We would be greatly blessed to have the opportunity to adopt one of your beautiful children. We did not choose Nepal because it is the easiest or fastest place from which to adopt; but because we feel a deep connection with the people, religions and culture of your amazing country.
We do not feel it's our "right" to be able to adopt internationally. Rather, it would be a great honor to be able to raise a child from Nepal. We promise to always respect our child's heritage, culture, and religion thoughout his or her life. We're committed to your country; we're already doing what we can to help the children of Nepal by volunteering our time to organizations that provide clothing and build schools where they're needed.
Westeners are often viewed as needing to have things happen "instantly". And while we'd love to have our child today, we're using this time to study and better understand Nepal, to build our community, prepare our home and to open our hearts for our child.
Thank you, and Namaste.
