Hello,
We are Mark, Lorie, and Jake. We admire your decision to give life to your child and imagine how difficult it must be to contemplate other options. Thank you for considering us as part of your adoption plan and taking the time to get to know us.
We met in January 2006 during a night out with friends and it was not long before it became evident to everyone who knew us that we were in love. In 2008 we were married and became hopeful of growing our family. It took some time and a few detours with infertility treatments, but we were finally blessed with the opportunity to share our love with Jake through his adoption in 2011.
Having fun together as a family is very important to us. Lorie is a stay at home mother who uses her prior experiences as a teacher and therapist to engage and educate Jake with fun and creative activities. Mark, a Web Developer, arranges his schedule to allow optimal time with Jake. Jake has breakfast and books with Mark every morning and looks forward to Mark returning home at night in time to share his dinner, bath, and bedtime routines. We look forward to the weekends so we can do things like hiking, swimming, playing with toys, or going to different playgrounds.
Being parents has brought such joy to our lives. Now that Jake is two, we are excited about the possibility of adopting again and we would feel blessed if our journey led us to be able to grow our family with you. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. God Bless.
