Meet our
Waiting Families

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

"Pizza, pizza, pizza! I love it and could eat it everyday - all types of pizza too: thin crust, deep dish, wood fired. There are so many topping and sauce options too and I'll give any combination a try at least once. For me, the cheesier the better!" - Jesse

What scares you?

"Not accomplishing what I want out of life. There are so many things to achieve and so many places to go. The future may be scary, but it is also exciting." - Kevin

Complete the sentence, “I can’t live without……”

"My friends and family! My community of loved ones is so important to me and fill my life with fun and connection." - Patricia

If I could change one thing about the World, it would be...

"I'm really empathetic and having a big heart (though I wouldn't trade it for anything) means feeling big feelings when you hear awful headlines. I would say the thing I would change is ending violence everywhere, and wishing safety and love for everyone." - Emily

What is the best word to describe our family?

"Welcoming." - Meaghan

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

"I used to live in rural Morocco as a Peace Corps volunteer. To this day, I have never seen the stars appear more brilliant than how they looked from my village. I think of my host-family and the friends I made in Morocco every time I look at the night sky. " - Shahida

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

"I would have to say RV because I feel like there would be less things that could kill you in an RV and I would hopefully not get motion sickness as bad. Also in an RV we could travel the world and visit all sorts of cool places as well as travel to visit family while being in the comfort of our own home!" - Kelton

My best friend would describe me as...

"kind, determined, and compassionate." - Jamie

Dogs or cats?

"CATS! They are so fluffy!!!" - Andrew
