I love to plan and throw parties! My grandpa helped me host a 50s themed party for one of my mom's birthdays.

My philosophy on parenting is...

setting standards and expectations for my child and giving loving guidance on how to achieve those...using positive discipline and helping them meet their goals by giving them the confidence they need...all the while having fun together and growing our relationship. Also, going on adventures and having experiences together that show them the beauty of God's creation and learning about and respecting different cultures.

Three years from now, I hope our child’s birth mom is…

still happy with the decision she made and is blessed by updates she's getting about our child as they grow.

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

Mexican - it's so yummy!

If you had to pick a famous person to play you in a movie, who would it be?

Jennifer Garner - she is so funny! She's my favorite.

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

Fievel Mousekewitz from An American Tail - haha - gotta sing his song, "Somewhere out there beneath the pale moon light...someone's thinking of me and loving me tonight"

-Jill

What scares you?

tall bridges - there's one in Houston that really gives me the heebie jeebies.

-Jill

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

RV - think of all the places we could see!

-Jill

I'm super competitive when it comes to...

cards and board games

-Jill

What is the best word to describe our family?

Tightknit

-Jill

Dogs or cats?

Dogs! My sweet dog, Trixie, is the best companion.

-Jill

I hope our child’s birth mother is…

content with her decision and finding fullfillment in her life.

-Jill

My best friend would describe me as...

creative and caring, quick-witted and fun, trustworthy and faithful.

-Jill

Favorite season and why?

I love summer because I love the heat, swimming, baseball, vacations, and longer daylight.

-Jill

We are the best choice because…

I have a lot of time and love to share with a child. I have a great support system and even though I am single, there are lots of wonderful male role models in my family and friends. I work from home so I will be available to my child any time they need me. I attend a church with a wonderful children's ministry. I can't wait to see what my child's interests are so that I can support them in all they do.

-Jill

My favorite Instagram account is:

any travel influencer like @annakloots or @wander.licious - I love seeing all the different places to visit around the world!

-Jill

In five years our relationship with our child’s birth mother will…

be open and trusting. I hope it is a relationship that we all value and enjoy.

-Jill

Do you consider yourself religious or spiritual?

I have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

-Jill

I would never...

skydive - I'm afraid of heights!

-Jill

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

there's lots to do. There is a park down the street where we can play. There are other kids on the block that love to play outside. There is a zoo a couple miles away. We also have lots of family and friends we can visit who live within a two-mile radius.

-Jill

My favorite place in the World is...

by the water...lake, ocean, beach...sun and sand.
