Kristin, Irish Intended Parent in Nampa, Idaho, USA

Explain your reasons for wanting a surrogate/donor:

My husband was adopted by his foster parents when he was a child. He never new his biological mother or father. When we got together, I promised him that we could have a baby. In February of this year, we were crushed to find out that I had a softball sized tumor in my uterus that required a hysterectomy. I was crushed for months and he stood there by me. Now, I want to follow through on that promise, even if I am not the one to carry the baby. We just need the help of another caring soul to give us the tools to do so.

How would you best describe yourself(s):

My husband and I are fun, happy, motivated people. I am in college now and my husband works in networking and telecommunications. I have five children that I brought to the marriage from a previous divorce. My boys are 16 and 14 and my girls are 11, 10, and 3. We want one or two more to finish our bunch. The older kiddos will be leaving soon and we can't imagine the house being that quiet. We LOVE vacations and traveling. We go to Canada to see my mother, or back to Iowa or Utah to see his family. We both have family in northern Idaho as well.

Use this space to communicate a letter to potential Surrogates/Donors:

We can help. We can provide a good life for a baby and a huge extended family. We have great kids. Maybe even multiples if it happens that way- We can do it. I want to work with someone locally because we want to be a part of this. Thank you!
