Choose A Family : Parent Profile
Kelly & Chris
Dear Birthmother,
We can only imagine what you are going through. Your unselfishness will, undoubtedly, bring a wonderful life to your child.
Our family is young, happy and full of love. What you are about to read is a story of a family who came together and has tied a bond so strong that caring and loving hearts are produced everyday.
Our promise to you is that a child raised in our home will know who they are, love their family and life, and will be given all the possible opportunities to learn and live life to the fullest.
We thank you for considering us as we look to give all the love we have to a new addition to our family.
About Us
We are Chris and Kelly and we met at work as many couples do. Our immediate friendship turned into. We truly believe that we were always meant to be together.
It was immediately obvious that our relationship was built on a dedication to each other, a love of our time together and plenty of smiles and fun. It isn’t uncommon for Chris to start singing a crazy song to Kelly or for Kelly to make Chris laugh so hard it hurts.
When we started dating, we were very worried what Kelly’s kids would think about our relationship. Kelly’s son, Christopher, was 10 at the time and daughter Victoria was 12.
We all met one day in the park and the kids took to Chris like magic. For never being a father, Chris and the kids found a bond that was strong from day one. It wasn’t long until both kids stood in front of a congregation of friends and family and witnessed the formation of their new family through the marriage of their mom to Chris.
Our time together as a family is valuable as we look to spend as much time together as we can. We travel when we can and have spent plenty a weekend in the mountains on snowboards and skis, on the lake on Jet Skis and at the beach fishing. When we can’t get out of town, the four of us will take our bikes into the neighborhood and ride wherever the kids want to go. We have spent Saturdays watching Chris and Victoria play sports and they have come to see the things that mom and dad are involved in. At the end of the day, we come together as a family to eat. Not in front of the TV, but at the dinner table. It is this time that we get the opportunity to learn about each other’s day and enjoy just a few more minutes together. We cherish our family time and look to add one more to our family to enjoy this precious time with.
Chris has no biological kids of his own and has always had the understanding that he would father a child some day. Early in their relationship, Chris and Kelly knew that they would be parents to a baby and bring this new child up together, giving all they can to ensure the best and most successful life possible. The values we share are strong and can been seen throughout our lives. A strong dedication to education, family and an open heart and mind are everyday practices that we share in our family.
About Kelly
I am very spontaneous and enjoy adventures and trying new things. I am a devoted mother/wife who believes in open communication with my family.
I was an only child, raised by a loving mother and father. My mom left her career in the Air Force behind to stay at home and raise me. My father continued his work in the Air Force for more than 20 years.
My parents are a very loving couple who believe in encouragement. Not one day goes by where I am not told how proud they are of me. I have held the trait dear, and have passed this encouragement on to my children. I tell them everyday how proud I am of them and how much I love them.
I work in sales and I am definitely a people person. I get along with anyone. I am a very determined, strong woman who believes you can achieve anything you put your mind to. I enjoy gardening, bike riding, snowboarding and being a supportive parent and wife.
About Chris
I have been working in media for more than 12 years. The first 9 years I worked in the world of radio. I had the opportunity to meet some very interesting people and had the time of my life.
Radio led me to work for some local sports teams. One of the most exciting things I get to do is work as a PA announcer for our local hockey team. There is no rush more exciting than being in the middle of the ice and speaking to 9,000 screaming fans.
I have a brother and a sister. Jeff is 18 months younger than I am and Amy is eight years younger. I love them both and they share our excitement about having a new member of our family.
When I was eight, my parents sat where I am today. After a process similar to this, my parents adopted my sister. I know first hand how quickly she was a part of my family. She was part of our family from day one and I could not imagine my life without Amy.
About Victoria and Christopher
They took to Chris as if he had been their father all along. Without hesitation they began to call him dad. Victoria is very strong willed where Chris tends to be a little more laid back. They are both very excited about having a brother or sister and are looking forward to this new phase in their lives. Victoria is starting high school and Chris is going into Jr. High. Victoria is an avid reader, softball All-Star and just a brilliant child all around. Chris is a rough and tumble boy who loves to skateboard and go on new adventures and has a smile that will melt your heart. They are looking forward to welcoming a new child into our family.
Where We Live
We live in California just two hours away from beaches, deserts, and mountains. We live in a diverse area, which allows us to do many outings with our family and friends.
In Closing
We would like to express how excited we are to welcome your child into our lives. He or she will be welcomed by loving grandparents, a sister and brother and extended family members and friends. We will offer your child a strong foundation for life with unlimited potential, a respect for all living things, belief in one’s self and the courage to do what is right. Your child will have the opportunity to go to college and experience everything that life has to offer. We will love your child unconditionally, and will be thankful for the gift that was given to us.
