Jenifer & Michael In Washington

We met through family friends 15 years ago. We share the same values and life goals: spending quality time with family, traveling, education and having fun!

Jenifer is a licensed counselor and works for a private local company providing support to families dealing with chronic medical issues and aging. She loves her role as a mother to her two boys. Children have always been an integral part of her life. Early in her career, she worked in an adoption agency and fell in love with the concept of adoption. She comes from a family of care providers. Her mother was a certified health care assistant, and her father worked with adults with mental health disabilities. Hank, her French Bull dog, is a certified therapy dog. Not only does he provide comfort to her clients, but he is one of the best dogs ever. He loves everyone and truly has a heart of gold.

Mike works for the city in maintenance and is highly involved in activities with his family. He enjoys boating, dirt bike riding, music and being silly. He has a loving and supportive family. Mike is originally from Southern California, where he loved to surf and work on specialty cars. He is talented and enjoys home projects.

We are both involved in our local community church and find great strength from their faith and fellowship. As a family, we really enjoy being active when the weather is nice, traveling, exploring the outdoors, swimming and spending time with our extended family.

Our two boys, Trenton and Kamran are more than ready to be big brothers! Everyday there is a new thing that they are looking forward to teaching/showing their baby sister.

Trenton is 11 years old, energetic and funny with a big, kind heart. He is friendly and loves to play. It is hard for him to meet a stranger. Although he is a good student, he would much rather be outside doing something exciting. He loves to ride his dirt bike on the sand dunes or ride his wake board behind the boat. He is an excellent big brother to Kam and is looking forward to more adventures with a little sister.

Kamran is 8 years old, sweet, creative and sensitive. He loves to give big hugs, use his brain and talk. His favorite activity is swimming and spending time with his dog, Flynn.

We purchased our home 3 years ago in a nice, quiet neighborhood. It offers plenty of space and comfort with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. We enjoy having family get-togethers here. The nursery is all ready for baby's arrival. There is also a cute park across the street from us. Our boys enjoy riding their bikes and scooters around the neighborhood.

We have a large, warm, loud and loving family. Each holiday and many random weekends are spent together. Our family includes Aunts, Uncles, grandparents and a bunch of cousins. There is a variety of cultures, ethnicities and personalities that make us dynamic and unique. Spending time together is the best! Family traditions include: birthday celebrations, family trips, plays, church events and lots of laughter!

As a family, we love to travel! We especially enjoying cruising! Getting to see new places, try new foods and spend quality time learning together are just some of the perks. We spend quite a bit of the summer outdoors on the boat/at the lake. During the colder months, we enjoy playing board games, skiing/sledding, going to museums, reading and playing with our puppies.

Adoption has always been a dream/goal for us! After the birth of Kamran, Jenifer had some medical complications and is unable to have any more biological children. This was the final sign that adoption was meant for us. Our family desire is to have a little girl. We promise to love and cherish her forever.
