Dear Expectant Mother,
Thank you for considering our family for your baby. We want you to know how brave, strong, and loving you are. You are making one of the hardest decisions on this side of heaven, and we deeply respect and honor you as you consider adoption for your precious child. We can only imagine the whirlwind of emotions you may be carrying, often all at once. What you are doing through adoption is a profound act of selfless love. It is courageous, compassionate, and not something to ever feel shame over. You are making decisions from a place of pure love for your baby, and that is something we admire more than words can express.
We are Chrystian and Lea, and we’ve been married for nine wonderful years. We met in high school at a student-led Bible study, and from that moment on, our lives have been woven together. We truly are each other’s best friend. We love spending time together; whether that’s cooking a big meal for our family, taking care of our two beagles, or snuggling up on the couch with popcorn to watch a movie. Chrystian enjoys hunting, yard work, and grilling for family and friends. Lea enjoys baking sourdough, watching Gilmore Girls, and gathering family or friends around for a fun and sometimes competitive board game. Together, we serve as prayer partners at our church, something we cherish because it lets us pour love, faith, and encouragement into others.
We have walked the road of infertility, and although IVF was presented to us, we never felt led to pursue it. Instead, we waited on God’s timing, trusting that He would lead us exactly where we were meant to be and that led us here, to adoption. Adoption has been a part of our story long before this moment. Chrystian’s dad was adopted, Lea has cousins who were adopted through foster care, and Chrystian’s aunt works for an adoption agency. Adoption has touched our lives in so many meaningful ways, and we have always felt it would one day be part of how we grew our family.
Our journey through infertility has had its difficult moments, but through it all we never questioned God’s faithfulness. Even when we didn’t understand, we trusted that He was guiding us to something purposeful. Today, we see that purpose clearly. We feel so ready, excited, and honored to grow our family through adoption.
Thank you again for considering us. We pray God guides you, comforts you, and surrounds you with peace as you make decisions for yourself and your baby. Whatever you choose, we want you to know that you are loved, supported, and seen.
With love and prayers,
Chrystian & Lea
