Dear Birthmother,

Hello, our names are Dean and Pam. We can’t imagine what you’re feeling right now, but we admire the time you’re taking to consider families for your child. After the birth of our daughter Julia, we knew for sure that we wanted to have more children, but we’ve been unable to continue building our family biologically. We’d always thought about adoption and we are excited to grow our family by adopting our second child.

About Dean and Pam:
Even though we lived our entire adult lives in the same small city and owned companies down the street from each other, our paths never crossed. We are both traditional, family oriented, hard working business owners, fun-loving, active and social. Even our birthdays are only one day apart! After a blind date and six months into our relationship, we knew that we were meant to spend the rest of our lives together. Eight years ago, we married in the Cayman Islands and have been discovering a life together ever since.

We are very family-oriented and enjoy many of the same hobbies such as swimming, boating, snow skiing, and scuba diving. We are Christians and attend a Catholic church. We love being parents and look forward to including your child in our traditions and family life

About Pam:
Pam is a very kind hearted and fun loving individual with a compassionate and caring soul. She is committed to family and is an extremely devoted mom. She truly enjoys the simple pleasures of motherhood such as playing or reading to Julia. She is a kid at heart, herself.

Pam is very creative and always encourages Julia to explore her own creativity. Her artistic background shows throughout our home. She always displays a welcoming, homey environment. During the holidays she loves decorating, cooking, and making it very festive.

About Dean:
Dean is a very positive and fun loving person who always wears a smile. He is an incredibly supportive and nurturing person. He is a great father to Julia and is extremely involved in her life. He loves being surrounded by friends and family. He enjoys inviting folks over during the holidays and special times during the year.

Dean has always been a very hard worker; he is a self employed home builder. At a young age, he was taught that hard work built character and integrity. Dean always strives to be fair, reasonable, and forth-coming. He also carries those traits into his personal life.

About Julia:
We feel Julia is a wonderful, typical three year old. She has an amazing zest for life. Every new experience completely excites her and we love watching her enthusiasm. She is very lovable and affectionate toward people. She has a great interest for nature and all animals including her two dogs Jake and Baxter.

Like all three year olds, Julia is extremely active. She will love having a brother or sister with whom she can interact.

About Our Home:
We live in a lovely four-bedroom home, on a cozy cul-de-sac, in a wonderful neighborhood in Pennsylvania full of children and near high academically rated schools. Our neighbors are a close knit group of friendly, family oriented people. We have an acre lot with a beautiful open back yard with lots of room for kids to play. Our home is a warm and fun place to be and is a regular social spot for holidays and gatherings.

About Our Family:
We are fortunate to have both sides of our family live close to us. They all are very much a part of our lives, and we enjoy getting together often. We feel blessed to still have both sets of grandparents in our lives, also aunts and uncles in the area that are very supportive and caring. All of them would be extremely overjoyed to welcome another child into our family.

In Closing:
More than anything else, we want you to know that if you decide that you want us to be the parents of your child we will love him or her with all of our hearts. We promise to love your child and show him or her a world filled with joy, laughter, promise, security, and above all, the love of family. We will give your child our full support and encouragement to fulfill his or her dreams.

We’re open to sharing letters and photos. We’d love to talk with you and hear your hopes for your child. You can contact us through Lifetime at
