Meet our
Waiting Families

Dogs or cats?

"We love all kinds of animals. We have two small dogs, Charli & Rosie, and a cat, Riley, who have become our world. We are so happy to share our lives with them and take them along to vacation or just include them in every day activities so they feel how loved they are. When we are not with them, we are sure to provide them with the best care givers. Because we have such a deep love for animals, it is common that while vacationing, we often look local wild life or visit animal santuaries where we can see as many animals as possible." - Jacquelyn

"Pizza" - Mike

If I could choose one type of food to eat for the rest of my life, it would be:

Favorite season and why?

"Although I like winter and spring, I prefer autumn even more. Apple cider and apple butter conjure up fond memories from childhood. The morning frosts promise winter and the potential for skiing. The shortening days mean I can stop worrying about outdoor projects and retreat inside. Of course, the changing leaves provide more variety of color than at any other point in the year." - Alex

What is the best word to describe our family?

"stick together" - Manuel Rodriguez

My philosophy on parenting is...

"That it should be child centered, based on their needs. I belive in being a kind and supportive parent that is always there for my child and to teach them how to navigate the world while being a good person." - Alyssa

My neighborhood is a good place to raise a family because…

"There are a number of parks and playgrounds within a few minutes of our house that host events for kids of all ages. There’s a youth athletic league with sports fields nearby, and we even have a sprayground! Lots of the cafes and restaurants are well suited for families too!" - Bob
