waiting to adopt

Life in our home is full – full of morning waffles & muddy cleats, family game nights & Friday night treats, blanket forts, open arms,  gentle reminders, & growing hearts. We're anything but perfect, but in all the imperfection, we have found something beautiful.

Still, we know our hearts aren't quite complete. We're ready — & waiting — with love that's already growing for the daughter we hope to welcome soon.

We're Katie & Brad — partners in every sense — married best friends raising a blended family of four boys & two doodle pups. We juggle life with open hearts, always making space for laughter, connection, & calm in the middle of real, beautiful chaos.

a little about US

We've built a life we love — but we know in our hearts, there's still someone missing.
 This page is for her, and for you.


dear birth mom →

She will always be a reflection of your courage & our deepest hope.

Our home is warm, steady, and full of love — and our hearts are open as we grow our family by one more heartbeat through adoption to have the daughter we have long dreamed of and continue to pray for.

Our hearts are open to various ages: a newborn, an older infant, a toddler, or older.

Adoption is the bridge that brings her to us, and you are the heart of that story. We honor your courage and strength &  we are grateful for your presence here.

OUR HEART behind
ADOPTION

SHE IS YOUR courage & strength. SHE IS OUR hope & joy. SHE IS FOREVER held by both.
