"We've certainly come a long way together! You've been fair and kind and supportive, every step of the way. I can't think of a better partner. Thank you for sticking with us, for introducing us to Yynette and certainly for providing us the means to have a family of our own...How do I begin to thank you! Cristie, you stood by us all this time, patiently enduring our stops and starts and always coming through with a willingness to help us make this happen. THANK YOU. Six years after our first meeting, me 10 days post-op from a hysterectomy, a couple is now a family and it sure feels good!"

"Cristie, these are just a few of the many wonderful ways that we all feel about you, your staff, and what you have done for our lives. You have helped to give us hope and see our dreams come true. Many times people feel the only important thing about having a baby is the result, but you and your staff make the entire process a much easier road to travel. Most of us have been trying to make a baby for many years and to finally meet and have the pleasure to work with you, and your wonderful surrogates, has been a special part of this incredible miracle of surrogacy."
-Written by a group of Israeli women who all had children through SPS
"Our cup runneth over, our lives are so wonderful with our son. I want to share with you one of the loveliest thoughts that was sent to us by a rabbi in New York. He wrote, 'Each of us should be lamplighters, bringing light whenever we can, not just to our Hanuka menorah, but to individuals and the world. Lamplighter bring light to those who have none, light to those in darkness, as well as beauty and happiness to the world.' You should all feel very blessed as the incredible lamplighters you are to us and to so many other lucky people. God Bless You."

"We just wanted to tell you how much we appreciate all that you have done for us throughout this entire process. From the moment we met you we felt that we were in good hands . . . and you certainly exceeded all of our expectations. Of course, we couldn't have asked for a better surrogate. She has been awesome and she has done everything we have asked. We feel so lucky that we were able to be paired with such a wonderful person. I also want to tell you how much we enjoyed working with Lorraine. She has such a fantastic attitude, and is truly one of the kindest, most giving people that we have ever met. We called Lorraine at all hours of the day, and night, and weekends to ask about a variety of issues, and she was always cheerful and eager to help. She always followed through promptly on everything we asked her to do. Lorraine frequently tells us how lucky she is to be a case manager with SPS, and this attitude clearly shows in her work. She is an absolute delight, and as with you and our surrogate we feel extremely lucky to have all of you on our team. Thank you so much for all your support."

To have our dream finally come true is the most amazing blessing, and due in large part to you and all the marvelous staff at SPS. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
