dear expectant mother

It is such a blessing that you’re considering an adoption plan and are reading our profile. Our dream is to provide a beautiful, loving home. We want nothing more than to provide for a child and open them up to a world of endless possibilities.

We are both so excited to bring a child into our family. We can’t wait to watch them play in the backyard, decorate their bedroom, and pass down our families’ traditions. We are excited to bake cookies, cakes, breads and--a family favorite--make tamales tamales! We have a wonderful home with plenty of space to play. We also have a beautiful garden full of flowers, vegetables, and avocados. One day we’ll build a garden bed just for a growing child. On top of gardening, baking, and cooking, we also have a piano in the home. Music is very important to us, and we would love to teach a child how to play.

We understand that choosing the right people to raise your baby is a big and emotional decision. However, our promise is to provide family, love, and support to a child. This is a household where we truly believe in and support each other. We can’t wait to provide the same to a baby.

About Us

Joe is an attorney at an multinational law firm, and Eric is building his own salsa company. We have been together for over seven years and married for almost five. Our relationship is built on family, love, and support. Eric supported Joe throughout his time in law school, and Joe is supporting Eric as he builds his salsa business. We are a good balance for one another. As a couple, we are very ambitious. When we aren’t working, we enjoy cooking, gardening, and taking road trips with our dog, Casper. Spending time with our families is very important to us. We are always having family over or going to their homes. We recently purchased our first home and are excited to build our own family together.

Our Home & Pets

There are so many aspects to our home that we love. Eric has built a beautiful garden in the backyard. Next to it is a large patch of grass that would be perfect for a child to play. We also have the backyard set up for nighttime movies, which is something we can’t wait to do with our child. We also have a wonderful, loving dog, Casper. We are just a walk away from downtown and can’t wait to walk down there with our child and dog and grab ice cream and visit the local farmers markets.

Our Extended Family

We both have family in the area, and we spend a lot of time together. We enjoy getting together with all of our family members for every birthday and holiday. We love to cook and play games together. It’s always such a great time!

It’s a family tradition for Joe’s side of the family to get together on Christmas Day. We always do a prime rib dinner, open presents, and play games (bingo is a family favorite)! We can’t wait to have our child join in on the fun. On holidays, we also love to play family trivia. This consists of fun stories that happened to us and the one who guesses first gets a prize! Joe’s family loves games and surprising each other. We also all love to bake and cook. Joe’s mom is the master at Italian cooking and sister-in-law is the best baker. We are always in the kitchen when we get together.

Eric’s side of the family gets together on Christmas Eve, which works out perfectly for us. The weeks leading up to Christmas, we all get together and make tamales. It’s a tradition that we do every year, and we are excited to pass this tradition on to our child!

What Led Us To Adoption

We both felt adoption was the right avenue for us to build our family. We have had friends who have gone through the adoption process, and they all had positive experiences with it. Once we were married and purchased our first home, we knew we’d want to begin building a family of our own. We know we can provide a loving home for a child and are excited to embark on this journey!
