Hello & Thank You,  


Thank you for giving us the opportunity to share a glimpse into our lives. First and foremost, we want to express our deepest gratitude, as being considered in your adoption journey means more to us than you may know. The love you have for your child is undeniable. Though we cannot know the challenges you are facing in making this decision, your love, strength, and courage stand out the most. We truly admire you. 


We are Luke and Cassi and our four-legged fur baby, Sully. We’ve been together for 16 years and married for 3. After years of infertility, adoption feels like the right path for us. From a young age, we always knew adoption would be part of our journey, and now, after much anticipation, we’re filled with excitement and hope. We truly believe the younger versions of us would be proud of the direction life has taken, and we are eager to open our hearts and home to a child. 


Adoption is a lifelong bond, and we promise to cherish it. We are committed to creating a safe, loving, and nurturing home where your child can grow, explore, and thrive. We will inspire curiosity, embrace individuality, and encourage them to follow their dreams. We will also surround your child with the people who will love them through life’s challenges and triumphs. 


Our home will be filled with love, laughter, and family traditions, including cozy nights by the fire, bedtime stories, adventures in our camper, and Sundays by the pool. They would always be encouraged to be their true selves, follow their passions, respect themselves and others, and always know they are valued. We will teach them kindness, empathy, and the importance of family. 


Most importantly, we will always talk openly and lovingly about the love and sacrifice that led you to choose adoption. We want your child to know how deeply they are loved, both by us and by you. 


Thank you again for taking the time to get to know us. If we have the opportunity to meet in the future, we would be excited to learn more about you. We know this is not an easy decision, and we are grateful for your consideration. We are keeping you in our thoughts and sending you strength and peace during this time.


Sincerely,


Luke & Cassi

    • Our Story

    We met in middle school—Luke in 8th grade, me in 7th. At a mutual friend's house over winter break, I was drawn to his funny, charismatic nature, though girls weren’t his priority at 13. Soon, my shy, sweet personality won him over, and he asked me out.


    We became best friends, sharing school dances, friendships, and growing up together. Our parents thought our young “relationship” was silly, but by high school, we saw a future together. We joked, “I wish I met you when I was older,” fearing life might pull us apart. But the bond of friendship and trust we built has lasted.


    After 11 years, Luke proposed in a sunflower field on a hot August day. Nervous, though he knew the answer was YES, we still revisit the field to remember where our forever began.


    During COVID, we canceled our original wedding plans for safety and exchanged vows at a family friend’s home on a beautiful fall day. Tears flowed before we even walked down the aisle. The day was filled with joy, but the most special part was having Luke’s dad officiate our wedding, making it even more meaningful.

    • We live in a charming village of just over 3,000 people, where life feels slower, simpler, and more intentional—offering a peaceful retreat from the fast pace of everyday life. It’s safe, welcoming, and full of community, the perfect place to raise our family.


    Our home is a spacious three-bedroom, two-bathroom house with an open-concept design that brings us together. The kitchen is the heart of our home—Cassi loves to cook, and I am always eager to try her meals. Cassi also loves to decorate and transform our house during each holiday. She does a great job making our house feel cozy and festive.


    Our family-friendly street is surrounded by other young families, creating a close-knit neighborhood that comes alive, especially during the holidays. Halloween is a highlight, with hayrides and tractor rides for trick-or-treating.

    

    Our backyard is a sanctuary for fun and relaxation. Fully fenced, it provides a safe space for little ones and our dog, Sully, to play. There’s room for future additions, like a playset, and in summer, we enjoy our above-ground pool, often hosting pool parties with friends and family.

    Our community blends small-town charm with forward-thinking ideals. Neighbors greet each other by name, and local events foster a strong sense of belonging. We embrace diversity, celebrating a wide range of cultures and perspectives, and our annual local festival showcases this with music, dancing, food, arts & crafts, and a lively parade.


    We're lucky to live in a place rich with opportunities for growth and recreation. Our top-rated schools, all within walking distance from our home, provide excellent education and support. Families take pride in supporting local sports teams and academic events.


    Just down the road, a beautiful park offers year-round activities, from "Music in the Park" in the summer to ice skating in winter. The park also features a fishing pond and scenic trails for outdoor enjoyment. Our town offers a welcoming atmosphere with endless opportunities to learn, grow, and connect - a perfect place to raise a family.

    • Luke's Family

    Luke's Family

    I was born and raised in Wisconsin, where family, faith, and hard work are deeply ingrained. Growing up in a close-knit family has shaped who I am today. My parents, married for 36 years, are my role models—living examples of love, commitment, and partnership. They still live in the same home where they raised me and my three siblings, creating a foundation of love and stability we all cherish. They worked hard to give us an incredible life, teaching us to make the most of every situation and pursue our passions, always supporting us. They’re already excited to become grandparents, a role they’ll embrace with the same joy and devotion they've shown me.


    As the oldest of four siblings, with an older sister and a younger brother and sister. I grew up surrounded by energy, friendly rivalries, and endless laughter. We built strong bonds that have only deepened over time. Today, all my siblings live nearby, and we often gather for family events and holidays. None are married or have children yet, so they’re eagerly awaiting the day we grow our family and can’t wait to spoil our future little ones. The love and support of my family has always been our greatest strength, and I’m excited to see it grow as we enter this next chapter.

    

    Another very special family member is my 90-year-old grandma, full of spunk, sass, and love. She has a large family tree and hopes to add more great-grandchildren. Her energy and wisdom are a blessing to us all, and she remains a central figure in our cherished family memories.

    • I grew up in a non-traditional household, raised by my incredible single mother, who poured her heart and soul into raising my brother and me. Through love, sacrifice, and unshakeable determination, she built our lives from the ground up. My mom is extraordinary—generous, loving, and tireless in ensuring we had the opportunities she dreamed for us. She taught us the value of hard work, perseverance, and family and instilled a deep sense of pride in everything we do and where we come from. Her constant support has been invaluable, and she’s eagerly awaiting the day we become parents. Living just down the road, she’s already claimed her spot as the official babysitter!


    I was also surrounded by my mom’s large family—she comes from a family of six, so there were always aunts, uncles, and cousins around. Many of my cousins are not only family but also my closest friends. We’ve shared countless memories, and our family continues to grow with new little additions that bring even more joy.

    

    As the oldest, I took on a maternal role with my younger brother. He jokes that I "mothered" him most of his life, and he already envisions me as a mom. He’s especially excited about becoming an uncle and seeing his excitement only strengthens my anticipation for the future.

    • Meet Sully 

    We adopted Sully, our 3-year-old golden retriever and collie mix, from a rescue in Houston, Texas, and he has brought joy to our lives ever since. With a personality as vibrant as his energy, Sully is our "lover boy"—sweet, playful, and full of spunk. He loves his toys, especially his banana and pizza-shaped plushies, and he’s incredibly smart. Ask him to find his pizza, and he’ll dive into his toy box, determined to bring it to you.


    Sully thrives on activity, especially walks, where he’s known as the "neighborhood greeter," happily wagging his tail and making friends with everyone. He gives gentle “baby hugs” instead of jumping up, always melting hearts. His favorite place is our family cabin, where he roams freely, hunting down the perfect stick. Halloween is a special time for him—he loves helping us hand out candy and soaking up attention from the neighborhood kids.


    We can't wait for Sully to become a big brother. With his gentle nature and loving personality, we know he’ll be the perfect companion for a little one to grow up with.

    • Early in our relationship, we discovered our shared love for traveling and experiencing new cultures and places. Over time, we’ve slowly checked off bucket list destinations, starting with exploring the beauty of Wisconsin. One of our favorite spots is Door County, a peninsula surrounded by Green Bay and Lake Michigan, known for its stunning sunsets, scenic hiking trails, and small-town charm.

    

    Our travels have taken us farther, from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan to the rugged beauty of Maine and the breathtaking Smoky Mountains. Recently, we found a new favorite way to travel—camping in our camper, our "home on wheels." It allows us to explore at our own pace while giving us space to unwind and enjoy each other’s company. Whether waking up in a quiet forest or enjoying a campfire under the stars, camping offers a special experience, and we can’t wait to see where the road takes us next!

    • Family Traditions

    Our lives are rich in traditions, and we love celebrating life's milestones and holidays together. Cassi finds so much joy in hosting friends and family at our home, and she's organized numerous events, from Halloween parties to birthday and pool parties, game nights, and holiday celebrations.

    Christmas is partially special for us, not just because it marks the time we began dating but also because it's a season of cherishing what we have and those around us. Every year, the weekend after Thanksgiving, we cut down a Christmas tree together, all bundled up, searching for the perfect one. We also enjoy making Christmas candies with our families and decorating cookies is a favorite tradition. My mom bakes dozens of cookies, and we spend an afternoon decorating together.


    My family's cabin in northern Wisconsin has become the center of many memories and annual celebrations. The season kicks off by celebrating my dad's birthday and opening the cabin for the season. On the Fourth of July, the whole family gathers for a long weekend of outdoor games, beach time, and a fireworks show we put on. It is truly one of our happy places.


    We also prioritize spending time with my 90-year-old grandma. Every week, my parents have dinner with her, and we attend whenever we can. We love hearing her stories and learning her beloved cookie recipes, she makes a new bath of cookies every Sunday.

    • We love embracing all four seasons and finding fun activities to do year-round. In the winter, we go to Titletown where we enjoy sledding and ice skating near Lambeau Field. When summer arrives, we like to go hiking on Eagle Trail in Door County. We also love to go to the beautiful beaches on Lake Michigan and the Bay Beach amusement park. When we say goodbye to summer, we welcome apple picking, pumpkin patches, and fall football. Sports are deeply woven into our community, and game days are filled with tailgates, food, and cheering for the Green Bay Packers, which is a cherished tradition.

    Kerstin - Wisconsin

    By Brittany Carvalho • December 21, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , My name is Kerstin, and I'm so grateful to you for considering me and my son Malakai as a possible match for you and your child. A single person might not have been your first thought for your child, but I have just as much support and love to give as a couple would have - or even more! My life is rich with family, friends, and opportunities. I have a successful career that provides my family with the resources to explore the world and experience new things. I would love the opportunity to share these wonderful experiences with your child. Malakai (Kai for short) was adopted at birth and is three years old. We have an open relationship with his birth mom and often send her pictures and videos. I am open and committed to whatever type of communication you would like. I want you to know that your child will always know their adoption story and the love you have for them. I am happy to answer any questions you have so that you can make the best decision for you and your baby. As you'll see in this profile, I have a deep love and appreciation for all different cultures, and I love to learn about people and places all over the world. Travel has been a big part of my life, and I also appreciate and value diversity close to home. We live on a street with families of many different backgrounds, and the schools and businesses in our neighborhood also reflect that diversity. I love languages and have studied Spanish and Haitian Creole. The public elementary school closest to our home is a dual immersion bilingual school (Spanish and English). I would love for Malakai and any future child I might have to attend this school because I highly value bilingual language skills and the opportunity to build relationships with classmates and teachers of many different backgrounds. I am committed to honoring and valuing your child's cultural background and ensuring that it is an important part of their daily lives. I pray often for you and your journey. I thank God for you and your decision to consider adoption. I pray for God to give you peace and comfort. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me and Malakai and see if we might be a good match for you and your child. With Love, Kerstin

    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

    By Brittany Carvalho • December 14, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , Hello, and thank you for taking the time to consider us as adoptive parents for your baby. We are so excited to be adopting and bringing a child into our family! We can’t begin to understand the weight of this choice and want you to know that your child's well-being is our top priority. Please understand that we wish you and your child all the best no matter what you choose. We hope this book gives you a glimpse of our family. We are Andrew and Julie. We have been together for eight years and married for five. After five years of infertility struggles, multiple fertility clinic visits, and miscarriages, we are ready to give our unconditional love to a child and expand our family through the miracle of adoption! Education, love, and respect are the core values we hold dear. We will encourage your child to explore their passions, embrace their heritage, and pursue their dreams. Our home will be a place of unconditional love, where open communication and understanding are paramount. We are prepared to become parents to a precious child and can’t wait to share our love of family with them. Many family members and friends are excitedly waiting to welcome a new baby to cherish. We want you to feel welcome and hope to get to join our families together for all the love. Your child will have the support of a large, connected family.

    By Brittany Carvalho • December 13, 2024
    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

    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

    Michael & Christi – Texas

    Hello & Thank You , Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about us. While we cannot say we understand the emotions, decisions, and journey you are facing, we recognize and honor the enormous gift you are sharing with a family like ours. We are Christi and Michael. We have been together for 6 years and married for 4. When we first started dating, I shared with Michael that biological children might not be a possibility for me due to the reproductive issues I had experienced. When Michael stated without hesitation that he was open to adoption, I knew he was someone special. After trying the recommended fertility treatments to ensure we were never left wondering, “What if?” we started our adoption journey feeling relieved and confident this was the path meant for us. Part of what drew us to each other was how we viewed our families and our desires to have a family of our own. Both of our lives have been touched by adoption in various ways. Therefore, we knew we were ready to start our adoption journey. In 2023, we welcomed our daughter, Isabel (Izzy), into our lives through adoption. Izzy has brought so much joy, laughter, love, and fun to our lives ever since. We are so grateful to have been chosen as Izzy’s adoptive parents and are blessed to guide her on this journey of life. We believe it is important for your child to understand their adoption story from the beginning and look forward to letting them know how truly special they and their birth family are to us. We welcome an open adoption as we value the relationship between a child and their birth family. Children can never have too many people who love and support them. We have established a small group of friends who have young, adopted children and enjoy meeting them throughout the year. We believe it will be valuable for our children to have the opportunity to be around other adopted children throughout their lives. There are adoptees in that group, and we talk openly with them about their experience as adoptees to help us gain insight into their perspective. With a large family nearby, your child will be loved and surrounded by many family members, friends, and a faith community. In addition to providing your child with unconditional love, we hope to instill the qualities of honesty, integrity, faith, kindness, the value of family, and perseverance. Both of us come from hard working families where we each learned to be independent, responsible, and self-sufficient, knowing we always had our families supporting us. We appreciate your time and continue to pray for you and the decisions that lie ahead. You are a beautiful person, and you are giving an invaluable gift. We hope you feel the love and peace you deserve. Sincerely, Michael & Christi

    Hello & Thank You , There's no way for us to begin understanding your life, struggles, and victories. Hopefully, we can play a part in one another's stories- sharing and growing through all the ups and downs that this world has to offer. Know that if chosen, we will love your child unconditionally and fiercely protect and shelter them all the day of our lives. This whole process feels a little surreal, and finding the perfect words to say them is a challenge. Thank you, though, for even looking at this book and taking a peek into our lives. We want to reassure you that we have the utmost respect and admiration for you, regardless of the path you choose. We are confident that whomever you choose to raise your baby will be the perfect fit! Regardless of where each of our lives goes, we want you to know you are continuously in our hearts and minds. After struggling with infertility and going through several fertility treatments, we made the decision not to pursue IVF. We felt like God was pulling on our hearts to bring someone into our lives in a different way. After much prayer and conversation, we decided adoption was the clear path, and we're excited to grow our family this way. Following the completion of our home study and application with Adoption Angels, we were in disbelief one morning when Alexandra took a pregnancy test, and it was positive. However, during our daily evening walk that day, we both knew that we wholeheartedly wanted to continue to pursue adoption. Alexandra comes from a large family where many of her brothers and sisters are close in age, her brother Russ being a mere 18 months apart from her. Growing up so close in age, we were less siblings and more partners and crime- each other’s best confidants and adventure buddies as we traveled the world with the military. The loyalty, utter love, and connection we feel toward each other are hard to explain, and to this day, my siblings and my brother's wife are my best friends. We would be over the moon excited to raise children who would experience this bond and feel the same love and closeness. It’s becoming clearer to us every day that this is the path God has been leading us on all along. Know that no matter how a child comes into our family, we plan to love them exactly as we love our son, Adrian- with every fiber of our being! Thank you again so much for reading our story! Aaron & Alex

    Brandon & Melody – Texas

    By Brittany Carvalho • December 8, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , Our names are Brandon and Melody, and we are so glad to meet you! We can’t fully understand the weight of the decision you’re facing in making an adoption plan, but we deeply admire your courage and strength. What you are considering would bring immense joy to a family who has likely spent years longing for a child to love. Please know we are praying for you and your child, and that God will grant you peace in whatever decision you make. Through this letter and album, we’d like to share a bit about ourselves and why we’ve chosen adoption. We met and married in southern California and have been married for 12 years. Since moving to Texas, we’ve built a loving home and community here. We believe God called us to be parents, and while our path to parenthood has been unexpected, adoption has always been on our hearts. Melody was adopted at birth and understands the incredible blessings of adoption firsthand. After five years, many tests, and three failed IUI attempts, we began pursuing adoption. In December 2023, we were blessed to adopt our son, Aiden, and our lives have been forever changed. Now, we hope to adopt again to share our love with another child and allow Aiden to grow up with a sibling. If chosen to be your child’s adoptive parents, we promise to raise them in a loving Christian home, teaching Biblical principles and morals. We’ll provide opportunities for them to grow, learn, thrive, and develop a deep sense of love, respect, and responsibility, all while offering unconditional love and support. Additionally, Melody can uniquely answer any questions your child may have about their adoption as they grow. We are surrounded by a large, loving network of family, friends, and a supportive church community who will joyfully welcome your child into our lives. Melody’s experience as an adopted child makes her especially sensitive to the importance of understanding one’s roots. If chosen, we hope to develop an ongoing relationship with you and walk alongside you in this journey. For years, we prayed for a child to join our family, and God’s answer came when Aiden came into our lives. We are excited to see what He has planned next for our family’s growth. Thank you for taking the time to consider us as parents. Please know we are praying for you, your child, and your decision, whatever it may be. Sincerely,  Brandon & Melody
