Michelle and Kris

Michelle and Kris

We’re Kris and Michelle, and we’re grateful you’ve taken time to learn about us. We love being active and outdoors together, and we’re excited to grow our family through adoption. We can’t wait to share our home, our love, and the life we’re building.

A letter to the birth parents

Dear Birth Parent(s),

As we sit down to write this, we find ourselves thinking about you, about your strength, your love, and the courage it takes to make a decision like this. We know this journey isn’t easy, and we want you to feel the respect and compassion we hold for you every step of the way.


From the very beginning, becoming parents was a dream we shared. When infertility became part of our path, it didn’t dim that dream...it made it clearer. We realized that family is built through love, intention, and the willingness to open your heart in ways you never expected. That’s why this connection with you means so much to us. The time you’ve spent getting to know who we are, what we value, and the kind of parents we hope to be is something we deeply appreciate. Your openness has allowed us to share our lives with you, and we don’t take that for granted.


We want you to know that if we are chosen to parent your child, they will grow up surrounded by love, stability, laughter, and unwavering support. They will always know that their story began with your courage and your love. Thank you for seeing us, for considering us, and for allowing our lives to cross in such a meaningful way.

Michelle

Human Resources

My name is Michelle, and I was born and raised on Long Island. Family means everything to me, and I’ve always stayed very close with them. I’m fun and outgoing, love meeting new people, and shooting pool has always been one of my favorite hobbies. I work in a school district, and on weekends we enjoy biking, the beach when we can, and spending as much time outdoors as possible.

Kris

Aircraft Dispatcher/Master Chef

My name is Kris, and I’m originally from Queens, New York. I’m very close with my brother and sister, and family has always been at the center of my life. One of my biggest passions is cooking — experimenting with new flavors, learning new techniques, and sharing good food with the people I love, especially my wife and favorite sous‑chef, Michelle.

Our Community

We live in a family‑oriented community, and our dog Stella is always outside running, sunbathing, and happily greeting anyone who walks by. Our home sits on a quiet cul‑de‑sac, a cozy place filled with love, laughter, and the everyday moments that mean the most. As Stella lounges in the yard and the sun sets across the neighborhood, we’re reminded of how much this house has become our safe, joyful space — and how ready we are to fill it with even more love as we grow our family.

From being friends with Michelle, she quickly became extended family. She is loving, caring, giving and has open arms for all. - Tiff
