Meet Matt & Philip M.
Dear Birthparents,
Our names are Matt and Philip. We’ve been happily married since 2019, and together as a couple since 2012. We live in a single-family home in Dublin, Ohio just west of Columbus.
We’ve partnered with Adoption Link to help us find loving families such as yours that are exploring adoption plans for your child.
We could not begin to comprehend the weight placed on you during this important time. Our hope that you’ll find a safe and loving family in us as you get to know more about who we are. Beginning a family of our own has been a goal of ours for so long.
Rest assured we specifically chose Adoption Link because they endorse open adoption. Our family can’t wait to share updates with you (if you so choose) as they grow up!
Our wedding day
Family
We both lived near our extended families growing up. We gathered each week, typically on Sundays after church. We have fond memories of delicious dinners, celebrating birthdays and all sorts of holiday festivities. This environment taught us so much about love, patience and being there for others in good times and challenging times.
We are life-long Ohioans who grew up in the Akron, Ohio, area. We met each other while working together at Best Buy. We moved to Columbus, Ohio in 2019 for Philip’s job. Philip’s family still resides in the Akron area, while Matt’s family has since moved to the Dayton area. We have two adorable adult cats, Leia and Rey who are eager to see our family grow!
