We are the best choice because…
We’ll be active parents and have the resources to provide for and educate a child who may have a range of needs. We’re energetic, loving, stable, and have lots of family & friends to love this child.
Kiley
My favorite place in the World is...
Hawaii, but specifically Kauai. I love sea turtles (honu), getting shave ice, rainbows, and watching surfers. We have friends there and would love to share it with our child one day.
Kiley
Complete the sentence, “I can’t live without……”
1. Golf - I play as often as I can and enjoy the challenge because you can always improve your game. 2. Travel - I will go almost anywhere. I love adventure. (and Kiley, of course).
Mike
My neighborhood is a good place to raise a family because…
there's a lot for kids to do. Ride bikes, skateboard, it's safe to walk around all over town. There are always kids riding bikes, hanging out at the ice cream shop, the library, and all the parks.
Mike
My philosophy on parenting is...
every kid is different and each deserves to be respected for who she or he is. I'm not looking for a "mini me," in looks or personality. I'll celebrate my child's individuality.
Kiley
My neighborhood is a good place to raise a family because…
It’s a cute, safe, quiet little town. You see kids everywhere you go! Cute shops, a great school, and we’re close to major cities so we can drive or take the train in whenever we want.
Kiley
If I could change one thing about the World, it would be...
to make people care more for one another and realize that small actions have huge impact.
Kiley
My best friend would describe me as......
"A straight shooter." She's already said this. Direct and straightforward. People always know where they stand with me and I believe if you respect people you're honest with them.
Kiley
If you could choose one type of food to eat for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Only one? Variety is the spice of life. Of course I'm partial to my mom's cooking, traditional Chinese food, but I can never pass up fried chicken when I see it on a menu!
Mike
We are the best choice because…
We’re fun and always laughing and having adventures together! We love to cook, travel, stay active, and spend time together. Our home is perfect for a child with lots of room to grow into.
Mike
Three years from now, I hope our birth mom is…..
confident in the choice she made and knows her child is loved beyond measure. We want you to have the privacy or connection you want and need to be confident in your decision.
Mike
Three years from now, I hope our birth mom is…..
Loved, safe, and feels confident in her decision. We want for our child’s birth parents to achieve their goals and to know that if they’re seeking contact with us and their child, we’re here.
Kiley
Favorite season and why?
Summer. I love the heat, the sun, and long days. We spend a lot of time outdoors in the summer and there’s so much to do: the beach, golf, hiking, outdoor concerts, BBQs with friends & fam, the pool.
Kiley
Dogs or cats?
Both, but our cat Charlie loves me the most. I only had fish and turtles growing up, but with Kiley we're always sure to have something furry running around the house.
Mike
Dogs or cats?
Both. We have a retired racing greyhound, Sarge, who LOVES kids. 3 cats: Charlie (our princess) who is 15, and Teddy and Goblin who are crazy 2 yr old brothers. When I was a kid we even had goats :)
Kiley
Do you have kids? How would they feel about a sibling?
We don't have kids, but we're open to multiples and hope to have more than one, one day.
Mike
If I could have dinner with anyone -- dead or alive -- I would pick...
My grandma. She passed away in July, and I miss spending time with her. When I was a small child I spent almost every weekend at her house. Grandmas are so important!
Kiley
Favorite season and why?
Summer! I love to golf as often as possible and longer days let me do that. I also enjoy grilling on our patio and having family dinners outside.
Mike
Do you consider yourself religious or spiritual?
I believe in a higher power and consider myself agnostic. While many of my family members are Taoist or Buddhist, I don’t identify with any particular religion.
Mike
My favorite place in the World is...
Hawaii. The weather is always perfect, the culture is laid back, the islands are beautiful, and it’s hard to feel stressed out. It's the perfect place for people who love to be outside.
Mike
Do you consider yourself religious or spiritual?
I was raised Christian (my grandpa was a preacher). I believe in Jesus & prayer and was raised in the church but don't belong to one. We have friends of all religions and believe in love & acceptance.
Kiley
I hope you are...
getting the support you need to make this decision and would allow us to help you find the resources you need. We understand life is difficult and don't ever want you to feel judged.
Mike
Do you have kids? How would they feel about a sibling?
No, but we are hoping our first won’t be the last, so they won’t grow up an only child. Everyone knows the first baby gets the most attention though!
Kiley
If you could choose one type of food to eat for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Pizza. I can never get enough pizza. I'm a pescatarian, a carb fiend, and eat a lot of different types of food, but pizza has my heart, closely followed by mac & cheese. I basically eat the kids menu.
Kiley
My best friend would describe me as......
Laid back and easy going. I love to laugh and make other people laugh. I'm always on the go and like to deal with things as they happen. For example, I change lightbulbs as soon as they burn out.
