Hello & Thank You,  


Thank you so much for taking the time to learn about our family. We cannot imagine the choices that you are faced with right now, but we hope you find all the support you need during your journey. 


Our names are Sharon and Christian, and we have a sweet, snuggle-loving pup named Sadie. We have been married for five years and together for just over nine years. I knew Christian was the one when I spoke to him a few months into dating about my scariest secret: that my medical conditions would prevent me from carrying a biological child. When he looked into my eyes and told me that he would love any child in our lives, no matter how they came, I knew he was the one for me. Having spent the time to strengthen our relationship and marriage for several years, we both know our hearts are ready to love a child unconditionally. 


Even before we met, Christian and I both had a goal to adopt. He has both an aunt and a sister who are adopted, making him appreciate all the love he would have missed without adoption. I have worked with many adoptive families and children in the process of being adopted. Seeing the love in these families and the impact on the children have inspired me for years to welcome a child into my heart through adoption. 


Christian and I both come from large families that are absolutely thrilled at the possibility of welcoming a new child. Our close friend groups have also given us an incredible amount of support. They are a second family to us. Many of them have young children who call us Aunt and Uncle, and our friends are excited to become aunts and uncles themselves. 


We envision raising a child to include fun bath times, reading to them, and snuggling as much as possible. I am so excited to teach our child Spanish in hopes that they will be bilingual, so many Spanish books will be present, and I hope to primarily speak Spanish around them. 


Christian and I want to give them every opportunity possible. We have a home full of love and fun. There is never a day, or even an hour, without laughter and snuggles galore. Our friends and family exponentially increase our love and support and are there for us through everything. We cannot wait to bring a child into our lives to give him or her all the love and support they could ever desire. 


We appreciate you taking the time to consider us and pray you feel at peace with your decision.


All our love, 


Christian & Sharon

Meet Christian

Meet Christian

Christian is my rock in life and my best friend. From the moment we met, I felt like I’d met the other half of my soul. I’ve always been a little more reserved with new people, but with Christian, we had the instant trust and comfort to be able to talk about anything. The honesty and openness in our relationship are what makes our relationship so strong and are qualities we will have in the relationship with our child.


I could not imagine moving through life with anyone else. Christian is an amazing partner who makes me laugh every day and is my forever optimist, always showing me the good in the world. Much of the time, he is goofy and silly, and he has a huge heart and is very protective of those he loves.

I cannot wait to see Christian as a dad. He has spoken for years about wanting to coach our child’s soccer team or cheering at a recital. He will be our child’s biggest fan. I know he will be an amazing dad and love our child with everything in him.

Meet Sharon

My wife, Sharon, is my biggest supporter when I need someone to lean on and my biggest cheerleader during my successes. She is one of the most compassionate and nurturing individuals I have ever met, and her unending love showed me early on in our relationship that she was the one. Sharon’s stubbornness and passion are a force to be reckoned with, but she uses them to protect those around her. I have seen her spend hours at the stables with someone else’s horse who was injured because she couldn’t just leave it in pain and bring home clothes to wash from families at the hospital who can’t get to a laundromat. I have been lucky to find such an intelligent, compassionate, and adventurous person who has always matched my goofiness and desire to make life fun and exciting.


I am so excited to see Sharon as a mom. She has worked with children for years, but there are always certain kids with whom she truly bonds. . She mothers and takes care of so many children, animals, family, and friends, but it hurts that we don’t have a child. Her level of excitement to having the chance of being a mother through adoption is one of the purest things I have ever seen. The amount of unconditional love that I expect Sharon to give to a baby makes me even more excited to be a father.

    • Our Story

    Sharon and I met on Match.com after we both almost gave up on the site. Thankfully, we stuck it out, and after messaging back and forth a few times, we finally went out on our first date. At the restaurant, we realized we were both sports fans, and we kicked off some playful betting right away. After dinner, we went straight to the country dance hall, where we spent the next few hours two-stepping, laughing, and having a great time together. From that date, we both knew what we had was special, and we were ready to spend the future together.


    From early on in our relationship, we discovered that our favorite and most relaxing place to be together was on a beach. After spending a few days wandering through the Florida Keys, I worked up the courage to ask Sharon to marry me. I proposed to Sharon on a beautiful beach at night while a lightning storm raged in the distance.


    We officially tied the knot five years ago on a perfect day in June. On the day of the wedding, it started to rain as guests began to arrive. Fortunately, a few minutes before the ceremony started, the sky cleared, and we left a beautiful and sunny outdoor ceremony that was perfect. After we said our I Do’s without too much tearing up, our families had a wonderful time the rest of the evening dancing, eating great food, and enjoying two families coming together for the first time. Since our wedding day, we haven’t looked back once and can’t wait to see what life gives us next.

    We have been blessed to own a beautiful home in a safe and friendly neighborhood. Inside, we have 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a play area off the living room. Outside, we have a fenced-in backyard with a large deck for barbeques with family and friends and an area for a swing set or play house. Christian has long hoped to use the front yard as a place to play soccer with our child. Both the front and back yards have massive oak trees to shade our outdoor activities during the Texas summers.

    Christian's Family

    I grew up in a big Hispanic family in Brownsville, Texas. My parents have been married for 39 years and still live in Brownsville. I have three siblings: an older brother, a younger brother, and a sister, who have moved out to Eugene, Oregon. My older brother is in nursing school, and my younger brother runs a farm. My sister is still in college and traveling the world after her time in the Coast Guard. We talk, text, and Facetime often with my siblings since we live further away. We are planning a trip to Oregon to see them soon, and we are excited to spend time together. They are so excited to become aunts and uncles!


    Growing up in Brownsville, I grew up in a Hispanic culture with a large family. My siblings and I all attended K-12 Catholic School. I loved growing up down the block from my extended family of uncles, aunts, grandparents, and cousins. Spending so much time with my extended family was one of my favorite parts of growing up in Brownsville. When we see my parents, they come to visit us often, but we love it when we go to Brownsville and see my entire family. This is also something that I hope to continue as a parent by having friends and family around to be a part of our child’s life.

    • My family has always been my biggest support system. I grew up outside of Dallas in a smaller suburb with my dad, mom, and little brother. My mother and father met in Dallas and have been married for 38 years. My brother is now an engineer in Seattle. I speak with both my parents and my brother at least weekly, and they are thrilled to become grandparents and an uncle. In fact, my mother is already planning a baby quilt. We see my parents 3-4 times a year, although I suspect that may increase with a child. My brother visits for the holidays and over the summer for our family trip to Port Aransas.


    I have always been very close with my extended family. We went on summer vacations with my cousins, aunts, and uncles. I was also fortunate to have a close relationship with my grandparents, who often babysat us. On my mother’s side, our family is so extensive that her second cousins have grandchildren, so when we get together, fifty to sixty people arrive. I love reunions with them and the support and love my entire family surrounds us with. I cannot wait to introduce our child to our family.

    • Meet Sadie

    We would love to introduce Sadie, our loving pup! We adopted her two years ago and have enjoyed watching her transform from a sweet, shy girl into a loving, outgoing dog. Sadie truly loves life and gives everyone she meets a kiss and a hug. She has made it very clear that she has a special place in her huge heart for children. Whenever children come to our home or she sees them in the park, everyone else is simply ignored. Her whole body language changes, and she even has a unique tail wag around them. If she hears a child crying, she will become inconsolable until she sees they are safe.

    ļ»æ

    Sadie will be the most wonderful big sister and protector any child could ask for. She loves to spend her days cuddling and playing with her toys. She is also very protective of her humans, and if someone is sick or sad, she will never leave their side. We know she will be a loyal partner in crime.

    • One of our greatest pleasures is to be able to explore the world together, whether our adventures are closer to home or around the world. We love to go to basketball games or the US Men's national soccer team when they come to town. Around Texas, there are also many national parks we love to explore. With our love of animals, we love exploring animal experiences at zoos where we can interact and learn more about the animals.

    Christian and I have gone on many trips both in the United States and internationally. Our most recent ski trip was to Colorado, where, admittedly, Christian skied, and I fell, but it was still fun! We loved meeting the lovely people of Jamaica on our honeymoon. I recently earned my scuba diving license, and we visited the Bahamas. He spent the week kayaking and paddle boarding while I went deep to look at the fish. We can’t wait to show a little one what the world holds and help him or her explore the wonderful cultures it has to offer!

    • Our Friends

    We have amazing groups of friends, some from as far back as high school and others more recent but just as special. Christian loves to have poker nights and participates in fantasy football leagues with his friends. I love going shopping and to dinner with my friends, but since so many have young children, some of our favorite outings are with the kids! My friends’ kiddos call me “Aunt Sharon,” and we love going to Sea World or the rodeo together. We also go to restaurants with outdoor play yards and take turns watching and feeding the kids.


    Our friends already form a strong support network in our lives and will continue as we start a family. We are both lucky that our friends are not only supportive of us and our relationship but also extremely excited and supportive of us becoming parents. While our siblings live in different parts of the country, the children of our friends who live in town will provide an amazing community for our child to grow up in and build strong relationships with those around him or her.

    • Our family has a tradition of going on summer vacation with my extended family in Port Aransas that goes as far back as the early 1980s. Going to the beach was also a tradition for Christian’s family growing up in Brownsville. Of course, our traditions blended seamlessly together.


    Our family reunites for a vacation to keep in touch as we live far apart. We celebrate "Thanksgiving in July" to give thanks for our time together. Christian has embraced this tradition and we enjoy a simple feast in our beach wear. Spending time together with our extended family makes every summer memorable.


    At Christmas, we love decorating our house inside and out. Our tree is decorated with ornaments we buy at each place we travel and for important moments. Adding ornaments representing our wedding, vacation, or even an old ornament from a grandmother makes our tree special. We can’t wait to add baby ornaments with new memories!


    Our family usually gathers at our home for Christmas. As a tradition from both sides of our family, we always eat tamales on Christmas Eve. We are hoping to take classes this summer to learn how to make them ourselves and teach our family!

    Andy & Mandy - Wisconsin

    By Brittany Carvalho • December 23, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , We want to thank you for taking the time to get to know us. While we cannot imagine the feelings you have or will experience in your decision to create an adoption plan for your child, we hope you feel loved and supported, and we personally want you to know how brave and selfless we think you are. We are Andy and Mandy, and we currently share our home and lives with 2 very different yet equally fun and snuggly doggos, Sophie and Maxx. Andy and I have been married for 8 years and together for just over 20 years. Our early years in our relationship were spent having fun, growing as individuals and as a couple, and then establishing our careers. We knew early into our marriage we wanted a family. We tried for years to grow our family on our own, but through many different tests and treatments, we realized that may not be something we are able to do. Throughout our relationship, we had always been open to adoption; many friends and family have shared their journey with adoption and fostering, so our hearts were always open to this, and we have seen that biology doesn’t define the love and care provided to a child. Because of our family's experience in adoption and fostering, we know the importance of your child understanding their birth story, where they came from, and how truly special they and their birth family are to us. If you decide to make an adoption plan with us, we want you to know how loved not only your child will be, but also how cared for and supported you will be. We are so grateful for your time and hope that our profile provides you the insight into our lives, the people we are, and the love, care, and security we can provide. We want to offer you our sincerest support and wish for you to know what an honor and blessing you may be giving our family we are chosen to be the adoptive parents for your child. Sincerely, ļ»æ Andy & Mandy

    Bob & Leslie - New Mexico

    By Brittany Carvalho • December 20, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , We’re Bob and Leslie, and we are so thankful you’re taking the time to read about us and consider our family for your adoption plan. We can’t understand everything you are feeling right now, but we know that you are trying to find the right path forward for yourself and your child. We hope we can be a part of that. If you choose us to raise your child, it will be the greatest blessing of our lives. We’ve been married for sixteen years, and we’ve always wanted to grow our family. After a few unsuccessful years trying to conceive naturally, we went to a fertility clinic. We took a lot of supplements and tried multiple rounds of IUI and IVF, but they were also unsuccessful. Conceiving was not in God’s plan for us; that was difficult and sometimes hard to accept. But we both still knew that we wanted to be parents, so we began learning about adoption and speaking to friends who have adopted children, which is how we found Adoption Angels. We have also been fortunate to have friends who were adopted themselves and who have given us insight into adoption. We want to be parents because we know growing up can be so difficult. We want to be there for your child when they need support, encouragement, help, and advice. Or when they just need to know that someone cares about them, loves them, and will always be there. We want to help them discover things they love and see their own talents. We want to nurture their interests so they can pursue things they are interested in and enjoy, to help them lead a happy and fulfilling life. We will do everything we can to ensure your child grows up in a safe and supportive home, surrounded by our community of friends and family. We strongly believe in setting a good example for how to be ethical and honest, providing a good education, and the chance to travel and see the world. Finally, it is important to us that your child always knows the story of their adoption, to know where they came from and who you are as well. That’s why (if you agree as well) we believe in regularly sharing photos, emails, update letters, and annual in-person visits. We promise that if you decide we are the right choice for you and your child, they will always know that the way they came into our family was through an incredible act of sacrifice and love by you. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to introduce ourselves! We are excited and eager to become adoptive parents. We can’t wait to welcome a child into our home with all the love and support we have to give. Sincerely, Bob & Leslie

    Hao & Amy – Texas

    By Brittany Carvalho • December 19, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , First off, let's introduce ourselves. Our names are Amy, Hao, and our not so little man James Paul. We want you to know how grateful we are to you for looking at our book. Our goal is for you to get to know who we are in an honest and real way. Adoption has a complex variety of feelings for all parties involved, especially for you. We can't begin to understand the emotional and overwhelming circumstances you have had to face in making these difficult decisions. We want you to know we support you and think that what you are doing is selfless and generous beyond comprehension. From an early age, I knew carrying a child to full term would be highly unlikely. So, when we met, having children was a part of our early conversations. We always wanted a family and knew adoption was going to be how we would become parents. This led us to adopt our beautiful and sweet son, James. We have so much more love to share with another child, and James is waiting with open arms and a welcoming smile. Our upbringing has significantly shaped who we are today, including our parenting style and how we plan for our future. Both of our parents are still married, and observing their relationship through both happy and challenging times has taught us the importance of commitment in maintaining a long-lasting marriage. Our family includes no shortage of caring aunts, fun uncles, and many young cousins to grow up with. One thing you can be certain of is DOTING GRANDPARENTS!! We are blessed that we can go to anyone in our family for guidance, advice, and support. You could not ask for a more dedicated crew of family members. We promise to you that we will honor you in the way you deserve. We will share with you the progress of your wonderful and cherished child's life. You'll be part of their life story from their earliest days to the questions that arise with growing curiosity. Your role will always be respected, valued, and cherished. We hope that our book gives you insight into who we are as people and as a family. Our very different strengths will lead to us raising well-rounded children. Together, we will teach them the importance of acceptance and kindness to those around them while still allowing them to be independent and able to stand up for themselves. Hao and I share the greatest hope of raising our children and providing them with safety and security, all with an embarrassing amount of love and affection. Thank you for considering us; we could not do it without you. Sincerely, Hao & Amy

    Mike & Tiffany – Texas

    By Brittany Carvalho • December 18, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , First, we want to thank you so much for considering us to be the parents of your child and for taking the time to learn a little about our lives! We can't imagine what a difficult time this must be for you, though we don't know what you are feeling. However, we do know that we admire your courage and strength! We are Mike and Tiffany, a fun loving couple from Texas who have been together 10 years and married almost 9! We spent many years trying to conceive a baby on our own, and with no luck, we didn’t want to wait to grow our family any longer. We chose adoption rather than going through IVF and were blessed with our first son in 2022. The experience we have had with his adoption has been so wonderful, and we can’t wait to give him a brother or sister. We have always wanted a big family, as both of ours are relatively small, and we are so grateful for this adoption opportunity because, without it, we wouldn’t be able to have that. Tiffany is a stay-at-home mom currently and will continue to do so. She loves being able to be so involved with raising our children and growing a special bond from the beginning. Also, her parents and grandparents live next door to us, so they will always be surrounded by love and family. We promise to provide your child with a safe, loving home with fun adventures and a wonderful education. We will always be honest with them about where they came from, how much you love them, and how that love brought them to us! We will keep you and your child in our prayers, and no matter your decision, we wish you the best on this emotional journey. Love, Mike & Tiffany

    Matthew & Lindsay – Tennessee

    By Brittany Carvalho • December 17, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , First and foremost, we are so grateful for your consideration. While we cannot imagine all that you are going through, we support you. While we may never fully know the sacrifice you are making, we are grateful. We have longed to build our family for many years, and it is truly humbling to have you get to know us. We always knew that adoption would be a part of our family, and it has proven to be the biggest blessing in our lives. After we were married, we discovered that we had unknown fertility issues, and that was our sign from the Lord to choose to grow our family through adoption. We adopted our daughter Caroline at birth almost three years ago, and she has brought so much love and joy into our home and family. Now, we have hopes to bring home another sweet blessing, and we know that Caroline will be the best big sister! Our home is full of laughter and fun, and we truly love to spend time with each other. We strive to keep the Lord at the center of it all, and we have a lot of love to share. Our families have been so supportive, and they also cannot wait to add another baby. We do not take this decision lightly and consider raising a child the greatest privilege. We admire your courage and see your strength. If we are chosen to parent your child, we ask for grace, and we thank you for the bravery you display. As much as your child may become a part of us, they will always remain a part of you. We want them to know that. Whatever decision you make, may you know that you are loved and that you and your baby's lives are precious. We've prayed that your heart, mind, body, and baby would be safe and loved and that you would be covered in peace during it all. With love and grateful hearts, Matthew & Lindsay

    Hello & Thank You , Just saying thank you isn't enough for us to express our gratitude for considering us to be adoptive parents. We cannot begin to understand how difficult this decision is and that it is not taken lightly. No matter your decision, you are in our thoughts and prayers. We are Amanda and Spencer. We have been together over ten years and have been married for three. From the very beginning of our relationship, we talked about starting a family, but God had different plans for us. Unfortunately, Amanda has faced health challenges that have led to infertility, which won't allow us to have our own biological children. Adoption has touched both our lives in meaningful ways. Spencer's mother was adopted, and she is ecstatic that we are pursuing this path. In addition, Spencer has two adopted cousins, and I have one as well. Both of our families are loving and supportive of our decision, and we are all ready to share unconditional love with a child. Since we both have relatives who were adopted, we believe it is important for your child to understand their adoption story from the very beginning. We look forward to sharing with your child just how special they and their birth family are to us. The relationship between a child and their birth family is significant, and we strongly support an open adoption. There is no such thing as too many people to love and support a child. Raised in the Catholic faith, we plan to instill the same values in our future child. We cherish faith, family, community, friendships, and love, and we will teach the importance of hard work and the achievements it can bring. With both our families and friends nearby, your child will be surrounded by a loving network of support. Thank you for the time to read our story and consider us as potential adoptive parents. We wish you peace on this journey and the very best for you and your child. Sincerely, Spencer & Amanda

    Hello & Thank You , We are Damon and Amanda, and we thank you for taking the time to learn more about our family. We can't imagine how hard this choice must be, and we have SO much respect for you. Your courage is truly admirable. We hope our story will be helpful as you make your choice. Please know that no matter what you decide, we wish you and your child nothing but the best, and you will both be in our prayers. We would love to share a little about ourselves, and hopefully, this book will give you a clear picture of who we are! We have grown so much during our years of marriage! Our journey has included buying a house, starting new jobs, surviving a pandemic, experiencing years of infertility and loss, going on many trips, and so much more. Throughout the highs and lows, our relationship has only become stronger. We feel very blessed to have wonderful parents and grandparents who model healthy relationships. They have taught us invaluable lessons and instilled strong morals in us. From the beginning, we have known that we wanted children and planned to have them at a young age. However, we faced three years of infertility and treatments, which ultimately resulted in loss. Going through it all taught us many important lessons and brought us even closer to each other and to God. We have always wanted to adopt, and we feel that now is the right time to do it! For us, raising a child means reading books together before bed, quality family time, lots of outdoor adventures, supporting whatever dreams he/she may have, and a home full of laughter. We value communication, kindness, and passion. Our goal is to create a loving environment that inspires creativity and curiosity, embraces differences, and opens opportunities for learning and growth. Our home is filled with warmth, love, laughter, and support. Adoption means a lot to us! It represents strong people who love a child so much that they come together to build a wonderful relationship, ensuring the best care for that child. We have inspiring adoption stories within our extended family and friends, and we are grateful for their incredible support as we embark on this journey. Our utmost hope is to be the family that provides hope, love, support, and care for your child. We promise to raise them in an encouraging, safe, and loving home, striving to be the best parents we can be. We will encourage them to follow their dreams and support them every step of the way. Your child will grow up knowing their story and understanding just how loved they are by all of us. We can't express how grateful we are to be considered as potential adoptive parents for your child. Thank you again for reading about us! Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. Sincerely, Damon & Amanda

    Will & Lorena - Texas

    Hello & Thank You , We are beyond grateful for you considering us as prospective parents. Please know that what is best for you and the baby is the most important thing throughout this process. We can only imagine the difficulties that come with this decision, but please know that your child will be loved without qualification. We are so excited to begin our adoption journey and bring a child into our family. We are Will & Lorena, and we have been together for almost 7 years. Our path to adoption starts with Will being adopted himself at birth and from a young age, knowing that this was always going to be a part of his family plan. As we began to discuss having a family, Lorena was concerned about getting pregnant due to her infertility diagnosis, so turning to adoption was an easy call for us to start our family. The values that are most important to our household are love, kindness, and respect. Ensuring that, above all else, people are treated equally will be core to the teachings we share with our child. We want to encourage them to be curious and welcome diversity in all forms and to do so with a smile. Both of us love to laugh, and we want our child’s life to be filled with those unforgettable moments. To us, adoption is a beautiful journey shared by all parties involved. We are lucky to have extremely supportive friends and family to guide and join us on this journey. With Will’s own experience, including his relationship with his birth mother, we know we are lucky to have tremendous examples to mentor us along our own path as we welcome a child into our family. Should you choose us to welcome your child into our family, they will be unconditionally surrounded by love and warmth. We appreciate you taking this time to consider us as prospective parents, and should you choose us, we are prepared to listen to, support, and honor your wishes throughout this process. Sincerely, Will & Lorena
