2688-dWe are Brian and Kathleen and our son, James.  We welcome you into our lives and thank you for considering us as adoptive parents of your child.

We met in college and were married in 2003. We both pursued careers in teaching.  Our Christian faith is central to our commitment to each other and the relationships we form with friends and family.  In 2014, we adopted our son James, who has brought abundant joy to our family!

We are a parenting team working together as Houseparents at a private residential school.  James is always with us while we are working, therefore, we do not need daycare to care for him.

Our diverse neighborhood is full of many active families with children.  We enjoy community events, the pool and the traditions of family vacations, holidays and birthdays.

We believe it is important for a child to know their birth family and would like to have an open relationship with you.  We will talk openly with your child about their birth family and adoption story from the beginning.  We will exchange letters and photographs with you and arrange visits together to maintain relationships as your child grows.

We look forward to meeting you and forming a positive and trusting relationship.  You will always have a special place in our family and your child will know how much you love them.  We wish you the best and thank you for opening your heart to hear our story!
