Feel free to share it with friends and help us pass on the word that two good guys want to be parents!

Preparation is done

It took a little longer than we expected, but we're done with all the paperwork and preparation!

Our forms, background checks, home study, etc. are all approved and finished. Our birthparent letter (a.k.a. 'our brochure') was all finalized and approved after making some changes to the photos (we had too many posed pictures and not enough 'action shots'). We took it to Staples office center, made 150 copies on nice heavy card stock, taped 4x6 photos to the front of them all, signed them all, and sent them back to our adoption agency for distribution.

Now we can also get the word out to everyone we know. Our website has pretty much the same content as our birthparent letter. Our website is www.calvinandshannon.com. And if you click HERE you can download a PDF copy of our birthparent letter.
