Reese, American Intended Parent in Kansas City, Missouri, USA

Explain your reasons for wanting a surrogate/donor:

Being a homosexual couple we are not afforded the opportunity to have children the traditional way.Adoption is a great way to give a home to a child in need, but we also would love our own child so that our legacy will live on.

How would you best describe yourself(s):

Young professional couple who are looking to establish a family of our own.It has been both of our dreams to have a family, which includes having a child of our own.Being a homosexual couple is difficult and I get that because of some peoples beliefs they think that it is unnatural.My answer to those people is that you can't determine who you love more than you can determine what your favorite food is.Bobby and I have been very fortunate to find each other and we truly honestly and deeply care for one another.We are currently investigating the surrogacy route seeing if it is a viable option for us.We are also looking into adoption, but at some level as selfish as it sounds we would like our own genetic children.If surrogacy is not in the cards for us we are also willing to adopt.

Use this space to communicate a letter to potential Surrogates/Donors:

We are still quite young and very much have the ability to be active in the child's life.We are looking for a traditional surrogacy where one of us would provide our half of the genetic material and the other half provided by the surrogate.We want to be *** transparent with our kid letting them know who their mother is and if she wants to remain in contact we are perfectly fine with that as well.We just want you to know that we will do our best to ensure that we can help to the best of our ability.We may not be able to compensate a lot, but our commitment to ensuring your health and the babies is our top priority.
