We Are Ready to Adopt

We’re open to adopting a child from newborn up to around 2 years old. We feel well-prepared for the baby and toddler stages and believe that fits naturally with our current family dynamic. We’re open to any gender and are also open to adopting a child of a different racial or cultural background. We’re committed to honoring and celebrating their identity, and ensuring they feel fully seen, supported, and loved. 

We hope to have a relationship with the birth parent(s) that is built on trust, respect, and mutual care. We’re open to ongoing contact—whether that means sharing photos, letters, or occasional visits—depending on what feels right for everyone involved. Most importantly, we want the child to grow up knowing their story, their roots, and how deeply they are loved by all parts of their family. 

Our parenting approach is rooted in love, patience, and connection. We believe in creating a safe, supportive environment where our children feel heard, valued, and unconditionally loved. We prioritize open communication, consistency, and helping our kids develop confidence, kindness, and resilience. We’re big believers in fun, creativity, and family traditions—and we try to lead with empathy, always remembering that every child is unique and deserves to be understood and celebrated.

 We love spending time together, whether we’re out on an adventure or just relaxing at home. As a family, we enjoy traveling, camping, biking, skiing, and swimming. We also love movie nights, board games, baking together, and reading (especially anything Harry Potter!). Our home is often filled with music, laughter, and a little bit of chaos in the best way.

 Our extended family plays a big and loving role in our lives. We’re fortunate to have parents, siblings, and cousins who are incredibly supportive and involved—holidays and even random weekends often turn into joyful gatherings full of food, laughter, and games. We also feel our community is part of our family. We’ve built strong, lasting friendships with neighbors, church members, and local families who show up for each other in big and small ways. Our kids are growing up surrounded by people who love them, and everyone is excited to welcome another child into this big, caring circle.
