Thank you for the opportunity to tell you about our family. Our story is like most……a mix of hopes and loss, joy and sadness. We are grateful that many of our dreams have come true…

 

…a loving relationship, beautiful home, healthy child, and supportive friends and family. But the fulfillment of these dreams inspire another, bigger dream – to have a second child to embrace into our lives, our hearts, and our home; a child who will share growing experiences with an older brother;

a child who will delight and teach us as they become all they were meant to be; and should you chose our family for an adoption plan, a child who will always know of your incredible love, courage and strength; and our undying gratitude and respect for you.

Jennifer

Having been raised in a large family, Jennifer enjoys meeting people from all walks of life. Her enthusiasm is contagious and her friends and family stay close with phone calls, e-mails, and visits.

Every two years, her mother, nine siblings and their families gather for a huge reunion. Whether part of the family through marriage, adoption, friendship or birth... all are warmly included. Jennifer feels blessed to be a stay-athome Mom and part-time computer consultant.

Her energy, patience and ideas seem boundless, while the loving connection she has with children is strong and true. She has created a life for her and Noah that blends her computer work with outings to the park, library, or nature center, and a whole lot of quiet time hanging out at home. On the few days each month that Jennifer travels, Noah stays with his Aunt Donna. Jennifer hopes to pass on a love of the outdoors and an awareness of the God-in-All-Life to her children. She is an avid reader, practices Pilates and yoga, and attends church regularly.

Denise

Denise was born in upstate New York, with an older sister and younger brother. People meeting her for the first time are often struck by how easy she is to talk to. Her down-to-earth manner and sense of humor helps others feel comfortable. Denise enjoys inviting her family and friends over for holidays, birthdays, and spontaneous cook-outs.

She loves playing with our son, Noah, and can make him laugh like no one else can. As an Abenaki tribal member, she hopes to pass on her native woodcarving techniques to her children, and works within the community to preserve the Abenaki culture.

She loves music of all kinds with a particular fondness for her mother’s favorite, Elvis Presley. Fascinated with all things mechanical, Denise became a civil engineer with an emphasis in highway construction. Her full-time work provides excellent benefits for the family. She has lots of vacation days and is often home in time to help cook dinner.

Noah

Noah is a happy toddler who loves trains, dogs, cats, playing outside and being read to. He jumps with excitement when told his friends are coming over and is learning to share. Noah is sure to be as protective and gentle with a younger sibling as he currently is with his parents and pets.

Our Home

We live in a quiet suburban neighborhood where parents still gather and talk while watching their children play basketball. There are wooded lots at both ends of the street, and a school playground within walking distance. The town park is a short drive away, with pools, hiking trails, and baseball diamonds. It is a favorite destination for a family walk with our dog Molly.

Thank You...

...for wanting the very best for your child, for your willingness to make a difficult decision, for taking the time to consider us. If you’ve seen something here that suggests this is the family your child was meant to join, we would love to hear from you. Should you wish, we would be honored to discuss the prospect of staying in contact over the years.
