Hoping to Adopt



We are hoping to adopt! We are so excited to be working toward adding another child (and their first family) to our family. We are approved through LDS Family Services. You can see our profile at https://www.itsaboutlove.org/ial/profiles/27073241/ourMessage.jsf and http://www.hopingtoadopt.org/index.php/family/letters/450. One of the best ways to share this dream of ours is through our family and friends, so if you know of anyone who might be interested in finding out more about our family or adoption in general, please share these links with them! You can also email us at markandsarah13@gmail.com. One of the great things about our agency is that they offer free counseling services to expectant parents to help them figure out what their options are, and whether to place their child for adoption or choose to parent. Our Social Worker's name is Kimberly Toronto and she is very easy to talk to. If you would like to reach her directly you can call the Ohio LDS Family Services office at 614-836-2466 or email at torontokw@ldsfamilyservices.org. We know that Heavenly Father is directing the work of adoption. We have seen the way in which adoption can join the hearts and lives of those involved, and we are so grateful that we have been able to have this amazing blessing in our lives.

For some reason I thought you lived in Northern Ohio. It is definately a small world, especially when you are Mormon. Thanks for the well wishes.
