Aaron and Mary
We are Aaron and Mary, and our kids' names are Lyla and Rex. Aaron is an Assistant Technical Director at our church and has been there since 2006, and Mary is an Assistant Director at a childcare center and she has been there since 2005. Mary was diagnosed at 19 with severe endometriosis and was not expected to easily become pregnant, therefore both Rex and Lyla were miracles as they were both conceived naturally and easily. We are so grateful that God gave us 2 amazing kids before Mary had to have her hysterectomy. Rex is 9 and loves karate, board games, video games, playing outside with friends and reading. Lyla is 6 and loves soccer, soccer, tea parties, babies, and playing outside with friends! We have had a heart for adoption for many years and decided as a family this year to start the process. Lyla and Rex talk often of their future younger sibling and they cannot wait to help care for them, and we pray for our future child and for their birth parents every day. One of our nephews, Gabriel, is adopted and is very excited about having an adopted cousin one day. Gabriel and his adoption story are a big part of what made us fall in love with the idea of adopting ourselves. We know that while it will bring us great joy to bring another child into our family in this way, there will be heartbreak and loss for their birth parents and we hope to keep that connection open so that their birth parent knows how they are doing and growing as the years go on, and so that they can know about where and who they came from as well. We hope that as you look through our profile it will give you a glimpse into our family and how much we love each other, our families, our friends, and our future child.

Hi. My name is Jamie. The only words I can think of is Thank You. I feel love for you and will pray for you always. You are a Brave person to possibly place your child for Adoption. The decision you are going to make is not easy. I am looking to share my love, life, family and everything else with a child joining my family, and friends. I have been thinking about adoption for years. I have a huge support system behind me that is encouraging me. I will be a single mother but I have so much love, kindness and patience to give. I want to share with children my blessings and adventures. I would encourage them to be the "more" that they could be, have, and enjoy. May God guide you in your decision, give you the grace through the process and comfort you through your future steps.

Colin and Wendy
We love each other and the idea of building our family. Unable to have children of our own due to unexplained infertility, we were surprised to hear of being pregnant. God had other plans and our baby miscarried. We feel we are to redirect our focus on adoption and look forward to meeting the little one that He wants to place in our lives. Colin is a loyal family member, friend, and colleague. He is well respected in our community and at work. Colin is "all boy". He loves to watch football, baseball, hockey, and lacrosse. He enjoys playing ice hockey, skiing, snowboarding, tennis and riding bikes. Colin enjoys our sweet neighbors and their children. We have eight children on our block! Many run up to greet him when he comes home from work. Colin is kind hearted, gentle, slow to anger and sweet spirited by nature. Colin is an outstanding husband and would make an incredible dad. Wendy loves to dream big and sets lofty goals for herself. She has accomplished her goals and loves to set new ones on a regular basis. She works hard and encourages others around her raise the bar for themselves. Wendy has such a loyal and kind heart. She is such a blessing to our friends and families. She loves to travel and she has seen the world. Wendy is a good steward of our resources, gifts, has such a light heart and loves to laugh. She laughs with me, at me, and for me. This has been such a blessing to our marriage. She is an outstanding wife that displays love to me and will embody that same love to a child.

Michael and Faith
Hello! Thank you for considering adoption- it's a brave choice. We wish you a journey full of comfort, hope and encouragement. We recognize that whatever situation you are in, you have difficult choices ahead of you. No matter what you decide, we hope you feel loved and supported. Our goal for this profile is that you get a sense of who we are and the type of family we would provide for your child. Thank you for taking the time to look at us as potential adoptive parents. The journey that has lead us to adoption has been a difficult one. We have had two babies, each died within hours of being born. We didn't know it at the time, but in-depth testing revealed a genetic disorder, meaning the same thing could happen if we tried again. We decided we didn't want to take the chance and opted to pursue adoption instead. We adopted a baby in 2019 and it has been an amazing experience. Our son is almost 4 now and we are excited to add another baby to our family. We can't wait to see what God has for us in the future. -Mike & Faith

We have been married for 16 years and continue to learn more about each other every day. We are both Christians and strive to teach our children how to grow closer to God. God has blessed us with four wonderful children, three boys and one girl. The boys are 13, 12, 4 years old and our daughter is 9. Our children are very close and love playing together. The boys are very protective of their sister. Our children are each uniquely gifted with their own personalities, each created in the image of God. They are so excited to welcome another sibling into our family, and pray for that regularly.
