Hello!

We are Mark and Kelly, and we want to thank you for considering an adoption for your child. We have a deep respect for the love you have for your child.

We had been praying for a baby for many years, and 6 years ago our prayers were answered with being chosen to adopt our daughter, Mabel. Then 3 years ago, our hearts grew even more with the adoption of our son, Joseph.  We pray that we can continue to grow our family and adopt another child to raise and love! Mabel would love to be a big sister again and Joseph can’t wait to teach a younger sibling all the fun things he knows!

We want you to know that your child will be loved and cared for dearly by us, our families and friends. We are looking forward to everyday activities such as going on family walks around our neighborhood pond, eating dinner at our kitchen table, taking our children to church and reading books.

We pray for you as you make this difficult decision and continue to choose what is best for your child. We hope our profile will give you a glimpse into our lives. Thank you for taking the time to view our profile.

Blessings,
Mark, Kelly, Mabel (6) and Joseph (3)

Mabel and Joseph always have so much fun on Halloween. We trick-or-treat in our neighborhood and have a bonfire on our driveway when we pass out candy. Mabel was the tooth fairy this year and Joseph was a dinosaur! We enjoy celebrating holidays and making special family traditions with Mabel and Joseph.

One fun thing our family does together, is go to hockey games to cheer on our favorite team…GO BULLDOGS!

This is Mabel and she is 6 years old. She started Kindergarten this year and is so excited about learning how to read. Some of her favorite things are playing hockey, riding her bike, coloring and swimming. She is a wonderful big sister to Joseph and hopes to have another sibling join our family so she can teach them all she knows!

This is Jospeh and he is 3 years old. He LOVES dinosaurs, construction vehicles, building train sets and following his big sister everywhere she goes! He is a snuggler and loves being read to. Joseph would make such a great big brother if given the chance.

Mark built a hockey rink in our backyard this winter and it was a blast! Mabel and Joseph both love skating and shooting pucks into the nets. It was a really fun way for our family to spend time together outside during the winter months in MN.

We are Mark and Kelly and we have been married since 2012. We prayed for so long to have a family, and we’ve been truly blessed to adopt Mabel and Joseph. We would love to grow our family and adopt another child to love and care for. Some of our interests are going for bike rides, playing outside with Mabel and Joseph, watching hockey, being active with our church, and having friends and family over for gatherings.
