Waiting Families

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

My philosophy on parenting is...

"Children should be explorers, inquisitive and experiencing things unknown to them. Parents should be the guides, familiar with what the explorers are seeing, knowing where danger lurks and where the explorers are safe to discover what interests them." - Alex

We are the best choice because…

"We've wanting for so long to become parents, that we have a lot of love to give, we're caring and we're desiring to be a family with kids " - Lorena Jiménez

We are the best choice because…

"I am an adoptee! We will be able to better guide, support, and help your child navigate the complex feelings and hard questions that come with adoption because I've already had them. We will love you and your child uncondtionally, as will our families." - Alyssa

My favorite place in the World is...

"Philadelphia. Whenever I’m coming back from being out of town and first see the city skyline, I feel an immediate sense of being home. If I had to pick somewhere I don’t live, I’d say Galway, Ireland, specifically around Christmas. Everyone is so cheerful and welcoming - Sam and I talk about going back all the time!" - Bob
