Hello!

We want to take the opportunity to let you know that by choosing adoption it shows bravery and courage. We may not be able to fully relate to the situation you are faced with but we can understand and appreciate choosing love for your child. Additionally, we know how challenging it must be to find a family that best meets the vision you have for your child. It must be hard to scroll through profiles while asking yourself “Will my child be happy and loved by them?” As a family, all we can do is provide details of who we are, paint a portrait of our lives, and hope that we check all the boxes of what you picture as the perfect home. We would make great parents and love your child as much as you would. Your child would grow up in a safe and stable home. Their life will be filled with love, support, and lots of opportunities to explore their admirations and dreams. We are a family that loves to travel, learn new things, and prioritize our mental health. We have holiday traditions that we would love to share with your child. Every Christmas season we watch holiday movies, make hot cocoa, and go see Christmas lights all over town. We make an effort to maintain solid relationships with our families. Since the day our niece and nephew were born we have made it a priority to show up in their lives. We feel your child would fit right into our family because of how open and loving our family is. We can assure you that you will be spoken about with respect and love. Thank you for taking the time to view our family but more importantly thank you for your strength.

Traveling is something we try to do at least once a month. We were in Sedona here.  We travel here at least once a year.

any pasta dish

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

Michelle Rodriguez because she plays roles portraying women who are strong, selfless, and determined.

-Karla

When we argue, what’s it about?

We argue about our different views and ways of thinking on certain topics. Our solution is to listen to one another, understand ones view, and compromise.

We are the best choice because…

we have so much love to give and a great support system.

-Sarah

I hope our child’s birth mother is…

Aware that she has a story, that this decision isn't looked at by the adoptive parents as an easy decision. That she is courageous, caring, and a wonderful person for choosing this path for their story.

-Karla

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

Racism

-Karla

Dogs or cats?

Dogs for sure. I grew up with dogs being part of the family. They are just so loving and loyal. We don't deserve them.

-Sarah

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

there are lots of parks within walking distance and we have a great elementary school near us.

-Sarah

What is the best word to describe our family?

Supportive. We are always cheering each other on through the good times and bad. We know we can always count on each other.

-Sarah

The most special thing I own is...

my spouses heart

-Karla

So much love to give.

So much love to give.
