A little bit about us: married for eleven years now, we both grew up in eastern North Carolina, where we were surrounded by warm communities, loving families, and the natural beauty of the region. These formative years shaped us into compassionate, caring individuals eager to create a loving and nurturing environment for a child to flourish.
Our journey to start a family has been a long and complicated one, filled with love and loss. We have always wanted children, but Robin was told at a very young age she was likely infertile. With many years to create a firm foundation between just the two of us, we are as ready as anyone can be to welcome a child into our home, our lives, and our hearts.
Education has always been a significant part of our lives. With master’s degrees in hand, we have cultivated a deep appreciation for knowledge and the endless possibilities it brings. We envision a future where learning is not only encouraged but celebrated, where a child can explore their passions and discover their unique gifts.
Art, culture, and nature have a special place in our hearts. From visiting museums to exploring parks and hiking trails, we believe in exposing a child to diverse experiences and instilling in them a love for the world around us. We want to share the joy of music, the beauty of art, and the wonders of our natural spaces. We are extremely excited and are doing everything we can to prepare a new life into our home! As part of our adoption process, we have started a crowdfunding campaign. It may surprise you to hear that adoption related cost in Florida can easily be upwards of $60,000 or more. This is why we have set a goal of $30,000 to help ease the financial burden that often overwhelms adoptive parents.
