Will and Kelly

Dear Birth Parents,

First of all, I want to say how much we admire you. We have so much love in our hearts for birth parents and the sacrifices they make for their children. Without your willingness and strength, our dream of becoming parents may never be realized. For that, there is much love for you and your decisions.

We respect your inspiration and truly believe that your decision needs to come from your heart and needs to be personal to your wishes. We want you to take that time to make the right decision for yourself and not for any other outside party. You and the baby come first.

We believe that adoption brings many wonderful people together. In our opinion, the child is lucky to have us and you! We want our children to know where they come from and about their family history, not only about us but about you. Please feel free to talk to us openly and honestly about your desires on openness in adoption. We want your comfort to be considered as well as our own and to come up with a suitable situation that fits everyone’s needs, but most of all provides a fully enriched life for the child.

We want to adopt for many reasons, so giving you some background might help you get to know us better.We are also more than willing to answer any questions you might have. Will was born in the South and grew up there for most of his childhood. I, Kelly, was raised in Utah and have lived here my entire life. Will moved to Utah with family at the age of 15. We met when Will had been home from his mission for the LDS Church for a year.We were married in June of 2004 in the Manti Temple. We have been married for 5 years now. We love the time we spend with each other and we are grateful to be in each other’s lives.

What Kelly says about Will….. Will loves the outdoors. Any opportunity to go out and do something in nature, he is there. He is very smart. He retains so much information that he beats me in Trivial Pursuit every time! Will is hilarious! He is always making me laugh. He loves to cuddle in the morning, which makes me smile. He still loves me even though I have gained a little bit of weight since we got married :) He gives me back rubs and never expects any in return. Now that is true love right there!

Will has been the best thing to happen to me. He is devoted and loyal. I know that he will be there for me. He has taught me so much about life and has broadened my horizons in ways I have never expected. He teaches me new things every day. He is patient with me and helps me through the hard times. He is supportive of my decisions. He protects me when I need it. He has a strong work ethic. He is a dedicated provider for our family and has such a desire to take care of all our needs and even sometimes our wants. He listens to me talk and talk and talk and talk....oh and talk. He genuinely wants me to be happy. He sacrifices for me and never complains. Will is open to others and is a great example on how to not judge others. He is charismatic and fantastic, but most of all, he makes me happy and I never want to be with anyone but him.

What Will says about Kelly… Kelly is a wonderful woman. Bright and energetic. Full of passion for the things she enjoys and likes. She loves to learn and to teach. She's good at it too. She helps keep us on an even keel. Where I am weak, she is strong. Where I falter she is steadfast. She goes on and on about how smart she thinks I am, but what she doesn't know is that marrying her was quite possibly the smartest thing I've done.

We've gone through up's and down's, but my life has been so much better with her in it. What she won't tell you is that she is a brilliant cook, when she cooks. Her caramels are to die for, and she can produce a perfect replica of Outback's Alice Spring's Chicken. She is kind and caring, and will often times listen to me when no one else will, regardless of how unimportant or boring the subject may be to her. I'm pretty sure she knows more about ducks than she cares to!

I like her willingness to learn and grow and to try new things. Her with her hair is always a surprise, but she has good taste, and never disappoints. She is a great woman and a lot stronger than most would think.

Adoption will change our lives and bring so much joy to our hearts. We have been through so much. I have always struggled with fertility related issues. We tried for 4 years to conceive and bring a child into our home. I have suffered 2 miscarriages along the way. We finally decided the Lord had different plans in mind for us. Adoption was decided upon and almost instantly we felt so much emotional relief in our lives.

Adoption has become my passion. I have studied every aspect of it and have grown to love the concept along with all the people involved with the process, caseworkers, birth parents, adoptees, advocates, adoptive couples. Adoption is an amazingly spiritual and loving thing and we will forever be changed by its beauty.

Please consider what would be best for your life and your situation. Make sure you trust yourself and your feelings, guiding you to the best plan for you and your baby. If that is us, please let us help you in any way we can. We want to show that love for you we already have in hearts. We want to build a relationship with you and hope to one day call you family. We pray for your success and for the support you need and if we can be that for you, we will.

Thank you so much for considering us and please ask if you have any questions about us.
