiting Parents

Bethany .. waiting in Massachusetts
Dear Expectant Mother,
This must be a very difficult time for you as you struggle with a decision that will forever impact your life and the life of your unborn child. Whatever you decide, know that I respect you and thank you for your decision to give your child the gift of life. I can only imagine that this process has been difficult one and that you are committed to looking after your baby’s well-being.
Thank you for this opportunity to tell you a little about myself. I would welcome an opportunity to meet with you personally to answer any further questions you may have.
I am a single woman in my late thirties; I have never been married. The one thing that I have always dreamt of, since I was a child, was being a mom some day.
I am at a place in my life where adoption is the right choice for me. I have a wonderful 3 bedroom home on an acre of land, in south central Massachusetts. The back yard is perfect for a child, or children, to play. Both of my parents are still alive and healthy; they live just a few towns away from me. My brother, Dan and his wife live nearby in Connecticut. My oldest brother, Dave, lives in Washington, but he comes home to visit at least once a year.
I work as a Vice President at a software company. I have been with this company for five years; it is owned by one of my cousins. I have a very large extended family, which includes over 50 first cousins! Everyone is 100% supportive of my decision to adopt and will welcome any child into the family with open arms. Also, the child that I adopt will not be the first member of my extended family to be adopted.
In my spare time I enjoy being outside, working in the garden, going to the mountains and going to the beach. I like to take weekend get-a-ways to visit new places and see new things. I am also an avid amateur photographer, so I usually have a camera close at hand.
Most of all, I like to spend time with my family and friends. I believe that I have much to offer a child. Unconditional love; unlimited one-on-one attention; a stable, warm, comfortable and nurturing home environment; a loving extended family of grandparents, aunts, uncles, a bunch cousins and close friend. I look forward to sharing family vacations, holiday gatherings, and celebrations to mark special occasions with a child of my own.
Thank you for considering me as a potential parent to your baby. Whatever your decision, I wish you well and pray for your baby’s safe arrival.
Sincerely,
Bethany
