Meet our
Waiting Families

We are the best choice because…

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

What is the best word to describe our family?

"Fun. We laugh a lot, no matter where we are or what we are doing -- as long as we're together. We take adventures, both locally in Washington state and traveling abroad." - Javier

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

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

"Discrimination. Ther's no reason humans shouldn't be able to coexist with other humans." - Ian

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

"Our neighborhood is a welcoming and diverse community where neighbors look out for one another. It’s a safe and friendly environment, perfect for families. We’re within walking distance of great restaurants and shops, making it easy to enjoy local outings. Plus, there are multiple playgrounds nearby, giving kids plenty of opportunities to play and explore!" - Stephen

Favorite season and why?

"Autumn. I love the cooling weather, the bright colors, Halloween, and the anticipation of the holiday season." - Aaron

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

"Less hate and the need to divde people in to very specific little groups, and just more understanding and love." - Jonathan

The most special thing I own is...

"our dog. Although it's not so much as own as it is her being an integral part of the family. I love watching her grow, learn, and discover the world. And I'm most excited to see how she welcomes a baby into her life." - Kevin

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

"I would live out of an RV. I prefer being in forests versus open water." - RJ
