Zach & Rachel - Texas

Hello & Thank You,  


Thank you for taking the time to open our book and getting to know us and our family. Our names are Rachel and Zach, and we have a six-year-old son, Evan. We cannot begin to understand what you are currently going through, the array of emotions and pain you may be experiencing, as we ourselves have not walked in your footsteps. However, we want you to know we will do our best to appreciate the difficulty this season of life brings while loving, encouraging, and supporting you every step of the way. 


Zach and I talked about adoption early on in our marriage. I am an adoptee and have many different variations of adoption within my family. Zach always understood and supported my desire to someday adopt. However, adoption wasn't etched in stone until being able to have more biological children was taken from us. The night our son, Evan, was born, I experienced some extreme complications resulting in not being able to conceive again. Nearly five years and lots of therapy later, God has mended and opened our hearts to grow our family again. 


While we may not fully understand everything that happens in life, we have no doubt whatsoever that this is exactly where we are meant to be! Our goal is to raise a healthy, well-adjusted child in a stable and loving Christian home. We long to give Evan the opportunity to be a big brother and have his own best friend to grow up with walking through life. We will commit to giving your child every opportunity we can to thrive and learn. We promise to always put their well-being above our own and love them immensely. Again, we thank you for taking the time to get a glimpse into our lives by viewing our profile book. You are in our hearts and prayers during this season and in your journey. 


We know you are considering all your options in doing what is best for you and your child. We have prayed for you and your son/daughter every day. We look forward to the possibility of being a part of this journey with you!


Sincerely,


Zach & Rachel

Meet Zach

Meet Dan

Dan is the most amazing person on the planet. He is everything that I ever wanted in a husband, and our son, Garrett, is so lucky to have him as a father. He is kind, patient, and hard-working. He loves to spend his free time playing with Garrett and teaching him new things. I am 

so proud of the parent he is; Dan was meant to be a father. 

Meet Zach

I love that Zach has such a kind, and giving heart, not just to me and to his son, but to everyone who knows him. He is one of the most selfless and tender-hearted men I have ever known. He is willing to help with whatever, wherever. His persistent efforts to do right by our son makes him a great father in my eyes. He constantly strives to teach Evan the importance of hard work, healthy boundaries, and accountability; yet takes time to engage with him about school and play and wrestle with him. Zach really is the complete package!

    • Our Story

    Our interest in each other sparked in a library. We attended the same school in North East Texas since fourth grade but were not drawn to each other until we both worked as library aides during our senior year. I noticed Zach’s love of reading, maturity, and easy way of making conversation. He loved my quick-witted intelligence and assertiveness.


    After we graduated Zach immediately joined the United States Air Force and was stationed in Delaware for the first two years before transferring to the Texas Air National Guard near Houston. Those years apart were hard, but our bond grew, and we developed a strong relationship.


    We dated for a long time and as the years passed, it only reaffirmed that God placed us together for good. Zach proposed on Christmas night in 2013 after everyone except my parents had left the festivities in the living room. His proposal was memorable and emotional for everyone (especially my father who got teary-eyed).


    We got married that next month and love each day we get to have together. We’ve been best friends for over 17 years and our strength as a couple comes from being best friends and being able to tell each other anything!

    • Meet Evan

    Evan just finished kindergarten this year and enjoys reading, playing soccer, T-ball, and making friends. He is adventurous, full of energy, and has overcome many obstacles, as this year has brought about many changes. He loves traveling, hiking, and exploring the outdoors.


    Evan has an avid love of superheroes, his fave being Spider-Man and the Avengers. He enjoys Pokémon and is acquiring quite a collection of trading cards. He also enjoys Legos and building with his daddy. Evan will make a terrific big brother. He has a huge capacity for love and protection. He has proven to be a big helper around the house and is excited to help when the baby comes.

    Our Home

    We live in a quickly growing rural area just northeast of Houston. Our home is a cozy, modern, three-bedroom farmhouse nestled on two and a half acres. Our favorite part is that we have some space between our neighbors. This means lots of room to run around, plus a huge playset, for Evan and his future sibling!

    ļ»æ

    We take pride in our home and enjoy improving it with renovation projects as well as maintaining it. We truly love our home and it's a perfect place to raising a family.

    Our Community

    Our Community

    Our lakeside community is full of retirees and young families with children. We find that almost everyone is friendly and quick to offer help, advice, and resources. Our community features miles of nature trails and shoreline with boat ramps, fishing piers, playgrounds, a community pool, BBQ pits, picnic tables, and sports fields. Throughout the year, our neighborhood holds community events for the whole family. We are also minutes away from Evan's elementary school.

    • Zach's Family

    My family is scattered between North Houston, Dallas, Austin, and East Texas. I have one brother,

    3 sisters, 3 nieces, and 2 nephews. Two of my nephews live in North East Texas and we see them about every three to four months. My other nephew and nieces live in North Houston, so we see them more often. Both my parents live in East Texas and love spending time with Evan as much as they can. Everyone usually gets together around the holidays. The kids love to run wild together.

    We enjoy taken camping trips and gong to the lake. The cousins love to swim and explore outside.

    • Rachel's Family

    My side of the family has grown through adoption, as my brother and I were adopted. Most of my family resides in North East Texas, and my parents have 40 acres, where Evan loves to run around and play. My brother lives in a small town nearby along with my niece and twin niece/nephew. I also have numerous cousins, aunts, and uncles several of whom were adopted as well. We are a tight-knit family and all will be involved in the baby's life and fully support our adoption. We love visiting each other and just spending time together, taking the kids to the park, or meeting for a meal. On average, we see them every four to eight weeks.

    • Meet Our Pups

    We have 3 dachshunds. Oscar is a short-haired red dapple who has a huge personality (He didn’t realize he wasn’t a human for the longest time, haha)! He is playful and patient with Evan.


    Diesel is a short haired black and tan dachshund from our local rescue. He is full of spunk and loves to give kisses to all he meets!


    Our newest rescue pup is Jackson “Jack Jack”. He came to us at around 10 months old, and he and Diesel have been inseparable ever since. They truly seem like long lost litter mates. Oscar is especially thrilled since Diesel now has someone as active as him to play. Jack completes our pack and is an excellent brother to furry and humans alike. :)

    • Our favorite thing to do as a family is explore new places and make memories. We love celebrating holidays, swimming and being outdoors. We also enjoy doing everyday things around the house such as projects and having "family yard workdays" or simple things such as running errands. We’re usually most content spending time together being homebodies and enjoying the life we’ve built together.

    • Explore the Outdoors

    Hiking and camping are truly becoming foundations of our family activities throughout the year. We go camping in Arkansas and Garner State Park with extended family on a regular basis. We prefer the mountains but love the beach as well. During the summer we make regular trips to Crystal Beach which is becoming a tradition that includes both sides of our extended families.

    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

    Ronnie & Gracie - Texas

    By Brittany Carvalho • December 18, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , Thank you so much for taking the time to learn more about us as you embark on this journey. Though we could never imagine what you're going through, the courageous, compassionate, and generous spirit you display is inspiring. We are Gracie and Ronnie - a young, active, and goofy family of two. We moved to Texas shortly after getting married and have been trying to grow our family by two little feet ever since. After undergoing years of tests, procedures, and treatments, we believe that adoption is the path that the Lord has chosen for us. Although we initially thought we would have biological children before pursuing adoption later in life, after much prayer and surrender, we have come to realize that adoption is a joyous and fulfilling way for us to grow our family. Our home is a place of warmth, love, and laughter, filled with travel adventures, cozy cuddles, and delicious baking. We eagerly pray to welcome a child into this nurturing environment. Both of us have flexible work schedules, and Gracie is excited to be a stay-at-home mom when our family grows. We are blessed to have close relationships with our family and friends, many friends we even consider to be family. Several of our friends have young children or are in the process of starting their own families, and we can’t wait for our children to have built-in best buds! We have been lucky to find everyone in our lives overjoyed for us on this journey of growing our family through adoption. Any child that is welcomed into our home through adoption, will be welcomed also into our large extended families with excitement and love. We promise to pray for you and your baby every day. We promise to talk openly about adoption and the selflessness and miracle of how any child comes to be in our family. If we have the privilege of meeting, we would be honored to hear about your life story as well. With love, Ronnie & Gracie

    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

    Adam & Jaime - Wisconsin

    By Brittany Carvalho • December 16, 2024
    Hello & Thank You , We are Adam and Jaime, and we wanted to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude for considering us as adoptive parents for your child. We can only imagine how incredibly difficult this decision is, and we admire your courage and strength during this challenging time. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about us. We have been married for 11 years and together for 13 years. Adam and I knew early on in our relationship that we always wanted to be parents and start a family. Our journey to parenthood has been a challenge for us. Over the last ten years, we have had four failed IUI treatments, five failed IVF treatments, and two miscarriages. Through all our failed attempts to start a family, we continued to support each other and remain resilient in our desire to become parents. We believe that adoption is the path meant for us, and we are grateful for the opportunity to potentially welcome a child into our loving home. We are excited to begin the journey of parenthood with open hearts and open arms. Our home is filled with love, laughter, and a strong sense of family. We have many aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents who are eager to welcome a baby into our family. We promise to provide your child with every opportunity to thrive and grow, surrounded by unconditional love and support. We have been eagerly anticipating the opportunity to expand our family through adoption, and we are committed to providing a loving and supportive home for your child. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for considering us. Your strength and selflessness are truly inspiring. Thank you, Adam & Jaime

    Andrew & Julie - Iowa

    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. Thank you for taking the time to read through our book, your consideration means the world to us. We wish you strength and courage during this journey. Sincerely, Andrew & Julie

    Spencer & Amanda - Wisconsin

    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

    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
