A Letter from Marty & Caroline
Hello from our happy little farm! We’re a kind, loving couple and we like traveling, working, and cooking together! We’ve been best friends for 8 years and are so excited to be on this path to adoption. It would be an honor and answer to prayer to include your child in our life, as first-time parents. If you are willing, we would love to stay in touch with you, at your comfort level.

Our Home in New Mexico
We live in central New Mexico on a little farm just a couple miles from town, close to Marty’s sisters. We like that New Mexico offers a great variety of things to do outdoors, like snowboarding, hiking, White Sands National Park, and more! Our ranch-style home has 6 bedrooms and a large yard. We have a room planned for the nursery and we’re excited to decorate it after we adopt.
Our Family
We both have large families and get together often. We also have a great group of friends and we do weekend game nights together. Two of Marty’s sisters and one of his brothers lives close to us and we see them often. The rest of Marty’s family is spread out across the country and it’s fun when we get chances to see them. We enjoy traveling to see Caroline’s family too.
In our family there are 88 nieces and nephews, so there will be plenty of cousins for our child to play with! Several of Marty’s cousins have even adopted children, so adoption is already a part of our extended family. Everyone is excited to welcome the child we adopt!
When our family gets together we love:
• All the adults & children playing games together
• Volleyball or kickball
• Big Christmas gift exchange
Our Promise
We promise to truly love your child, unconditionally, and be interested in and a part of your child’s dreams and goals. We will provide a stable, Christian home, with fun, traditional values, and loving communication. As parents we will value education and will model how to be kind and loving to others.
From the beginning, we plan to tell our child their story and how we came together because of adoption. We like the idea of open adoption, if you’re comfortable, and would be open to sharing photos, letters, and visits with you. You will always hold a special place in our hearts.
Thank you for considering us as adoptive parents for your child. We’d love to talk with you! Just call or text Lifetime at 1.800.923.6784.
With loving hearts, Marty & Caroline

| More About Our Family | ||
| Pets & Farm Animals | We have 3 dogs, a few chickens, and lots of goats! Our two Beagle dogs, Zac and Zoey, love to take walks and go exploring with us. Riley is our Anatolian Shepherd and such a love bug (she loves hugs!). The chickens lay fresh eggs for us and we could spend hours watching the baby goats jump and play. | |
| Why we're hoping to adopt | Before we came to adoption we went through infertility and a miscarriage. We feel God has led us to adoption and it gives us so much hope and peace in our hearts. We're excited to grow our family this way! | |
| What we love most about where we live | Here we get a gorgeous view of the mountains where we enjoy great hiking, biking, camping, and skiing. We also love the food and the many days of sunshine! | |
| Things we look forward to as parents | We hope to share with a child our loving family, faith in God, and our love for nature and traveling. We will share our passion for gardening and growing quality food to eat, and we can’t wait for them to experience the joys of growing up around baby goats, romping and playing. We’re ready to make lots of fun childhood memories here on our farm! | |
