Hello!

Hello, We cannot begin to thank you enough for taking the time to learn about us as you consider adoption, and consider us as potential parents for your child. While we can never really understand this difficult time in your life, we have nothing but the most respect for you, your selflessness, and your unconditional love for your child. We hope this letter will help you to better understand us as individuals and as a family. We have always dreamed about becoming parents and are excited to be on this journey. Family is so important to us and we have a strong support system in our family and friends, including Alyssa's birth family. Alyssa was adopted at 30 days old and we know what a beautiful experience adoption can be. Your child will be so loved by so many, as both of us have large extended families and a large group of friends. We want you to know that we will do whatever we can to make your child's dreams come true. We want you to know that we are looking forward to sharing your child's life with you. If you are open to it, we would love nothing more than to welcome you into our family. Thank you again for taking the time to read our bio. We hope that you find peace in your decision whatever it may be. We admire you, your courage, and your bold love for your child. Love, Alyssa and Sean

If you had to live on an RV or sailboat for the rest of your life, which would it be?

I think I would have to choose a sailboat because that would let me travel to a lot of different countries.

-Alyssa Scott

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you look at the night sky?

I love looking at the night sky and when I look up it always reminds of how vast and beautiful our universe is, and then I start to wonder if we are truly alone or if there is other intelligent life out there.

-Alyssa Scott

In five years our relationship with our child’s birth mother will…

Be thriving, supportive, and respectful of the wants and needs of both her and the baby.

-Alyssa Scott

Three years from now, I hope our child’s birth mom is…

happy, healthy, and achieving her goals in life.

Favorite season and why?

I absolutely love fall when the air starts to get crisp and the leaves change colors. I love to travel during the fall and experience different fall festivals and go apple and pumpkin picking. I love to bake and the flavors of fall are some of my favorite.

-Alyssa Scott

We are the best choice because…

We will love and care for this baby while maintaining an open relationship with all members of the triad.

-Sean

Favorite season and why?

Fall is my favorite season because life tends to slow down and people focus more on spending time with friends and family.

-Sean

If I could choose one type of food to eat for the rest of my life, it would be:

Pasta! There are so many different kinds, different sauce options, and toppings!

-Alyssa Scott

My neighborhood is a good place to raise a family because…

We live in a safe and diverse neighborhood with tons of families, which means there will always be friends around to play with. We are close to a playground, Sean's parents live 2 minutes away, and we have great schools!

Do you consider yourself religious or spiritual?

I consider myself spiritual. I was raised Catholic, but as I got older my views on religion and the Catholic faith changed.

-Alyssa Scott

My philosophy on parenting is...

that babies come into the world with their needs, wants, and goals mainly formed. It's the parent's job to meet the needs and wants of the baby and help them grow into the child they want to be while helping them achieve their goals along the way. I believe open, honest discussions with baby/child lead to a happy and healthy relationship.

-Sean

Do you consider yourself religious or spiritual?

I consider myself to be spiritual. I believe there is an underlying essence of life whether that be the universe or god that points us toward goodness and love.

-Sean

Complete the sentence, “I can’t live without……”

Alyssa, books, and my fur babies.

-Sean

Three years from now, I hope our child’s birth mom is…

doing well and making sure to take care of herself. Also, that she enjoys the photos and letters we will send.

-Sean

My best friend would describe me as...

Calm and consistent.

If I could have dinner with anyone—dead or alive—I would pick...

I would pick to have dinner with Marcus Aurelius. He became emperor after being adopted by the previous emperor who could not have child. There were many Roman emperors who could not bear child and would adopt an heir to the throne. But Marcus decided to make his biological son Comodus emperor which would end a time of peace for Rome.

-Sean

My favorite place in the World is...

Nijo Castle, Kyoto, Japan during the cherry blossoms.

-Sean

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you look at the night sky?

That we are looking at light that has existed for millions of years. Possibly from stars that died out long ago, but they continue to impact life far after their deaths.

-Sean

If you had to pick a famous person to play you in a movie, who would it be?

Keanu Reeves because I think he would get my quiet demenor and dry humor.

-Sean

My best friend would describe me as...

a kind, silly, bookworm.

-Alyssa Scott

What is the best word to describe our family?

Close! Sean and I grew up together as friends, so we've literally known eachother forever. But not only are we close as a couple but we are also close with our parents and our extended families.

-Alyssa Scott

My philosophy on parenting is...

That it should be child centered, based on their needs. I belive in being a kind and supportive parent that is always there for my child and to teach them how to navigate the world while being a good person.

-Alyssa Scott

If I could change one thing about the World, it would be...

People would be more accepting of others.

-Alyssa Scott

When we argue, what’s it about?

A lack of communication and we work to solve these issues together, as a team.

What scares you?

Losing the people that I love most. The world would be an empty place without them.

Where the ketchup bottle is.

If I could have dinner with anyone—dead or alive—I would pick...

-Alyssa Scott

If you had to live on an RV or sailboat for the rest of your life, which would it be?

I would live in an RV for the rest of my life. I like the idea of parking one place, meeting new people, and learning about that area. Then being able to move on to the next stop on the road.

-Sean

If I could change one thing about the World, it would be...

to increase people's capacity for empathy.

-Sean

open to engaging with our family.

-Sean

We are the best choice because…

I am an adoptee! We will be able to better guide, support, and help your child navigate the complex feelings and hard questions that come with adoption because I've already had them. We will love you and your child uncondtionally, as will our families.
