			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This ALL American couple has experienced life to the fullest.  Educated, well traveled and with with a love story that is so touching… their greatest dream is to have a child with whom they can share their life and love.  We are very excited to share more about them. Meet…</p>
<p><strong>WILSON and MEGAN</strong></p>
<div id="attachment_2072" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://www.adoptionanswer.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Wilson-and-Megan-9.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2072" title="Wilson and Megan 9" src="http://www.adoptionanswer.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Wilson-and-Megan-9-300x168.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="168" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Wilson is an Officer in the Marine Corps and has also received his MBA. Megan is a Kindergarten Teacher. They are a striking couple, yet so down to earth when you meet them..</p></div>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Wilson was raised in Connecticut and Megan in Colorado.  They met while attending college in Florida.  After graduation, they went their separate ways and accomplished things independently.  A little while later, they reconnected and have now been happily married for 14 years.  Both of their upbringings were with loving families that encouraged them to be active and try new things.  Those experiences helped them to become independent and well rounded.   They are still very close with their families and enjoy regular family time with them.</p>
<div id="attachment_2073" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 235px"><a href="http://www.adoptionanswer.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Wilson-and-Megan-7.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2073" title="Wilson and Megan 7" src="http://www.adoptionanswer.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Wilson-and-Megan-7-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Skiing is just one of the many activities they enjoy together. They also like to go hiking, fishing and bike riding. On any nice and sunny day, you may find them on their boat, Condition One - snorkeling, swimming or whale watching.</p></div>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Wilson and Megan love adventure!  They also like to go hiking, fishing and bike riding. On any nice and sunny day, you may find them on their boat, Condition One – snorkeling, swimming or whale watching.  Wilson was raised near the ocean and they now live very close to the beautiful Pacific.  Close by are playgrounds, a pool, walking paths and a State Park.</p>
<div id="attachment_2074" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://www.adoptionanswer.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Wilson-and-Megan-61.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2074" title="Wilson and Megan 6" src="http://www.adoptionanswer.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Wilson-and-Megan-61-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Here they are with their friendly dogs.

<p><span style="color: #333399;"><em>Our dream is to have a family and to be parents.  Thank you for reading our story of love and hope and considering us to be the adoptive parents for your baby.  Choosing parents who will give your child a loving family and home, will be a very difficult decision.  There are many stories about love, sacrifices and happiness.  Our story is about all of these, but most importantly, it involves you.  You have this amazing ability to bring the ultimate joy to our lives.  We hope that after reading about us, your prayers and our prayers will be answered.</em></span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">We are Matt and Heather and we would like to thank you for taking the time and getting to know us. We have been married for 6 years and after 5 years of trying to conceive a baby and being unsuccessful we really began to pray. We have always known that we wanted to adopt and through prayer we were led to Adoption and introduced to Adoption Answer. So here we are today both excited to start this journey.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Matt is a regional sales manager and Heather is a preschool teacher. We both love the outdoors, camping, bike rides, snowboarding, hanging out at the beach. Matt has been surfing for over 13 years now. We both enjoy spending time and are very close to our families.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Matt and I are excited to start a family and promise to always love and provide the best for your baby. Words cannot express how brave and courageous you are for choosing life and giving life to your baby. We pray and hope for the best for you and your baby while making your decision.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Thank you for taking the time to consider us as adoptive parents for your baby. We are grateful and humbled by the decision you have made and we are so excited to become parents.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Both of us have been touched by adoption in our past. Kristen’s father was adopted by a loving mother who raised him as her own. Josh’s step father adopted him at a young age and they have a very strong bond. We believe that God has opened the door for us to adopt and we are excited to see His plans for our family. The road to this process has been a difficult one. Infertility is a painful challenge to face, but by the grace of God, through you, we can still have the family we desire.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Josh has worked at a local hospital for over 5 years. He enjoys reading, music, movies, and all things electronic.  Kristen is a homemaker and does volunteer work for local charities. She enjoys spending time with family and friends, baking, and anything crafty. Traveling is a favorite passion of ours and we look forward to many family vacations in the future. We are high school sweethearts, married for almost 6 years and together for 12. We have three dogs we love greatly and enjoy spoiling. Our extended families are supportive and excited to welcome a new family member. We have a strong marriage based on love and faith in Christ and we look forward to sharing that with our future son or daughter.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The child you are carrying is a gift from God; a gift we would be honored to receive. God bless you and may He grant you peace and hope through this process.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Greetings, and thank you for taking the time to get to know us!  We are Michael and Reine Lea (“Rain Lee”), and we have been married for 5 years.  Our relationship is built upon commitment, trust, honesty, laughter, and – of course – love.  While we do not currently have any children, we both strongly yearn to adopt a child into our loving family.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Michael is a family medicine physician for the U.S. Navy.  Outside of work, he can frequently be found running along the beach or absorbing himself in a fascinating book.  Reine Lea works with military families who are impacted by wartime deployments.  She is a musician at heart – playing her flute in the community and leading the church congregation in song every Sunday morning.  Together, we enjoy attending concerts/plays, taking walks along the beach, tending to our pets, and socializing with dear friends.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We sincerely honor your decision to place your child with an adoptive family.  If you have questions for us, we are more than happy to talk to you.  No matter the outcome, we pray that you ultimately find peace with your decision.  God bless!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_1986" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://www.adoptionanswer.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Jeff-Jennifer-2.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1986" title="Jeff &amp; Jennifer 2" src="http://www.adoptionanswer.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Jeff-Jennifer-2-300x199.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="199" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Jeff &amp; Jennifer</p></div>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We are Jeff and Jennifer and we are so thankful for the opportunity to write to you about our family and our hopes and dreams for a child. We’ve been happily married for over eight years. Adoption offers us a chance to realize our dreams and to give a child a wonderful life and a bright future. We honor you for the courageous decision you have made to choose life for your baby and to look at all the options available to help secure your baby’s future.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Jennifer has devoted her life to caring for others. She works as a Physician Assistant and specializes in the care of older adults. She sees this as a calling and just absolutely enjoys her patients. Anyone that knows her, though, understands that the most important title she holds is “mommy”.    Jeff is a counselor and clinical coordinator at a clinic that treats those with addiction. Jeff is passionate about his work and he believes in his patients.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Three years ago, we had the amazing opportunity to adopt our son, Chase. He is the light of our lives and everything is better since he arrived.  We know that he will make an excellent big brother and he is very much looking forward to the day when that happens. We can provide them with the best education available. We will expose them to many opportunities and help cultivate their passions.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Please know that we are praying for you during this time in your life. We are grateful that you love your unborn child so much that you are willing to consider an adoption plan for him/her. All children are gifts and you would be giving us the best gift imaginable by adding to our family.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">

<p>“We enjoy spending time with one another and look forward to having a baby to share our love with.”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Upon first meeting Henrik &amp; Alicia, you will know immediately that this couple is uniquely special.  The first thing that you will notice is their obvious love for one another.  They have a mutual respect for each other and are quietly affectionate with one another.  As both are educated as engineers, they ironically both have very creative sides as well.  They are lovers of art and music and are very cultured, yet down to earth as well. They are fun and friendly.  Henrik &amp; Alicia also enjoy spending time together playing sports outdoors or going on a walk or bike ride.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Recently, they enjoyed a Texas rodeo, fishing in the Northwoods of Wisconsin and an amazing adventure in St. John, Virgin Islands.  They are so looking forward to time at home with a new baby and planning kid friendly family vacations.Though they do not have children yet, they volunteer for their local Boy Scouts.  Alicia also involves herself with the Big Brothers/Big Sisters organization through her work.  They share, “Volunteering is a way we can be connected to our community and the kids within it while freely giving our time and sharing our talents.” We are thrilled to feature Henrik &amp; Alicia as we know that this special couple has so much to offer a child.  Education, stability, culture, a beautiful home, teaching the importance of giving to others, an incredible extended family and most importantly ~ LOVE.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">We are Kevin &amp; Jenn.  We have been best friends since middle school and have been happily married for five years.  We have a sweet, full of life two year old little girl name Brooklynn.  Having been through the adoption process with our daughter, we understand what a huge decision this is for you. We hope that you will consider us.   We both love being parents so much and cannot wait to give Brooklynn a little brother or sister.  Kevin works as the foreman for his dad’s company and also has his own business.  Jennifer loves being a stay-at-home -mom.  We are excited to grow our family and want to assure you that your baby will  be loved and adored by us and our big family.  We admire the incredible amount of courage you have and hope that you find peace in making this plan for you and your baby.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Thank you for choosing adoption for your child and for considering us as adoptive parents. We are the proud parents of an adopted son, Max, and understand the joy that adoption can bring to everyone involved. We would like to adopt a girl to give Max a sister and complete our family. Greg works for a large financial services company at a home office location and Stephanie works for a pediatric dental office two days per week, allowing her to be a stay at home Mom the majority of the time. We live in a suburb of a medium sized city and take advantage of the water parks, amusement parks, walking trails and all the other things our town has to offer. Our family is blessed with love, security and stability and after thoughtful prayer we have decided to adopt and share all the blessings of our life with a child. We are very close with extended family that has provided loving support throughout our process of starting our family. We sincerely thank you for choosing adoption and wish you all the best throughout the process!</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Aloha! Our names are Doug and Jen and we want to thank you for considering us as adoptive parents.  We grew up in Southern California and have known each other since our freshman year of high school. We currently live in Hawaii where Doug flies helicopters in the Army and Jen is a stay at home mom. We have been joyfully married for nearly seven years and have two adorable children that just can’t wait to have more siblings. In fact, our little girl wants three sisters and two more brothers!  Doug is an avid runner and teaches a weekly Bible Study.  Jen enjoys cooking and being a part of various church ministries.  Our family loves traveling, hiking, and hanging out at the ocean.  We both grew up playing sports, so anything active draws our interest.  We love God and are enjoying the adventure that He set before us. He truly has blessed us far more than we could ever have asked or thought. We are amazed by your courage and are praying for you and that beautiful baby.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_1622" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 228px"><a href="http://www.adoptionanswer.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Jody-Sarah-3.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1622" title="Jody &amp; Sarah 3" src="http://www.adoptionanswer.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Jody-Sarah-3-218x300.jpg" alt="" width="218" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Jody &amp; Sarah</p></div>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In speaking with Jody today, he shared that Sarah was out helping others and that her week was busy – helping others.  That does not surprise me at all.  Besides loving her role as stay at home Wife and Mom to their six year old son Edward, she is always helping others.  Jody works as a Structural Engineer and has a very good balance of work with a priority on family life.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Jody and Sarah were high school  sweethearts and have been in love and married for many years.  Though they were blessed with Edward biologically, there were many health risk factors that made that pregnancy very difficult.  They have shared that adoption is not their second choice though, it has been something that has been placed in their heart.  They cannot wait to be parents again and Edward looks  so forward to being a big brother.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Recently they went out of the country, as a family, to attend a good friend’s wedding.  They enjoy traveling together, and also have many activities that they participate in together close to home.  Both Jody and Sarah support Edward in all of his extra-curricular activities and the encourage him to try new things. They want for him to have a happy and fun childhood.  They are very loving parents.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This special family attends a church that they are very involved in.  Their faith is center of their life.  With much extended family around them and close enough to visit, family get togethers are a regular occurrence.  This family enjoys the traditions of all of the holidays, celebrating each person in a special way for birthdays and the comfort and happiness that their home brings them and others who visit them.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A NOTE FROM JODY &amp; SARAH ~</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We are very grateful that you are looking into adoption.  We want to grow our family through this type of miracle.  Jody is a Structural Engineer and Sarah is a stay at home mom.  We have one little boy who cannot wait to become a big brother.  Adoption is not a second choice for us.   It has always been in our hearts and we are thankful for the women who give the greatest gift to families like us.   We are looking forward to meeting you!</p>
