Dear Expectant Mom

We are Tiff and Kathrin, and our daughter, Sedona. We are a multicultural, fun-loving, two-mom family, and we want to start by saying we are thankful you are taking the time to read our story.

Before we introduce ourselves, we want to express our sincere respect for the choice you’re making. Sometimes life gently brings people together in unexpected ways, and through its challenges, we’ve all found our way...

About Tiff (By Kathrin)

Tiff is an amazingly caring wife, mom, daughter, sister, teacher, and neighbor — a truly giving person. Her steady patience and thoughtfulness keep our family balanced each day. Tiff usually starts our mornings with a kiss and a lighthearted joke—subtle, calm reminders to choose to make today a good day.

About Kathrin (By Tiff)

Kathrin is silly and bubbly, relentlessly driven, and her cheerful spirit keeps our family life vibrant. Born and raised in Germany, Kathrin’s heritage is an important and joyful part of our family. We savor good German food, celebrate German holidays, visit family there each year, and speak both German and English at home. We believe that our child, Sedona, and a future child will grow up with a broader...

About Sedona (By Her Moms)

Sedona, born in 2019, is a loving, active, and fun-spirited girl. She is Kathrin’s biological daughter and Tiff’s step‑daughter — a role that makes no distinction in our home, because we are a family, not made by genetics but by love and the everyday moments we share. Kathrin and Tiff love Sedona for all she is.

Our kiddo absolutely adores the color green — nothing is quite right to her unless it’s green, which perfectly...

Our Family - It Takes A Village

We are excited about the journey ahead, and so are the amazing people we are blessed to call our village.

Tiff’s parents (Meme and Papa) are the kind of grandparents who bring joy to every gathering. They love babysitting, hosting big family dinners, celebrating holidays, and filling their home with family, friends, and laughter. Tiff grew up on...

Our Home - A Foundation of Love

We can honestly say it: we live in our dream home. In January 2024, we took a leap and bought a house that needed a lot of love. Despite the required updates, we were ready for the challenge and excited to make this house our home. Six months later—thanks to hard work, elbow grease, and help from friends and family—our house has become the warm, welcoming home we envisioned.

It’s a charming two‑story home on a quiet cul‑de‑sac,...

Everyday Moments

To offer a glimpse of what life may look like for a new child joining our family, we would like to describe the rhythm of our daily life:

Weekdays and Weekends:

Weekdays have settled into a comforting rhythm - mornings begin with cozy breakfasts, coffee, and snuggles on the couch before we drive our kiddo to school and send her off with a quick...

Thank You

Thank you for taking a moment to learn about our family. We see the love behind every step you are taking on this path to adoption, and we are touched by the selflessness and care you bring to this journey. We hope you feel supported and surrounded by compassion as you make this deeply personal decision.

If you feel in your heart that our family would be a good match, we will honor your unwavering care for your child by loving them fiercely and raising...

Holidays and Traditions

There are so many traditions that make our family feel connected and put us in the spirit of the season.

Springtime is full of fun celebrations, such as the many community Easter egg hunts, our family Easter gathering, and the school’s Spring Fun Day.

Summer brings a festive Fourth of July kids’ parade, rubber‑duck races along the stream, library programs,...
