A Whole New Profile

We don't really expect that a birth mom is going to waltz into LDS Family Services one day, spot our profile,  and fall in love with us.  Which is why we put so much effort into finding a birth mom on our own.  In spite of Wayne saying that we will be using our pass along cards as coasters for the rest of our lives, we have given out hundreds of them.  We also have our online profile at www.itsaboutlove.org.  We have our family and friends looking out for us and helping us make connections to potential birth moms.  Thanks to all of you for your help and support!  We aren't just wishing and hoping that someday we will adopt.  We are planning, praying, and working toward that goal. 

Our latest addition to our finding tools is a profile at Parent Profiles.  We've had it up for a few days so far, and it gets a lot more attention than the one at LDSFS.  One reason is that there are less than 250 couples on there, and only a handful are from Utah.  We actually got an email from a potential birth mom within a few hours of our profile being published.  It was very exciting, but she is having a boy.  Too bad for us.

One cool part about our new profile is a section called our "journal."  One thing that they suggest is putting in entries from other people who know us.  So, if you want to write something nice about us, then you can be part of our profile, too.  Just email us a paragraph or two, and we will put it on there.  You can even include a picture of yourself!  Or I just might have to dig one up. . .
