We met in 2000 while attending the same church and Bible College and have been married since 2002. We are complete and fulfilled, happy and still very much in love. We are missing only one thing - a child. We have a tremendous amount of love to give. We enjoy walking, camping, going to the beach and serving together in our local church. Our families are excited about the addition of a baby through adoption. We know you are in the process of making some very difficult choices. Like you, we respect the life of the unborn and we admire your unselfish love that motivates you to find what is best for your child. Thank you for considering us as a possible part of the plan for your baby's future. We invite you to read more about us by clicking on our picture. We would like to adopt a biracial baby girl."

Hello. Our desire is to be Christian parents, but we are unable to have biological children. We eagerly anticipate a biracial baby girl who we are positive would bring joy to our hearts. While we do not bear the outward signs of a child growing in the womb, the expectation of a child and love for that child has been daily growing in our hearts. Someone once said, “Giving birth is a gift of nature, but adoption is a gift of God.” We are ready to enthusiastically adopt a gracious gift from God. Our trust and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ is our greatest asset. It is only by the work of the Lord in our hearts that we have become who we are. The pictures we have included will briefly tell a few details about our family, home and the activities we enjoy.

Our Life Together

A solid friendship developed that blossomed into romance. In March 2002 we exchanged our vows. It was the most special day of our lives. We share a strong loving relationship. Neither of us could have imagined the happiness and love that we would one day feel together. As best friends, our relationship has grown steadily into what it is today. We are complete and fulfilled, happy and still very much in love. We are missing only one thing – a child. We have a tremendous amount of love to give. We are comfortable financially, share traditional family values, and can provide a wonderful environment for a child. Both of us enjoy walking, camping, going to the beach and serving together in our local church. We are excited at the prospect of sharing these activities with any child God may provide for us.

Ben Writes…

Hilary will make a great mother. She is the most nurturing woman I have ever met. What she hasn’t been able to share with a child of her own, she happily bestows upon those around her; our friends and their children share all that she has. She is a very patient person who enjoys working with children in our Church’s Christian school and Sunday school, directing children’s church and the children’s choir. She has taught junior high and high school typing and computers, which has provided her many opportunities to work with teens as well. She loves to sing and enjoys participating in our church choir and at several other churches around the country. She also enjoys cooking for our family and friends. Although Hilary’s family lives several hours away, they are close and she sees them whenever possible. Frequent phone calls and emails are ways she remains close. Although she possesses several degrees and is currently working on her PhD, Hilary has devoted most of her years to working and serving in the church as the personal assistant to the Pastor and also the Administrator of our church’s Bible College ministry. These ministries have allowed us to meet people from all over the world, including the West Indies, South America and Canada.

Hilary Writes…

Ben is my support system. I can talk to him about anything. We are not just husband and wife but we are also the best of friends. He is an intelligent, patient and compassionate man. He takes everything in stride and has an amazing sense of humor that helps us get through tough times. His good nature and calm demeanor make him a pleasure to be around. When I met Ben I knew he would make a good father. He adores children. Our nephews and niece excitedly await playing with him on each of our visits. They all love their “Uncle Ben.” Whether reading to his little sister or taking his younger brother fishing, Ben’s face is always aglow as he teaches them new things. Ben is the great outdoorsman. He loves fishing, golfing and hunting and enjoys biking with his dad. He also plays the guitar and is a musician in our local church. I love Ben’s passion for his family, for his work and for everything he does. He is a godly leader and provider in our home and looks forward to sharing his life with our children.”

Our Home

Our beautiful three-bedroom brick home is located in a quiet, well-established neighborhood. It is less than a half mile to a beautiful park. There is also a good amount of play space in the yard. We currently enjoy evening walks to the park. Our neighbors include families with young children and retired couples who enjoy being grandparents. Our extended family has shown great support and excitement about our decision to adopt a child.

Thank you again for your decision to work with the Children's Home Society and the gift of life that you have given to your child. I hope we have given you a glimpse into our lives and how we would provide your child a lifetime of unconditional love and laughter. Cousins, aunts and uncles are eagerly awaiting the arrival of a new baby and the grandparents and great grandparents are especially excited to have a new grandchild to spoil. We are so looking forward to the day when we can hold our new child for the first time and welcome her into our lives. We will forever be grateful to you for making our dream come true.

All our love and prayers.

Ben & Hilary
