Andrea Uribe

is adopting 2 children from Colombia

My name is Andrea Uribe and I am so excited to be welcoming two children from Colombia into my home in Staten Island, NY! Jhon (7) and Edison (14) spent five weeks with me over the summer of 2021 and I completely fell in love with them. As soon as they left, I initiated my intent to adopt them and bring them home.

Jhon is a playful, active, and curious kid who loved learning how to swim, sightseeing, and asking lots of questions. Edison is a creative, vibrant, and fashionable teen who loves TikTok dances, laughing out loud, and making beautiful art. They are loving siblings who look after one another and make an amazing team. I can’t wait to have them back at home with me soon — it hasn’t been the same without them!

Check out these videos our local paper made of us over the summer:
