Meet our
Waiting Families

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

"RV. We already have one so I know how great they are! I love that you can drive anywhere! The beach, the desert, the mountains, the lake, anywhere! Your options are limited on a sailboat. My dogs would go nuts cooped up on a boat too. Also- I sunburn easily so I'd be a lobster living on a sailboat." - Becca

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

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