A friend of mine told me about Hope families. I have other children and although I would like to have another child I just couldn't take care of another child. I just want my baby to have a good family with a mother and father. So many people said to me, "why or how can you give up your baby?" but I just am 150% sure. I wasn't able to do things when I was a child but I know that the adoptive family will be able to do those things for my baby. I will always get pictures and updates so I will know the baby is doing well. I was actually excited to talk to the adopted family I chose although I was nervous at first, worried about what they would think, but once I talked to them they were very nice. That family does all sorts of things that I never was able to do and after I talked to them I was confident that my baby was going to be in a good family and be able to do everything that I never did. There have been so many things I want to do in my life and they have helped me in so many ways.

Ken and Lynn treated me as family and took me in and we have become true friends to this day. They are the most beautiful people I have ever met in my whole life. They have taught me a lot and when I say a lot I mean a lot. They love God and they love people and it doesn’t matter who you are, they will take you in and they do not judge you. There is so much for me to say but it would take a whole year. They have the most beautiful heart and soul. If I have a choice to follow somebody’s footsteps I would choose Dr. Brown and Lynn. May God be with them forever. I love them so much.

I met Dr. Ken and Lynn Brown when I was pregnant over 6 years ago and did not know what to do. Ken and Lynn talked with me and showed me love and understanding. They told me about Hope for Families Adoption Agency. They know a lot of good people who want to be parents but can’t get pregnant so they want to adopt a baby. They showed me pictures so I could choose the right family to adopt my baby. I was able to talk on the phone with the adoptive family and later we all got to know each other over lunch. I liked the adoptive family that I chose and trusted them to take care of my child. It was not easy to give my baby to them, but I knew that I was not able to do provide for her needs, so I knew it was the right thing to do. God let me bring a child into the world to make this family happy. They send me pictures of my child and I know they are taking good care of her. I made the right choice even though it was very difficult because I love my child.
