We cannot imagine how difficult this time is for you. We admire your strength and courage in making a potential adoption plan for your baby. We are here to support you in anyway that we can. We are grateful to be considered by you and to be able to tell you about our family.
We are so excited to adopt and bring another child into our family, as we recently adopted our 7-year-old son, James!
We hope our story will help you in making your choice. Please know that no matter what you choose, we wish you and your child all the best. We look forward to meeting you.
OUR STORY
WE MET WHEN WE WERE CHILDREN.
We grew up as neighborhood rivals our entire life, two blocks from one another. In High School, Ashley started to have a crush on Jason and would leave little love notes in his car while he was at basketball practice and the next morning she would have one in her locker. Both families were very surprised when we started dating because growing up, we always picked on each other. Yet we feel it's only made our bond that much stronger, because here we are—we have been together for 18 years and married for 11.
“We are very excited to be adopting again and welcoming another child into our loving home.”
OUR HOME AND FAMILIES
We live in Illinois near the Mississippi River. Our home is located in the country with a lot of land surrounding us. We live in a smaller subdivision and we are so close with all of our neighbors. We have several kids in our neighborhood. In our area we have several activities throughout the year with the school and certain holiday traditions and parades. Our area is extremely family-friendly and a very close community.
MEET OUR PETS: Dogs - Rupert and Ralphie; Cat - George; Rabbit - Kringle; Dwarf Frogs - Harry and Marv.
We get together with both sides of the family often.
Both of our parents still live one block from each other and those are the homes we grew up in. Our family all lives in the area and we all get together for every holiday, birthdays, and each family has a camping trip every summer.
