Laura

I grew up in a small town outside of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania with my mom, dad and younger brother, Tim. I am an incredibly social person and also have lots of hobbies that I enjoy filling my time with! I LOVE to read, which has been one of my favorite activities since being a little girl. I already have a large children’s book collection started and cannot wait to read to my child everyday. Listening to all kinds of music is also one of my favorite activities, and I’m known for breaking out into song, even at work, where my coworkers will usually all join me! Creating and making things brings me a lot of joy, and some of the ways I express myself artistically are sewing, scrapbooking, painting, and building things. I usually give away my creations, but recently I have been sewing baby items like bibs, burp cloths, and blankets, and have been painting nursery decorations.

When I’m spending time with friends, it’s usually going on shopping trips, taking walks, having movie nights and game nights, having dinners out, going bowling, and playing mini golf. Although I am single and do not have children yet, I have an amazing network of family and friends who support me in my decision to adopt and raise a child. With an open heart, a strong spirit, and unwavering commitment, I am ready and eager to share all of the ups and downs and little moments along the way as I welcome a child into my life.
