Adoption Birthmother Testimonials
Elizabeth |
"I just placed my beautiful newborn daughter into the arms of her new family. A beautiful, loving family who I found through the office of Attorney Kerry Moore. My girlfriend had placed her baby for adoption through Mrs. Moore's office the previous year and had referred me to her. I am so grateful to Mrs. Moore's office for helping me find this perfect family to love, cherish and raise my daughter. I knew during my pregnancy that I could not provide the home to my baby that she deserved and I wanted so much more for her than I could give her. Her beautiful, loving new family has already sent me pictures of her in her new home. I know she is where she belongs and I can go on and work on my plans for my future knowing she is loved and will have the life I want her to have.
If you are pregnant and thinking about what you should do, I sincerely think that you should consider adoption. It is a wonderful life plan for everyone concerned, especially the child." |

"At the age of 26 I found myself with an unplanned pregnancy. The father of the baby was out of my life. I knew abortion was not right. I felt that if I was pregnant, it was my responsibility to care for this child. I knew, however, that this child was entitled to far more than I was able to provide. I was emotional about the decision, but whenever I spoke with the adopting family, I was assured in my heart that my child had the future I wanted her to have. I love the family who adopted my daughter. They are so full of love for me and my daughter. They have a little boy four years old, who immediately claimed the baby for his own. I never thought I would be in a situation to have to make this choice, but when I did, I found out that it was a loving, courageous, unselfish decision, and I am proud of myself. And I am filled with love and peace when I think of my daughter with her new family." |

"When I found out I was pregnant I didn't know what to do. I'm not ready to be a mother but I knew abortion wasn't an option for me. My step-dad found Kerry Moore online. I looked at the web site and really liked what I saw. I gave them a call and spoke with Lisa Simpson who answered all of my questions and really made me feel comfortable. From then on out I had nothing but the best of experiences. I am so happy with the family they helped me pick and I don't regret my decision for a second. Thank you Kerry, Lisa, Kendis, Cindy and the entire gang at Kerry Moore's office, I couldn't have done any of this without all of your encouragement and support. I will never forget any of you." |

[The following is an excerpt from Rachel's letter to the adopting family]
"This has been the hardest thing I have ever done. I never imagined myself ever being able to consider adoption. Then I tried to imagine your disappointments in not being able to have a biological child of your own and I realized that I am not being punished for becoming pregnant, but I am being given the opportunity to bless you with the greatest gift possible: a child to love.
During my pregnancy, I got to know you and in my heart I knew I had chosen the best possible parents for my child. I know that my son now has two loving, supportive parents who will give him what I cannot. I am proud to know that you are my son's parents." |

"I was 31 years old and ending a three year relationship with my boyfriend when I discovered I was pregnant. I always wanted to be a mom and looked forward to becoming pregnant; however, these were not the circumstances I anticipated. I loved my baby boy from the moment I knew I was pregnant. I loved him with all of my heart. I loved him so much, but I knew I could not give him the life he deserved: a mother and father who were married and loved each other and a stable environment. I talked it over with my family and decided that placing him for adoption was the greatest act of love I could show him. He is with Brad and Suzanne, the family I chose for him. They are loving him and giving him the life I want for him. I know baby Ryan will always feel love from everyone who has touched his life. He is my most precious joy and will always be in my heart." |

"I was all alone and faced with an unplanned pregnancy. After considering my options, I contacted the office of Kerry Moore. I immediately felt so much better right after the first phone call. Kerry Moore's staff immediately began showing me wonderful families to choose from. They immediately helped me with some expenses for rent and food and immediately found a doctor for me. They held my hand all the way through my adoption. I chose a wonderful family for my child that I had the opportunity of meeting. I will remain in contact with them as my child grows. I am so happy to have found Kerry Moore and feel great about my decision." |

"My name is Lillian. Like you, I am pregnant. I am 31 years old with 4 small children. I know adoption is the right thing to do for everyone involved, especially my unborn child. Attorney Kerry Moore helped me right away by answering all of my questions. I feel relieved that I am planning something positive in my life and certain of my adoption plan. I know that I am giving a priceless gift to couple that cannot have a family any other way. Lisa, Attorney Moore's paralegal, stays in regular contact with me, answering my questions and working with my doctor's office. I am so happy I found their office." |

Elaine and Peter |
"How does a married couple explain to their family, friends and other children that they are placing a baby for adoption? We already had three children and felt our family was complete when I became pregnant. Peter and I seriously considered abortion - but when we looked at our beautiful, healthy children, we knew abortion just wasn't right. We then considered parenting another child. For many reasons, that didn't feel right either - especially for the three children we already had. We had seen many shows on TV about adoption, and started to look into it. As soon as we saw profiles of families wanting to adopt we started to feel that adoption was the right choice. We just had our baby recently and handed him to his new adoptive family. We were both surprised that we felt more joy for them than sadness for ourselves. Sharing our joy for this family was the way we explained our adoption decision to everyone. And they understood." |
