Hello
I am a single mother and I have four children. My youngest are twin boys that are 10 months old. When the twins were first born I planned on staying in a relationship with there father and that hasnt worked out. I cannot provide the life that my sons deserve and that is why I am strongly considering adoption. There father signed all of his rights away and wants nothing to do with his sons. I want to have an open adoption because I cant stand the thought of never seeing them again or knowing how they are. Also there sisters would be devestated if they could never see them again. I know you all probably think I am a terrible person for this but I am trying to not be selfish. I cant give these babies the life they so deserve and therefore I feel like I need to do what is best for them. I love them more then life and I cant stand the thought of them going without when they deserve the world. I live in Kentucky. If you would like to get in touch with me about this please do. I havent talked to any agencies because I wanted to find a family myself first then get an attorney.

Hi Jenn! :-) Everyone makes the choices that they have to, so you shouldn't feel guilty . . . adoption is one of the most selfless choices anyone can make. We were able to experience this love first hand with our daughter's biological family - they love her more than life itself, but they just weren't able to raise her.

My husband and I are a young, active, Christian couple with a daughter brought to us through the miracle of adoption. I am a stay at home mom and my husband works less than a mile from home so we get lunch with him ever day! :-) We have very supportive families who just love and adore our daughter - so excited about adding to our family!

If you would like to talk more to us,

(((We live in Indiana and we also have an open relationship with our daughter's biological family (just for your info))))

I have always avoided contacting mothers directly. It scares me because I do not want to ever get my hopes up. We can not have children. Our family is incomplete with out them. Our entire life dream revolves around having children. This week we thought we were going to adopt a baby girl privately. She was waiting at the hospital for us, but Bio Mom messed up and CPS took her baby first. It was heart breaking to us, because now we are just another folder to them to choose from. There are so many families for you to choose from. We are working with an agency in Arizona. All we have left is my husband's TB test on Monday and then our case worker will submit us for a foster license. From there we are getting our adoption license. We would love the opportunity to adopt a baby, but that is not always easy so we are highly considering adopting foster children. Although, we live pretty comfortably I will be honest we are overloaded by the cost of an infant adoption unless we find a mother on our own. We are just every day people that work really hard for all that we have. We just feel that our child would benefit from having the money for their education and that is why we are now considering foster adopt. I just want to be a mom and I can not have children. We have so much to offer a very stable home. We started dating at 17 and married at 25. We are now both 29 and have grown up together. We have a very close family. I am a school teacher at a 4 day a week school. My husband owns his own fence company. We have a lot of animals (my babies) from horses to dogs and even a turtle. We recently bought 5 acres to build our 2nd home our dream home for our future family. My mom actually left her career to be at home with my brother's children and is waiting to have a few more grandchildren. My nephew just turned 1 year and my niece is 4. They are very important to my life and will be very close to their “future cousins”. In fact I see them weekly sometimes more. Between my entire family our children will never have to go to daycare. My parents are very supportive and are waiting to help us parent our children. We think this is very important to have such great parents being such great grandparents. My brother is a fire fighter and his wife an OB nurse. We spend all holidays together and even take our vacations together to go camping etc. We love the outdoors. We spend winters camping and summers boating. We are all very close and they are my world. My entire family functions as a support for one another and our children will never be with out. My husband’s family has more than one set of twins. His uncles are twins on his mother's side and his father is an identical twin. If we were to adopt twins we have plenty of advice. We already have a nursery set up in blue and yellow themed Peter Pan. Most husband’s do not get involved in baby decoration, but he was very involved. In fact the whole theme of Peter Pan was his idea because of his great memories of his little sister. I could go on and on I will admit I am a talker. If you would like to contact us feel free. I think you are making a very hard decision putting your children before your own feelings. I wish your family the best whatever road you may take. If you wish to contact me directly you can send us an email to [email protected]

You shouldnt be ashammed of giving your twins up for adoption, I really believe its a brave move on your part. My husband and I are looking to adopt as we are home study approved. We currently live in New Jersey and are ready to expand our family. We are a very close net family as we all live close to each other. We dont have any children of our own as I am unable to have any. My husband and I have been praying for twins as I always dreamed of having them myself but that isnt possible. As far as a open adoption, that would be fine as we stated in our homestudy is we would want the child or children to know their birth parents as well as there extended family. Also as they get older maybe a visit would be nice as you will be as much part of our family as well as the children.My husband works as a tech with mercedes benz, hes been there for 21 years now. He is a great musican, he sings and plays the drums. He also is great with woodwork and is pretty much a handy man. I am a homemaker, a future stay at home mom. I love to paint and draw, as I sold a few paintings back in the day. I also am a musican I play 4 instruments, and a handy woman myself. We love sports as well as animals, we have 3 cats, which we spoil like kids. We are finanially stable and want to have a family, we have everything anyone could want but having no children in our lives the happiness isnt completly there. I would love to have you and your children part of our family and hope to hear from you. This is my email [email protected]

My husband and I have been a couple for 17 years. We have been married for 14 years and I am unable to conceive. I have dreamed of having twin boys all my life. We would love for you to consider us as adoptive parents for your boys. We live in the country and have a strong support system. Having children would make our lives complete.
I can't imagine what a tough decision this is for you but I am here if you would like to talk.
We live in Tennessee.

Jenn,

You have an amazing heart. My husband and I also live in Kentucky , I am a Preschool Teacher and my husband is a Scientist at the University of Kentucky. We have not been blessed with children, however we truly desire to be parents. We would love to get to know more about you and your family. We were just curious how open of an adoption you were thinking about? What kind of parents you are looking for? What race are the twins? Is race important to you in an adoptive family?

Sincerely ,
Krista and Fred

I don't want to rain on anyone's parade, but do you not have family to help you? There are places that you can go and get temporary help also. These kids are 10 months old and even if you found a family tomorrow, they would have to jump through hoops to adopt any time soon.

I'm not saying you shouldn't look at adoption as an option. But you need to see if there is any way you can make it work on your own. I'm a grandmother now and a mother of 7, and I just can't see not helping my kids if they found themselves in the same position as you.

Having a lot of kids is a struggle, and I'm sure you are overwelmed. But adoption is forever.

Hey there Jenn...first of all I want you to know the decision you are making is a very loving unselfish decision one that you can look back on and know it was done from the heart. This post got my attention as to the fact that we are right now fostering twins. I have always wanted twins and never had a set of my own so I knew this foster situation was my calling, and possibly also led me to your situation...I would love to talk with you more about your situation please contact me via email and then we can move from [email protected]

Hi Jenn, what you are considering is a coureageous, loving, and selfless act. This is your decision to make, don't let anyone pressure you one way or another. If you are still considering adoption, please check out our website at www.jordananddustieadopt.com or email us at [email protected]. My husband and I have been happily married for over 9 years and can hardly wait to become first-time parents through an open adoption. Take care and God bless.
Best wishes,
Jordan and Dustie

Hi Jenn-
-I don't know exactly what I can type in this box that could convince you that my husband and I are the perfect match for your twins. We have more love to give than we ever thought possible and while we enjoy being married and the rewards that awards us, we know our family could be even better with the addition of the pitter patter of little feet. I know that you have probably been contacted by close to a million people and I sincerely hope that you find exactly the family you are looking for, but in the even that you haven't yet feel free to contact me...

Hi,
I would love to talk to you if you haven't already found parents for your boys. You can contact me at [email protected]. We are also in KY and have been trying for our own children for years with no luck. Good luck with whatever you decide!

I would love to talk to you if you have not found homes for your boys. I am for open adoption and constent exchange of pictures and letters if this is what you want. I know it is hard to give up your little ones. My home fills so empty since my son met an new girl and is getting married. He took my 2 granddaughters to live with him now. I still have guardianship over them but want things to work out for them. I got the girls when they were 7 months and the other one was 2 years old. Now they are 8 and 10. I get them on weekends and they live 3 houses down but I still miss having little ones underfoot. I can offer a happy and loving home with plenty of outdoor activities. We live in Haines Alaska a small town. Contact me at [email protected] if you want to talk further.

We'd love to talk to you further, if you are still looking for a family-we have a 3yr old bio daughter, and our 2nd bio daughter was stillborn last year at 41w. Due to stillbirth and my own health issues when pregnant, we've decided to not have any more bio children. My husband and I both have wanted to adopt, and even began the process before we had our first daughter.

Please feel free to email me at choofymama @ gmail.com (no spaces) We would 100% want an open adoption, with as many visits, letters, pics, phone calls, etc as you wanted.
