Travis and Sarah

Thank you for taking time to learn more about our family as you consider us as potential adoptive parents for your child.  We are very excited to embark on this journey of growing our family through adoption.  We have both had experience with adoption through our own families so when we began to discuss our future family we both knew adoption was something we wanted to pursue.  We are so happy to share a little bit about ourselves and our family with you.

Why Adoption?

We met in college and during that time Sarah was diagnosed with Poly-cystic Ovarian Syndrome. We were told it would not be impossible to have children but would be extremely difficult. Sarah was adopted as an infant and knew she wanted to adopt when she was older so we discussed our options and quickly agreed it would be something we would pursue whether or not we could have biological children. After our wedding and trying to conceive for over 4 years, with some medical assistance, we both decided our calling was to adoption.
