Hello!
We are Carter and Kebrina, and welcome to our family! We truly feel
blessed that you are taking the time to learn more about us. We can
imagine that choosing a family for your child is probably the most difficult
decision you will ever have to make, so we hope that knowing something
about us, will make it a little easier.
We’ve been married for 5 years, and met on match.com. We dated
for 2 years prior to getting married, and feel we have a very happy,
secure marriage. Shortly after we got married, we found out that we
would need to do In-vitro fertilization in order to have a child. After
our one and only IVF attempt, we found out that we were dealing with
infertility on both sides. Between that IVF attempt and our decision
to adopt, we pursued embryo adoption and adopted two embryos from a
wonderful couple. Unfortunately, the embryos didn’t survive the
thaw, and we were heartbroken. It has been over a year since we lost
those embryos, and decided that the right plan for us to grow our family
was to adopt.
We live an active, but family-oriented lifestyle. We love to travel,
and frequently travel for Carter to run in marathons around the country.
When we aren’t traveling, we love to spend time with our family.
In the summer time, we frequently go over to Carter’s parents'
house to swim and play. Our godsons love to come over there too, and
we often swim and run around with them in the back yard.
At Christmas time, we love getting together with Carter’s parents
and their best friends who are our extended family. This has been a
family tradition over the years, going from one house to the next in
a progressive dinner to enjoy the Christmas spirit. Carter and Kebrina’s
mom are always joking with each other this time of year as well. Our
families are excited about our adoption plan, and look forward to spending
time with their grandchild, niece or nephew and cousin.
We believe that whether you choose a closed or open adoption that you
are a part of our family forever. We will tell our child the story of
their adoption as he/she is able to understand, and they will know how
much you love them, and the courage and strength you had to choose an
adoption plan for them.
We would love to send you pictures and letters through the agency; however,
if an open adoption is not right for you, we would respect your wishes.
We want to tell our child that they were very loved from the very beginning,
and how special they are because they have so many people who love them.
Thank you for taking the time to get to know a little about us.
Warmest Regards,
