Meet our
Waiting Families

What is the best word to describe our family?

"Active! We love getting out, playing, walking and exploring new things." - Chad

Dogs or cats?

"I love both, but I have always had cats. Because they are loving, sweet, independent and I dont feel guilty like leaving a dog. But I do regularly dog sit the best and cutest Golden Doodle!" - Linsey

We are the best choice because…

"we have so much love to give and a great support system." - Sarah

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

"I have to go with an RV because for one I can get motion sickness really bad and second, I wouldn't say that I'm a big ocean fan. With an RV I can travel around to different places and be able to walk around more." - Calem

Dogs or cats?

"Dogs." - Javier

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

"A sailboat, or any boat in general. My family grew up with a boat and being "on the water" is where I feel the most at peace. During the summer, we actually lived on our boat and "sailed" from one marina to the next in the New York and New England area where we were able to see many different towns and boating communities. The sea air is freeing and calming. From a young age, my parents have instilled the importance of boating and water safety. Swimming and boating lessons were a necessity if we were to be on the water as a family. Being on the water isn't just an activity, it is an experience and to this day, brings me so much excitement. I also love boating because I know that this is an activity that Jackie also loves, as her family has generations of fisherman. Although we do not have a boat now, we hope to carry on our families boating traditions. We still enjoy water activities such as kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing, and just sitting at the beach, enjoying the sun and waves." - Caroline

Three years from now, I hope our child’s birth mom is…

"Involved in our life in some capacity. Hopefully, she will feel like a member of our family. I would love for her to be proud of her choices and living a life that makes her happy - in a perfect world, one in which we could cheer her on!" - Anjie

What is the best word to describe our family?

"Spirited" - Ian

The most special thing I own is...

"Photos of my dad, and a necklace my mom gave me that's engraved with a little note that reads: "to Emily, my light." I'm very sentimental and love things that remind me of people I love." - Emily
