It is a pleasure to introduce ourselves to you! We are so thrilled to embark on our fourth adoption journey! We are a family with three adopted children and two dogs. Our home is happy, bustling with activity, and full of love. We love spending time together and laughing as a family. Some of our favorite things to do together are travelling, going for walks, reading, and spending time outdoors. We hope this gives you a glimpse of what we are like. We don't pretend to understand what a significant decision this is for you. We admire your bravery and strength, and we are praying for your peace and wisdom as you begin this journey. We enjoy an ongoing relationship with the birth moms and birth dads of our daughter and youngest son, and our older son has a closed adoption. We respect whatever openness choice you make. We have always loved children, and adoption has been on our hearts for a long time. We found out that we were unable to have biological children, and through this process, God has been faithful to us. He has shown us that He has plans for our lives and our family that are better than we could imagine. We are very excited to welcome another child into our home through adoption, knowing that all children are beautiful blessings from above.

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.

We pray that God sends angels to surround you with love at this time and that you feel seen and heard. God has brought you to this very moment as part of His divine plan to care for you and show you His unending blessings for your life. He has brought us together for this very reason. We applaud you for making adoption your decision. We have been praying for a baby for many years and we can’t tell you how grateful we are for you. You are truly SPECIAL, STRONG, SELFLESS, and LOVED. We promise to do everything in our control to provide a loving, nurturing, joyful life for your precious little one. We will flood everything we have into loving this baby, and with your help, they will grow up knowing how exquisite they are, how celebrated they are to us and how loved they are by you.
