"We want to say thank you from the bottom of our heart. We recognize the selfless sacrifice and decision you are making. We have a tremendous amount of admiration for the strength and courage during this process. It is important for us to be open to them about their roots, background, and story, and especially the importance of you. They will be loved and cherished, nurtured and guided. Fostering revealed our devotion to caring for a child, biological or not, as our own. Our hearts grew when our son was born, and we know they will grow more when another little one comes. Love we couldn’t imagine will fill our entire being. We wish to give our son a sibling he can bond with and share stories with. We can’t wait to see what incredible things await with the blessing you are trusting us with. You are the reason this is happening and regardless of how we all got here, we will be with you as you cross the finish line and celebrate your strength. We have prayed for you and this child for years and will continue to." Maddie and David.
