Waiting Families
Karissa & Connor’s Story
Our names are Karissa and Connor, we work as a nurse and a teacher. We own a lovely home that we share with our dog Cali. Together we enjoy spending time with family, playing board games, golfing, and traveling. Karissa enjoys reading, going for walks, and plays a little piano, while Connor is a sports fanatic who loves the Oilers and fantasy football, and also plays a little guitar. Family is the most important thing to us; we have nine nieces and nephews that we love spending time with whenever we get the chance. We have always seen ourselves becoming parents but unfortunately, we are unable to have biological children of our own. After learning more about the open adoption process, we believe that this is how we are meant to grow our family.
