Joshua and Randi’s Letter

Dear Birth Mother,

We are prayerfully thrilled that you are considering adoption. While we can certainly understand what a challenging decision this is and how heavy it must be weighing on you, we are thankful that you have chosen life! It is such a blessing to love a child in many different roles. Our hope is always that you may be a part of your child’s life, and we even pray that if it is possible, you may choose to parent. We are here for the circumstances that do not allow for parenting – whatever those may be – without judgment.  The bond you have with your child is special, and you will always feel that connection as the mother who gave birth.

We are Josh and Randi O’Dell. We have been married nine years. We met at a local gym when it was too late to actually be working out. Josh dropped a note on Randi’s car and asked her out, but said it’d be ok if they were just friends (he would not have been ok). Through our nine years of marriage, we have grown in the Lord and with each other in only a way God can orchestrate. We are the deepest of companions and enjoy each other.

Josh works for an electric company doing inspections on transmission lines. His schedule is Monday through Thursday, and he has Fridays off. He is a hard worker but has always valued time as a father more than anything else. Randi stays at home and homeschools. We have five children, one who is adopted. They are all wonderful children with each of them having gifts and personalities all their own. Siblings are such a gift, and the love they give to one another is special and lasting. Your child would be a part of a large family which has so much to offer by way of love and attention.

We belong to a local church and are active in the nursery, service, and several other capacities. We value life lived with one another in a local church.

We want to thank you again for choosing life. Know that we are praying for you, your child, and your circumstances.

Josh and Randi O’Dell
