Scott & Amelia are hopeful adoptive parents from Louisiana waiting to adopt a baby.

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

Hi! We are Amelia and Scott. Thank you so much for taking the time to get to know our family. We greatly admire all of your love, dedication and strength in choosing a loving family for your adoption plan. You are truly an angel for giving us the opportunity to bring another precious miracle into our lives and to share all the love in our hearts with a new member of our family. We are excited to have the opportunity to talk to and meet you in person to answer all of your questions so that you feel comfortable with making this brave and heroic choice for your baby.

About Us We would like to begin by sharing with you a little about us and our relationship. We began dating in college, 16 years ago, and have been happily married for the past 10 years. We were lucky enough to have experienced “love at first sight” that has not faded with time. We love and support each other in every aspect of our lives and have a very stable relationship that we feel will be a good example for our children. We want to build for them a secure and unshakable foundation filled with unconditional love that they can take with them throughout their lives. We believe children should grow up in a supportive environment that fosters love and happiness in both good times and hard times. We have always wanted to have a big family. We show our love for each other and for our daughter every day through both our words and actions. Our family is the most important thing in the world to us. We feel so blessed to have the chance to build a family and to shape the lives of our children.

About Scott Scott is the most loving, loyal and patient person I have ever known. He also has a very fun and silly side that is very endearing. We giggled through most of our wedding. We enjoy planning fun vacations and activities for our family and he is always the first one on the roller coaster and down the water slide. His calming and reassuring personality always has a way of making any difficult situation seem temporary and worth while. He can always find a positive lesson or silver lining in these situations.

Scott is a social worker and does a fantastic job of listening and supporting his clients no matter what they may be facing. I am always surprised at the dedication and energy he has left at the end of the day to dedicate to our “family time”. Every night at the dinner table, Scott, myself, and our daughter, Ainsley take turns sharing the highlights of our day. He listens as intently on a Wednesday night as a Sunday night no matter what else he has heard during that day. He is a wonderful father and appreciates the time we spend together as a family.

I also admire him for his patience and attention to detail. Scott never gets frustrated with any project, no matter how complicated it is or how long it takes. He enjoys gardening and takes extra time to ensure the yard always has fresh flowers planted and looks great! Some other things he enjoys are his various “projects”, bike riding and swimming.

Another admirable trait is that Scott always seems to choose the “right” path, even if it is not the easiest. He always chooses honesty and integrity in any situation. I feel that I am a better person for being with him and really admire that he stands up for what is right and what he believes in.

He is also very friendly and generous and would do anything for anybody. I cannot even count the times he has helped people move and comes up with ways to help his family and friends. He even planted and weeded all of a neighbor’s flower beds because she was older and he knew it would be difficult for her. I feel so lucky to have a husband like Scott. He is my best friend and my soul mate.

About Amelia
Amelia and I met through a mutual friend in college. When we started dating, one of Amelia’s qualities that drew me to her was her funny wit and personality. Amelia is truly one of the funniest people I have ever met. She always has a friendly smile on her face that others notice and appreciate so I love spending time with her because of that. Amelia is a Physical Therapist who is great at her job; she enjoys people and people enjoy being around her. People open up to Amelia. There are times we go to a dinner party or another gathering of some sort not knowing anyone. By the end of the night, Amelia has made new friends because she has a genuine quality that others see. Another quality that I love about Amelia is that she is supportive and a great listener. No matter what Ainsley, I or any of her friends needs to talk about, she will listen providing a supportive and open ear.

Amelia is also one of the most genuine people I know. It’s rare these days to find someone truly honest with great morals and values. Because of these morals, values and honesty Amelia is a wonderful mother and wife. She is a great role model and teaches these qualities to our daughter which we believe Ainsley will carry on with her. Amelia is a great mom. She spends quality time with Ainsley and is so excited about the opportunity to raise another child in our family. Some of Amelia’s hobbies include arts and crafts, playing tennis and putting activities together for Ainsley.

About Ainsley Ainsley is our amazing four year old daughter. She is fun, energetic and most of all cannot wait to have a baby sister or brother! She constantly wants to buy things at the store for her sibling and has a list of things already she wants to show them. This year she has enjoyed swimming, dancing and playing T ball. She loves to play with her friends and has frequent playdates with some of her friends from school as well as the children in our neighborhood that are always in and out of the house playing. We live on a very kid friendly street with plenty of young families with small children to play with.

Ainsley enjoys going on vacation to spend time with family and friends especially if it is a trip to the beach. However, she is very disappointed if it is a trip that is not puppy friendly and she has to part with our dog, Sadie. Sadie is her favorite playmate of all! Whether it is dressing her up as a princess or playing fetch in the backyard, they certainly have a good time together.

About Willis and Sadie
Our two puppies are Willis and Sadie. We have had them both since before Ainsley was born. They are both very sweet and snuggly and are very used to being climbed on, dressed up and fed “like a baby” so they are very gentle and safe for children. They both enjoy going for long walks, car rides, treats and playing in the backyard.

Our Home
Our home is a nice place to live. It’s warm, cozy and full of love. We live in a suburb of a major American city. There is a lot of culture, history and wildlife that makes it a great place to grow up. The street we live on is a side street that does not have a lot of traffic so it’s safe. There are many children on our street and there is always someone to play with. We are pretty laid back and are always active with our daughter. Some of our favorite activities we like to do together are riding bikes, going to the zoo and aquarium, taking our summer vacation to the beach, playing sports and visiting with family. Children need to be creative and active so we encourage that. We are in a great position to bring another child into our home. We are loving parents with great support systems and friends. We are both open and honest and try to lead by example.

Our Family
Our family focus is communication which we feel makes a family strong. We’re teaching Ainsley that she can come to us with anything and that we will be supportive of her. We’re also teaching Ainsley the importance to accept and help others. We are both involved in healthcare so Ainsley hears what we do for a living and how we help people on a daily basis. We also provide gifts to other families around the holiday season so Ainsley learns that the holidays are not about receiving but giving.

Spending time with family is something we enjoy. When we are together, our family enjoys cooking, playing games, swimming and just "hanging out" together laughing and sharing good times. There are some very excited future grandparents, cousins, aunts, and uncles who can’t wait to snuggle and welcome a new baby into our family! We are very close to our family. Our parents, brothers, sisters, nephew and niece are very excited and supportive of this adoption. Everyone already has something special they want to do with the baby when he or she arrives. Our parents cannot wait to love and spoil their new grandbaby! There is no doubt this baby will be surrounded with love and support from all.

Thank you again for taking an interest in our family and we look forward to talking with you soon. We LOVE being parents and can’t wait to welcome a new baby into our home!
