Meet our
Waiting Families

Favorite season and why?

"Caroline and I both love the fall. The way the air smells in the evening, sitting around a fire pit with friends, days at the local apple orchard or pumpkin patch. We love the colors of fall and the excitment felt of the upcoming holiday season where we decorate and celebrate and spend time with loved ones. We also love fall because our favorite "holiday" takes place... HALLOWEEN! Every year for Halloween, we host a big party for our friends and their families. Children of all ages attend and everyone must wear a costume! There are activities for children such as scavenger hunts, pumpkin decorating, and a pinata! Our friends tell us every year how their children look forward to this party. Caroline and I spend weeks planning a theme and decorating, as well as coming up with new activities for the guests. This is by far our favorite party of the year." - Jacquelyn

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

"I remember that we are not seeing the stars as they are right now, we see them as they were when they emitted the light. Outer space is so vast, yet our tiny planet holds almost all of human history as we know it. But when light from stars that started traveling years ago reaches us, we get to see stars as they were in the past." - Alex

We are the best choice because…

"we are a family with to much love to give, and our childrends will be surrounding by love always" - Manuel Rodriguez

When we argue, what’s it about?

"A lack of communication and we work to solve these issues together, as a team." - Sean Scott

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

"Peacefulness. There is a sense of calm that comes with looking at something so vast and beautiful. I love how it reminds me to hit pause and take a moment to appreciate and take in my surroundings." - Sam
