Meet our
Waiting Families

What is the best word to describe our family?

"Loving. Caroline and I are very affectionate with one another and our pets who are currently our "babies". We always want to show the people in our home that they are loved by cooking each other's favorite meals, playing one anothers favorite music, or doing their favorite activities together." - Jacquelyn

My neighborhood is a good place to raise a family because…

"we live in the suburbs in the PNW. We have access to all kinds of parks, nature, and events, as well as living feet away from a highly rated elementary school!" - Steven

If I could choose one type of food to eat for the rest of my life, it would be:

"Pizza" - Mike

If I could have dinner with anyone—dead or alive—I would pick...

"Jesus from The Chosen. He just seems like someone I would want to be friends with." - Michael

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you look at the night sky?

"How beautiful the stars are. I love living where we do because it's known for the night lights. I just can't believe how God created all of this for us." - Duncan

Complete the sentence, “I can’t live without……”

"burritos. I lived in Europe for a couple of years and the thing I missed most was a tortilla filled with beans. So I learned to make my own! And I'm still making those burritos on a regular basis, swapping out new ingredients I want to try to incorporate the flavors of different cuisines that inspire me. I love to cook and try new types of foods, but I will always come back to my favorite, the burrito." - Monique

What is the best word to describe our family?

"Resilience " - Lorena Jiménez

If you had to live on an RV or sailboat for the rest of your life, which would it be?

"I would live in an RV for the rest of my life. I like the idea of parking one place, meeting new people, and learning about that area. Then being able to move on to the next stop on the road." - Sean Scott

Favorite season and why?

"I know as a teacher I’m supposed to say summer, but I like spring the best. I love when the days are getting longer and the nights start getting warmer. Sweatshirt weather is my favorite. Plus spring makes me anticipate the end of the school year, graduation, and the start of summer break!" - Bob
