Francisco & Kathryn are hopeful adoptive parents from Texas 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 The two of us would like to- thank you for taking the time to-consider us as the adoptive parents of your child. We understand that the decision that you are making is going to be one of the toughest ones in your life. The following letter is just going to give you a glimpse of what we, as a loving-couple, can provide for your child.

Frank and I are soul mates. Our paths crossed so many times without ever meeting. One day we ran into each other at local college hangout, which my Mom likes to call a "social occasion." Frank tried to get me to go out with him. After 4 or 5 months he finally prevailed. Once I gave into his persistence, we were inseparable. We joke about the phrase "you complete me", but in our case it is true. Frank balances me. I am a driven person. I want things done a certain way and I expect the best out of myself, Frank brings me down to earth. When I am with frank it is plain silliness. We have the best times together.. Frank and I love to go shopping for anything, traveling, spending time with our family, and of course spending time with each other. After about a year of dating Frank asked my dad if he could have my hand in marriage. My dad of course said yes. We were engaged for a little over a year and then were married in my family church with 500 of our closest friends. After the wedding Frank and I knew that we wanted to start a family. We didn't put any pressure on ourselves. We tried and tried but nothing. Our friends were starting their families and we still weren't blessed with a child. About a year ago we started with medical intervention. Even though we are both perfectly healthy, we weren't successful. I blamed God, work, myself for not being able to have a baby. Finally, after all the prayers and "what ifs", I realized that God's plan for us is to adopt. It really wasn't a hard decision once I got through our pain of not having a child naturally. What I can guarantee you, as a woman, is that your child will be loved, nurtured and protected. This is my promise to you. This child will be welcome with open arms into our home and our family's home.

When I think of my life with Kathryn, I truly count my blessings. I am the first in my family to go to college, the first to own a home, the first to do many things. I have visited many places, learned many things, but the single most important thing that ever happened in my life is marring Kathryn. We met and stated dating and only six months into dating we began talking about marriage. I think the single most important thing that defines our marriage is that we are best friends really. We laugh, we joke, we tell
each other our problems, and we cry on each other shoulders. In short, we are everything to each other. We complete each other as well as compliment each other. We couldn't be the people that we are without each other, but one thing is missing. Since the day we became serious, we began talking about children; how we would raise our children, what we would do in certain situations, and how we would handle certain things. As the years past and still no children, we blamed it on hectic work schedules, stress, and many other things. Our friends around us starting having children and we still waited. We never got bitter as we always knew that we would be blessed. Finally we decided to go see a specialist. Physically there is nothing wrong with us, but for some reason we have been unsuccessful in having children. So we come to the part of our journey that brings us here. . . to you.

Journey of Parenthood Are we going to be great parents? We hope so. We were both lucky enough to be raised in loving homes by our parents and have a great template to start with. Are we going to make mistakes? Probably; we will be first time parents and all first time parents make mistakes. We will love him or her as our own and raise him or her as our own. We believe in discipline and accountability. We believe in being fair, because that is the way were raised. Education will always be stressed in our home because it is so important to us. We will have great expectations because without great expectations, great achievements can not happen. That beings said, we will always foster and support whatever our child wants to be. We promise that we will do everything in our power to give your child a supportive, loving home to grow up in. We also feel that it is important for the child to know who they are. In short, that means knowing who you are. We are open to keeping you up to date with the child's progress and achievements. We would like to thank you again for taking the time to learn about us. We wish you the best in your search.

Thank you and God bless

Kathryn and Frank
