Waiting Families

I would never...

"I would never give up on the people I care about or compromise my values, no matter what." - Andrew

Dogs or cats?

"Dogs- there is no other answer" - Andrew

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

"How beautiful the moon is" - Max

My best friend would describe me as...

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

We are the best choice because…

"I am dedicated to providing a home where the child is free to become their truest self, is healthy (physically, mentally, and spiritually), and knows they are loved and cared for. I have created a life where I can be both a working mom and a stay-at-home mom (with no chance of divorce!), exploring induced lactation (yes, adoptive moms can breast-feed!), and living in one of the most child-friendly neighborhood near our nation's capitol." - Ronda

My favorite place in the World is...

"The place I love to take my sisters kids is to the lake. My niece and I love going paddle boarding & swimming together and I get excited every time my nephew takes me down to the water before dawn. I’m not a morning person, but I love that feeling on the dock as the sun is coming up and he's teaching me how to fish. (I'm slllooowly getting better)" - Brittney Krasts

Do you consider yourself religious or spiritual?

"Absolutely not" - Ian

My philosophy on parenting is...

"My philosopy on parenting centers around love and logic and of course staying flexible, because as the child grows their personality will shift and evolve and we'll need to ensure we support them on their journey. Love and logic really focuses on loving the child no matter what the circumstance, and helping them grow and make their own decisions based on logic and teaching them their choices have outcomes, whether those be positive or negative. this really helps the child develop critical thinking and shows that you are supporting them rather than telling them who they should be or what they should do. Love, support, structure, and education is the foundation I believe in, to provide the child the best possible options as they grow up." - Jonathan

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

"RV! I would love to drive around and explore the US!" - Mandy
