To us, being parents means giving a child unconditional love, a safe place to land, and the confidence to grow into exactly who they are meant to be. We both understand how important it is for a child to feel seen, accepted, and supported.

Rohit grew up gay in a culture that was not always accepting, and he knows what it feels like to be isolated or misunderstood. Because of that, he deeply wants to provide a child with the love, encouragement, and emotional safety he wished he had more of growing up. Cameron also understands the importance of family relationships that grow through patience, honesty, and love. His relationship with his mother has become one of the most meaningful parts of his life, and he values the independence and confidence she helped him build.

As parents, we look forward to caring for a child through every stage of life. We want to offer love, structure, laughter, guidance, and support, while giving a child the freedom to explore the world and become a kind, confident, independent person.

Our most memorable moment together was our wedding in December 2023. We were married in our home, which made the day especially meaningful. Our house is our first home together and the first home either of us has ever owned, so we could not imagine beginning our marriage anywhere else.

With decorative curtains, flowers, and a lot of creativity, we transformed our sunroom into a beautiful ceremony space. Two of our closest friends officiated the ceremony and served as witnesses, and Cameron’s mother was there with us as well. It was intimate, personal, and full of love.

We wanted the day to feel calm and joyful, not stressful or overwhelming. Our friends and family often tell us it was one of the most peaceful and relaxed weddings they have ever attended. That meant so much to us because it reflected exactly what we wanted: a day centered on love, comfort, laughter, and the home we are building together. It was simple, beautiful, and unforgettable.

Our leisure time is usually spent making our home feel warm, creative, and full of life. Rohit loves gardening, growing vegetables, cooking Indian recipes, hiking, spending time in nature, and trying new local restaurants. He is a true foodie and loves discovering new flavors. He is also learning the violin and has a strong interest in South Korean culture, including Korean dramas and learning the language. Rohit also loves supporting local events, parades, and small businesses in our community.

Cameron loves baking, cooking, reading, gaming, running, and DIY projects around the house. He enjoys taking care of the lawn and flower beds and works with Rohit to design colorful garden spaces that attract bees and hummingbirds. Cameron also enjoys strategic video games and imaginative world-building games. He loves learning new ideas through books and articles, especially around creativity, psychology, and self-improvement. Together, we look forward to sharing many of these activities with a child, from cooking and gardening to nature walks, holiday traditions, creative projects, local events, and cozy nights at home.

Family is a big part of our lives, and we are lucky to have a strong support system around us. Cameron’s mother, brother, and uncle all live within 10 minutes of our home, so family is a regular part of our everyday life, not just something saved for holidays. When our friends and family are together, we usually gather around food. We love cooking and baking together, watching movies or shows, and spending time outdoors walking, hiking, sightseeing, or shopping.

Our family traditions often center on making a home feel warm and welcoming. We usually host large family dinners for Thanksgiving and Christmas, and we do the cooking ourselves. We also celebrate Diwali in November before Thanksgiving, which has become a meaningful part of our family rhythm. On long weekends, Cameron often makes lemon ricotta pancakes, and every holiday breakfast or brunch includes homemade cinnamon rolls. Thanksgiving would not feel complete without homemade pecan pie, especially for Rohit and Cameron’s uncle.

Our family is unique because it is diverse, loving, and reflective. As an interracial, intercultural, gay couple, we have had many meaningful conversations about family, belonging, values, and what it means to create a home where a child feels deeply loved. Both of our families are very supportive of our adoption plan. They are proud of the life we have built together and excited for us to share that love with a child.

We live in Tennessee in a small, family-friendly suburb that values community, local traditions, and spending time together. Our neighborhood is active and welcoming, with holiday parades, neighborhood gatherings, Fourth of July celebrations, and even a Santa visit at Christmas. It is the kind of place where neighbors know one another, children play outside, and families come together throughout the year. Our home is spacious, comfortable, and full of warmth. It has four bedrooms, two dining areas, a large kitchen, a central living room, a sunny sunroom, and a big backyard where we love to host family and friends. We enjoy grilling outside, sharing meals around our large outdoor table, and relaxing near the fire pit area we designed ourselves. We also have flower beds surrounding the home, and Rohit loves planning colorful seasonal flowers to make the yard feel bright and welcoming.

There are several families with children in our neighborhood, including one of our closest neighbors who has a toddler and another baby on the way. Neighborhood children often stop to look at our large front garden, and we are also known as the house that gives out full-size candy bars on Halloween. We have a small historic park within walking distance and a larger nearby park with a big playground, soft play surface, slides, swings, and imaginative play areas. Visitors often comment on how beautiful and peaceful our neighborhood feels because of all the mature trees.

Thank you for taking the time to read our profile and learn more about us. We know this letter may be only one small part of a much larger and deeply personal decision, and we do not take that lightly. We cannot pretend to know exactly what this moment feels like for you, but we want you to know that we are thinking of you with respect, compassion, and gratitude.

We are Cameron and Rohit. We met online in August 2019, began building a life together, and married in December 2023. Our relationship is one of the greatest blessings of our lives. We are different in many ways, but we are deeply united in the things that matter most: love, honesty, commitment, family, and the desire to create a home filled with warmth and joy.

One of the strongest parts of our relationship is the way we support each other. We are truly there for one another, no matter what is happening. We talk openly and honestly, even when a conversation is difficult. We listen, we work through challenges together, and we always come back to the same foundation: we are a team. That is the kind of love and stability we want a child to grow up surrounded by. We want a child to know that home is a place where they are safe, loved, heard, and accepted exactly as they are.

As an interracial, intercultural, gay couple, we have both spent time thinking deeply about belonging, identity, and what it means to be loved for your whole self. Rohit grew up in India and understands how painful it can feel to be different in a culture that does not always make room for those differences. Cameron grew up in the South and also knows what it means to navigate family, faith, identity, and acceptance. These experiences have made us more compassionate, more open-minded, and more intentional about the kind of parents we hope to be. We want to raise a child in a home where differences are honored, questions are welcomed, and love is steady. Our home is not centered on one strict way of seeing the world. Instead, we hope to teach compassion, gratitude, kindness, curiosity, and respect for others. We want a child to feel proud of who they are and where they come from. If this child has a different racial or cultural background from ours, we would make it our responsibility to help them stay connected to that part of their story in meaningful, everyday ways.

The life we imagine as parents is full of both big and small joys. We picture family dinners, holiday traditions, books before bed, walks through the neighborhood, gardening, cooking together, trips to the park, movie nights, laughter in the kitchen, and quiet moments of comfort when life feels hard. We will value education, creativity, emotional honesty, and independence. We will encourage a child to explore, ask questions, make mistakes, try again, and become their own person. We also want you to know that adoption would never be a secret in our home. We would speak about your child’s story with honesty, tenderness, and respect from the very beginning. We would want this child to know that their story began with love and that the decisions made for them were made with courage, care, and hope for their future. We would always speak of you with respect.

We would be honored to send letters and pictures so you can see how your child is growing and being loved. We are also open to emails and occasional phone calls, if that is something you would want and if it feels healthy and right for everyone involved. More than anything, we want to approach this relationship with openness, care, and the best interests of the child at the center. Thank you again for considering us. We would be deeply honored to love, raise, protect, and guide this child. We know we would be lucky to become parents, and we believe this child would be deeply loved, not only by us, but in the life we are ready to build together.

With love,

Rohit & Cam
