My niece’s 1st St. Pat’s Day in NYC
MY SISTER IS MY BEST FRIEND!
She and her husband of 10 years live in the next state, and I see her and the rest of my family every other weekend. She has 2 daughters, 4 and 2, and we have so much fun together; my sister has allowed me to really help raise them and be a big part of their lives. My brother also lives near my sister and I see him regularly with my 11 year old nephew who calls me the “fun aunt”. My nephew is a good big cousin to my nieces.
MY PARENTS
My parents have been married for 52 years and they are also my best friends. My Mom is a kindergarten teacher and my Dad is a machinist. They have loved me unconditionally, provided a solid foundation for my life and always support and encourage me. They are so excited to welcome another grandchild into the family and can’t wait to give their love to another child.

MY SISTER SAYS
My sister is an outstanding candidate for an adoptive mother. She is an extremely loving person who will provide a safe healthy life for a child, full of happiness, laughs and amazing opportunities. Education, positive morals and values and the love of life and family will be highly instilled within the child. She is truly an asset to the life of a child. She is a wonderful aunt to our two daughters and they love to be with Aunta. She will fiercely protect the child, physically, emotionally and mentally and help them to achieve a wonderful, prosperous and satisfying life.”

Birthday in NYC with my loyal and amazing group of friends!
Diversity of Friends
I have a big diverse group of friends from different races and ethnicities. I am passionate about equality for all people and love being a part of a “global family”. I put a lot of effort into maintaining strong close friendships from all aspects of my life.
Many of my friends have children and it’s great to spend time together, play with them and watch them grow up, and looking forward to “play dates” in the future.
Clearwater Beach with one of my best friends & her kids
Jaimee is patient, intelligent, successful in her career and friendships, and she is most importantly humble and loving. As a friend for over 20 years, she is able to provide guidance and has a willingness for all to be happy and successful. Being in the presence of her around her nieces and nephew as well as my family, she is dedicated to this next path to motherhood. Because she is patient and has the quality of making a person feel calm, her ability to be an educator and a supportive presence – and all done with ease and love, she will make an amazing mother.
—GAIL, FRIEND FROM COLLEGE
I have male friends in my hometown, college and New York City who are an active part of my life and who I can’t wait to see as “uncles” and be able to provide strong male influences in my child’s life, from being role models to playing sports.
