Dear Birth-parents,

It's been 3 years since we started this crazy journey of being parents, and crazy it has been.

The words "THANK YOU" doesn't seem to express the depth of our gratitude to you. You have given us the most amazing gift.

We never imagined how much love we had to offer. As a mom, I am often brought to tears when I look at these 4 precious children, every time they succeed at something, graduate from one grade to the next or learn something new.

As they get older and ask questions, we will answer they as honestly as possible. They will always know that even though you were not in a place to raise them, that you have and always will love them.

We cannot promise that their lives will not be filled with hurt or pain, as that is how our world works. I can promise that whatever obstacles they are trying to cross, we will always be here for them, to support them in whatever they choose to do or be. We will love them unconditionally.

We want you to know that you will always hold a special place in our hearts.
