Adoption is something we have always viewed as a beautiful and selfless act of love.

Rebekah's mother placed a child for adoption when she was 18, and that experience had a lasting impact on Rebekah's understanding of what a birth mother may go through. Growing up, Rebekah witnessed the emotions, the strength, and the lifelong love her mother carried for the child she placed. Because of that, adoption was always talked about with openness, respect, and compassion in her home. It is not just an idea to us. It is personal and deeply meaningful. We carry that same perspective with us as we walk through this journey.

We have a tremendous amount of respect for birth mothers and the love behind their decisions. We will always speak about adoption with honesty, grace, and pride, and we are committed to making sure this child knows their story is one rooted in love from the very beginning.

Our lifestyle is peaceful, settled, and full of simple joys.

During the week, Tyler works and returns home in the afternoon. We spend time taking care of the house, being outdoors with our dogs, and ending the day with dinner and a movie.

On the weekends, we mix things up. Sometimes we stay in and enjoy the quiet, and other times we head out for a local event, sporting event, or something fun just a short drive away. Rebekah enjoys doing pilates and Tyler plays pickleball regularly.

One of our favorite shared hobbies is visiting new coffee and dessert shops and rating them together.

We are excited to adapt our lifestyle as we grow our family, making room for bedtime stories, school activities, and playtime in the yard. More than anything, we want to give a child a happy, balanced life filled with love, laughter, and time spent together.

Faith is a big part of our life and shapes how we treat others, how we handle challenges, and how we love. We are active in our local church community, which has become like an extended family to us. For us, being Christians is not about rules. It is about living with kindness, grace, and purpose. We hope to raise a child in a home where faith is a foundation of love and not pressure. Our greatest hope is that this child develops their own relationship with Jesus and sees faith modeled in the way we live each day. We also believe that growing up in a faith-based home helps build strong character such as kindness, empathy, honesty, and a deep respect for others. Those are the values we hope to pass on, both through our words and through the way we live our lives.

We live in Texas in a cozy, cabin-style home with two bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms. Our favorite space is the large living room where we gather to relax, play games, and spend time together. What makes our home truly special is the vast amount of land surrounding it, over 70 acres. This means there is plenty of room to run, play, and explore outside, giving a child a wonderful opportunity to grow up close to nature and enjoy the wide-open spaces.

Our community is welcoming and extremely family friendly. We live out in the country, which means it is peaceful and quiet, but there are plenty of parks and outdoor activities just 15 minutes away. Tyler's parents live just minutes from us and have a pool we often use during the summer months, making for fun, easy family gatherings.

We love the sense of community in our area, especially through our local church, which hosts many special events and has a large gym where we enjoy playing pickleball and volleyball. It's a friendly spot where people hang out and have a good time, especially families. We also look forward to attending the county fair and visiting farmers markets together. These are great ways to connect with friends and enjoy time outside. Our community truly offers a warm, supportive environment for a child to grow and thrive.

Our families are loving, supportive, and a huge part of our lives. Tyler's family lives very close, just a few miles away, so we get to see them often for dinners, game nights, or simply stopping by to say hi. Tyler's family owns an exotic animal park, so we are all big animal lovers!

Rebekah's family lives a few hours away, but we make time to visit regularly and stay connected. Whether it's in person or over the phone, both sides are very involved and incredibly important to us.

Everyone is so excited about our decision to adopt. Our parents are especially thrilled and can't wait to add another grandbaby to the family! They've already started dreaming of holidays, Disney World visits, and all the little moments to come.

One thing we love is how playful and close both of our families are. There's always laughter, joking around, and a whole lot of love. Tyler's family takes a big vacation together each year. It's something we all look forward to and treasure, whether it's at the beach, in the mountains, or exploring somewhere new. Rebekah's family has a tradition of a big Christmas dinner and game night every year, filled with food, laughter, and fun. Her mom also makes a special Christmas morning bread that we look forward to all year long.

Both of our families show up for each other on birthdays, milestones, tough days, and in all the moments in between. We feel so lucky to raise a child surrounded by this kind of love, support, and joy.

Thank you for taking the time to learn about us. We know you are in the middle of a decision that is both deeply personal and incredibly courageous. We cannot pretend to understand everything you may be feeling, but we want you to know from the very beginning that we see you with deep respect and compassion. Your strength and love in considering adoption are powerful, and we honor that.

We are Tyler and Rebekah, a married couple living in Texas. We have been together for over a year and a half. From the start, our relationship has been built on faith, friendship, laughter, and love. We truly enjoy being together whether we are doing house projects, traveling, walking our dogs, or simply enjoying our time outside. We are each other's best friend and greatest support, and we cannot wait to grow our family through adoption.

Our home is a cozy, cabin-style house in the countryside. It is surrounded by more than 70 acres of open space to run, play, and explore. Tyler's entire family lives close by and Rebekah's family is just a few hours away. We are blessed with a loving, supportive group of people who are all incredibly excited to welcome a child into our lives. Family is at the heart of everything we do, and we already know this child will be surrounded by love, joy, and encouragement.

Adoption has always been close to our hearts. Rebekah's mom placed a baby for adoption when she was just 18 years old. That experience made adoption a part of their family's story from the beginning. It was always spoken about with love, honesty, and respect. Growing up, Rebekah saw the impact that decision had on her mother and developed a deep respect for birth mothers and the love behind adoption. That respect has shaped both of us as we have walked toward this calling.

We believe that being parents means showing up with love, presence, patience, and grace. We want to raise a child in a home where they are celebrated for exactly who they are, where their story is honored, and where they feel safe, supported, and deeply loved. Tyler is looking forward to teaching a child how to play sports, explore nature, and try new things with confidence. Rebekah is excited to share her love of baking, planting flowers, and creating fun memories together. Most of all, we are looking forward to the little everyday moments that make life so beautiful.

If you choose us, we promise to honor your story and the love you have for your child. We will raise them to know how deeply they are loved, not just by us, but by you. We are committed to sending letters and pictures each year as your child grows. We are also open to meeting you in person before the baby is born, if that's something you would like. Our plan includes one visit with you before your child turns five. While we are not pursuing an ongoing open adoption, rather semi-open, we are open to exchanging contact information so that any personal communication can happen directly between you and us. Above all, we want to support a connection that feels comfortable for you and centered on your child's well-being.

Thank you again for considering us. We do not take this lightly, and we are grateful for the opportunity to share our hearts with you. No matter what decision you make, we are praying for peace and clarity as you navigate this time. We hope you feel surrounded by support and love every step of the way.

With love, care, and respect,

Tyler & Rebekah
