Hello! We are Derek, Deanna, and Stella Fradette. We would love to embrace your child into our delightful family of 3. Derek is selfless, patient, and an instant buddy to any child he meets. Deanna is a dreamer, energetic, and likes to live life to the fullest.

Everyday Life

Derek is a city building inspector and Deanna is a paralegal. We live in a quiet family neighborhood in an excellent school district. Family time includes games, walking, biking, making animal pancakes, and volunteering. At bedtime, we snuggle, read, and pray for a baby.

Pastimes

Camping, fishing, kayaking, deer hunting, watching car and snocross races, Vikings football, traveling. Stella plays t-ball and basketball, and started Girl Scouts.

Our Family

We provide a secure and loving home. We encourage our child’s imagination and independence. We teach life skills and responsibility through everyday tasks, as well as honesty and generosity. Stella will be an awesome big sister – she shares, cares, and plays well with any child.

We are seeking adoption due to infertility after giving birth to Stella. We support an open relationship with you and your family. Our supportive family all live within 30 miles.

THANK YOU! We recognize the difficult decisions you are trying to make for yourself and your child. We hope we can be part of your story. Please contact our case worker Dianne Delaney, (320) 251-7700. Check out our Facebook page: derekdeannaMNadopt
