Madison is 10 years old and in the 5th grade. She is so smart and beautiful. She has a very sweet and loving spirit. She loves to dance, sing, write songs, is learning to use her sewing machine, and is good at crocheting. She loves to read and does very well in school. Madison also likes to participate in dance, gymnastics, softball, and swims on the swim team. She has spent time learning to play the piano and wants to learn to play the guitar. Madison is so excited to have a little bother or sister in our home. -Mom
Madison is one of the most loving kids I have seen. As I see her grow it’s funny to see the endless love that she has for every human in the world. She is a teacher by heart I believe. She loves to help others and feels bad when someone is left out. If she had her way the world would be one big family that always got along great. Her current stage in life is being the thinker. She ponders for hours I have noticed to figure out an item and then develops a plan of attack for whatever it may be. This I assume she has picked up from her mother. -Dad
Aliya is 7 years old and in 3rd grade. Ali is our little comedian. She is so full of spunk and can make anyone laugh. She has such a fun bubbly personality. She loves school, reading and art. She loves to dance and on any given day can be found turning up the tunes and watching herself dance in the TV teaching herself all the good moves. Aliya loves gymnastics, and swims on the swim team. Aliya loves art, crafts and designing Barbie clothes on her sewing machine. She likes to play the piano and wants to learn to play the cello. Aliya is so excited about having a new baby in our home and would love it if we would bring home 3 or 4. -Mom
Aliya loves to keep up with her older sister. Aliya is a task oriented kid. When you ask her to complete something she is the kid that gets it done so she can play or relax. If she had her way she would wake up every morning to see Kira or myself off to work. She is the early to bed and early to rise girl. She is just like her older sister in wanting to be a teacher and lead the way for her younger brother. She is a home body and loves to do family stuff. Aliya is also the listener type that is a shoulder to cry on whenever her sister has had a bad day. -Dad
About Joseph
Joseph is 3 years old and in preschool. He is so cute! He’s getting better at talking now and is always saying the funniest things. Joseph has such an amazing laugh you can't help but laugh too when you hear it. He can be found running around the house in any of his many costumes playing pretend. His current favorite is Bumblebee the transformer. He also is very fascinated with dinosaurs and trains. Joseph loves music, riding his bike, and playing with his dog. He often talks about having a baby who will come stay at his house. -Mom
Joe is 3 years old and is definitely a boy. Joe loves to be outside and is the fix it man. At the age of three it seems to be his favorite thing to hammer stuff and see how tools work. He has his plastic drill and play set in his room, and he could spend all day in there if you’re not careful. My mom said he is a lot like me in his personality. He’s in preschool with a neighborhood group and I noticed he is the quiet one most of the time. As time continues it will be fun to see him develop and see what he grows interested in. -Dad
Neighborhood
We own a home in a small town. The neighbor hood is very kid friendly, and there are children of all ages close by. There are several other families in our neighborhood who have adopted children. Although the primary race is Caucasian, there are children from all races in the neighborhood and they all play very well together. Our house is located only a few blocks from the elementary school and local church house.
Family
Family is our number one priority. We are very close to our extended family and spend a lot of time with them. Whether it be, traveling, celebrating a birthday or holiday, going to a school program or just to dinner, we love to be together. We are so grateful and blessed for the love and support our family gives us!
