John & Susan are hopeful adoptive parents from New York waiting to adopt a baby.

If you are pregnant and considering placing your child for adoption, please read the following Dear Birthmother Letter.

Dear Birthmother:

We are very excited you are taking the time to look at our profile! We are Johnny, John and Susan. (For more of a day to day look into our lives, we will be making entries into the Journal section and updating our album with new pictures from time to time.)

While we cannot imagine what you must be feeling as you try to make this difficult and courageous decision. If you choose us your baby will know that he or she was placed with us through your love for him or her.

Love at first popcorn fight:

Well, actually I knew the moment I first saw him. I know it sounds corny but when he walked in through the doorway, I just had a funny feeling in my tummy and I said to myself, “I think he is the one I am going to marry.” I was new in town and had known some of his friends. They kind of felt sorry for me so they asked John to take me out. We went to see a movie with some friends on New Years day and both John and I really did not enjoy the movie so we were quietly talking and got to throwing popcorn at each other. For the next few months, we saw each other almost everyday and could not wait to be together again. Within eight months we were engaged and within the next year were married.

Like most of the profiles you will read, we tried to have children of our own with no success. Adoption was an easy choice for both of us. John’s older sister was adopted and three years ago, we were blessed with the greatest gift of love; our adopted son Johnny. His birthmother will always be our angel and remain in our hearts forever. We keep in touch with Johnny’s birthmother, brother, sisters and Grandmother through phone calls, pictures and letters. We are hoping that we will once again be blessed with this loving gift through the adoption of another baby to cherish.

What we like to do:

John and I grew up from very different backgrounds, yet we have a lot in common. John was born and raised in Eastern New York with his whole family and childhood friends all living nearby. I grew up as an Army Brat and traveled for most of my childhood visiting both domestic and foreign places with my family and friends being scattered all over the United States. John loves the great out doors through boating, fishing, camping and just being outside. I love traveling to new place, meeting new people and learning about the different cultures. Even though we have different interest we have learned to compromise and enjoy doing everything together.

New York City is about hour and an half away so we are able to see a Broadway show and have dinner at any moment. Upstate New York has the great countryside for camping and hiking. Eastern New York has lots of beach areas for fun in the sand. Neighboring states also have a lot of great family places to go.

A great thing about where we live is that there are plenty of theaters bringing wonderful children’s shows to town. Nearby there are several small amusement parks, water parks, museums, zoos, aquariums, and lots of other theme places for families and children.

My loving husband:

What I love most about John is that he is truly a wonderful father; better than I ever imagined. When Johnny was an infant, John custom built a cradle just for him. There are times I find myself tearing up when I see the love in his eyes when he looks at Johnny. To this day, John still gets up during the night to check on Johnny. We sometimes race to Johnny’s room to be the first one to take care of him.

John is truly a ‘hands on’ father. He loves doing things together as a family and being a part of everything that is going on. He is great at making up bedtime stories. He loves building snowman’s, baking apple pies or just sitting on the couch and watching a movie. John is excited to have another child running around the house.

My Darling Wife:

Susan is a very active and involved Mom. She keeps our calendar full of things that she wants to do with us. Either it is doing something in our own community, town, a long weekend trip or vacations. She is constantly visiting the library with Johnny for craft time, dinner and movie night or seeing a local talent show.

Susan is a true believer in education and is always looking for ways to stimulate our minds. She also believes not only educating the mind through books but also through experiences. She loves keeping busy and sharing life’s adventures with Johnny and I.

Susan has always been a child at heart and supports many children charities. Every Christmas she plays secret Santa to a child, and at Easter hides Easter Eggs for neighbor children.

Our Sweet Cheeks:

Where do we begin to explain how lucky we feel to have adopted Johnny? Let’s just say, God knew we needed him and faith brought us together.

He has changed our lives so much!!!

John loves having a buddy to play with; now he has someone who will play with him with the boats in the hot tub. There are times when I observe them playing and sometimes wonder which one is the biggest kid!

Johnny is beginning to ask if he can have a bother or sister and has already picked out names for them. We don’t want Johnny to an only child; we would love to adopt another baby so they could experience the joy of childhood together.

Home and family:

Our home is spacious and is located in a lovely suburban town. When we moved to this home, we imagined filling it with children and toys. We chose to live in our community because of the wonderful family atmosphere. There are so many young couples with children running around playing. We have a private beach and playground within our community for the children. There are events throughout the year to bring everyone together. We also have an excellent school system. Our schools have small classes and focus on the whole child.

Our entire group of family and friends is excited and looking forward to us bringing a new life into our home. We keep hearing the question: “so when is the baby coming?”

In Closing:

The greatest opportunity we can imagine would be having another child to share our lives with. There is nothing more important to us in the world than being good parents and providing a safe and happy life for our children. We promise you that should you choose us; your baby will have every opportunity in life to grow, learn, and become the best person that he or she can be. Whatever your decision is, we want you to know that we respect the path you have chosen. We look forward to speaking with you and getting to know you.
