A Letter from Mike & Brittany
Hello from Michigan! As we share a part of our life with you, we hope that you will be able to feel the love and support that we are eager and excited to provide your baby with. We were blessed with our two boys through adoption. We are so excited to adopt again and to share our love for adventure and travel. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about us!
About Us
We are a fun-loving and active Christian couple who have been married since 2013. After experiencing infertility, we have been blessed with our two boys through adoption, and love being parents! Whether it is paddle boarding, ice skating, or biking to get ice cream, we are a family that loves being in the outdoors. We enjoy sports, coffee shops, and playing board games!
We love to travel and do so often! We are grateful for Mike’s job as a commercial airline pilot which provides our family with an unlimited amount of free flights. We enjoy visiting new places and experiencing new cultures. We love the fun and excitement that traveling provides as well as the endless opportunities for our children to learn and grow. We are blessed that we are able to make so many memories as a family and look forward to sharing these adventures with another child.
My Husband Mike
Mike is a kind and loyal man with an incredible work ethic. I am constantly amazed at his willingness to put others first and lend a helping hand. He can always make others laugh through his goofy sense of humor and is a kid at heart. Mike is a sports fanatic and loves golf, hockey, and the Texas Longhorns. He is our grill master and enjoys having barbecues. Whether it is playing ball, building forts, or making animal shaped pancakes, Mike is a very devoted father who will do anything to make our boys happy. He is looking forward to taking another little one out for breakfast on Friday mornings.
My Wife Brittany
Brittany is a very outgoing and caring person who loves Jesus with all her heart. She always puts others and her family first. She is very personable and I love how she seeks out the best in everyone. Brittany is a Physical Therapist by trade but is living her dream by being a stay at home mom. She fills our days with fun adventures and is always seeking out opportunities to teach our boys something new. She loves Dolly Parton, animals, mountain biking, and using her creative abilities in the woodshop. Our boys love her living room dance parties and when she does fun projects with them. She is excited to share her love of family and adventure with another child.
Our Boys
We have been blessed to adopt both our boys, and it has been a joy to watch them grow and learn new things each day. Tyus was born in 2015 and is a social butterfly with a kind heart. He loves legos and playing outside. Decklan was born in 2018 and is such a happy little boy. He loves puppies, airplanes, and tractor rides. Both Tyus and Decklan are biracial so sharing and embracing their heritage is important to us, and we promise to do the same for any child who joins our family!
Our Family
When it comes to family we are blessed in abundance. We were both blessed to have been raised in Christian homes and continue to be very close to our immediate and extended families. Brittany has one older brother. He and his wife have two boys who we see frequently for movie nights and sleepovers.
Mike’s parents live in Texas along with two of his sisters and his brother. He also has a sister who lives in Idaho with her husband. We enjoy visiting them multiple times a year.
Our families make sure no achievement or milestone goes uncelebrated and are very active in our children’s lives. Everyone is excited for another child to love!
Our Home in Michigan
Our five bedroom home is located in the country where we get to experience all four seasons to their fullest. We live within walking distance of multiple family members including Brittany’s dad, brother, sister-in-law, nephews, and aunt and uncle. All family members live separately on an 80-acre lot that includes an indoor basketball court, ice rink, and plenty of room to run and play. We love that our children are surrounded by so much love and support.
We enjoy sharing a small hobby farm with our family which includes two horses, a mini pony, chickens, and a donkey. Our boys love caring for and interacting with the animals.
Our rural community has a great school system and a growing downtown. There are many parks and beautiful beaches; our favorite is just one mile from our home. Our community is a very fun and safe place to live.
Our Promise to You
We promise to provide your child with a God-centered home filled with unconditional love, support, and laughter. We will do all that we can to help them develop their unique gifts and talents and will always encourage them to purse their passions. Your child will be raised in a financially stable home where a quality education is valued and time for fun is made. Through open and honest communication, your child will always know their adoption story. We welcome the opportunity to stay in contact with you in ways that you are comfortable with.
