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

"How big the world and universe is. The starry night is so beautiful, it is fun to look for shooting stars and looking at all the constellations." - Linsey

What is the best word to describe our family?

"Supportive. We are always cheering each other on through the good times and bad. We know we can always count on each other." - Sarah

Favorite season and why?

"I can't say that I have a favorite. I love summer and all of its adventures, but I don't necessarily love the heat. I love fall and all the colors, but I don't necessarily love cleaning up the leaves. And I love all of the holidays in winter, but I hate driving in the snow. I guess I like the change that each season brings." - Cassidy

Dogs or cats?

"Dogs." - Andy

We are the best choice because…

"We are the best because we offer love and stability in a child's life. The Child's safety will always be the most important factor to our child rearing. I not only want to be a friend to our child, but also, someone that they look up to. I have always dreamed of being a mother and creating wonderful experiences for my child and having a close and connected relationship with them, while also encouraging them to be their own individual person. Jackie and I both value the importance of education, creativity, travel and experiences to help shape the future of our child." - Caroline

If you had to pick a famous person to play you in a movie, who would it be?

"I would want Tina Fey to play me in a movie. She's delightful and quirky, but can also be serious, when needed. Her work has made me laugh so hard that I cried. But I also appreciate her sensitive side." - Anjie

My best friend would describe me as...

"Funny, loud, energetic, respectful and kind hearted." - Ian

My philosophy on parenting is...

"Positive redirection, and making sure my parenting-style is love-centered above all. I studied child development and I know the importance of feeling safe, nurtured, and having your needs met (physical and emotional).This is the grounwork and foundation for growing into a healthy adult." - Emily
