A Letter from Kleb & Wanjiku
Thank you for taking the time to consider us as your baby’s adoptive family. We’re a fun-loving, open-minded couple that is very excited to welcome a child into our lives. We’ve struggled with infertility and have come to believe that we’re meant to be parents through the gift of adoption. We look forward to Saturday afternoon soccer games, swimming and biking on the weekends with family and friends, and traveling to all corners of the globe during summer holidays. We hope our profile gives you insight into who we are as a couple, and we hope to meet you soon.
About Us
We met 10 years ago, and a few dates later, we knew that we had something special. We’ve been married for 5 happy years! We love spending time together. We laugh a lot and both greatly desire to grow our family. Wanjiku has always known that she wants to adopt. She even told Kleb about it very early on in their relationship. We strongly feel that this is our life’s calling. In our spare time, you will find us spending time with family, running, biking, cooking, and trying out new restaurants. We share a passion for traveling and experiencing different cultures. Recently, we visited Haiti, Dominican Republic, Barbados, and Mexico. We’ve built a happy life together and are eagerly awaiting our bundle of joy.
About Kleb
Kleb is a kind, caring, genuine, and intelligent man who does everything in his power to take care of his family and make me happy. Kleb is very reliable and always knows just what to say to make people feel better. He’s my rock. Ever since we met, he’s verbalized his desire to have children. Kleb loves spending time with kids, and kids love him back. He has 14 nieces & nephews and 4 godchildren who absolutely adore him! He’s very involved in their lives and has changed lots of diapers over the years! Kleb will make a wonderful father, and I can’t wait for the day he becomes one.
Kleb enjoys playing soccer, biking, cooking, taking care of the yard, and playing/relaxing at parks with his many nephews and nieces. He also volunteers regularly in our community.
About Wanjiku
Wanjiku is caring, upbeat, and kindhearted. She loves to laugh and is always ready to help friends in need. I don’t know where I would be without her love and laughter. Wanjiku has a competitive spirit and always strives for excellence. She’s a Nurse Anesthetist who enjoys caring for her patients. Wanjiku loves being around children and often volunteers to babysit our friends’ kids. She has 5 godchildren whom she visits often. I know in my heart Wanjiku will be a wonderful mother. She’ll love our child unconditionally and instill in them love, compassion, patience, and the drive to know anything is possible through hard work and faith.
Wanjiku enjoys swimming, hanging out with family and friends, reading, babysitting her godchildren, discovering new recipes, and hosting dinner parties.
Our Home in Georgia
We live in a spacious 4 bedroom house in a quiet neighborhood. Our home is full of love and memories. We have a large front yard and a fenced backyard with plenty of space for kids to run around and play. We live in a cul-de- sac with a basketball hoop where kids come to play basketball or ride their bikes. Our home is our sanctuary.
Our Families
We both come from large, close-knit families. Kleb has 7 siblings and 14 nieces/nephews who live in Connecticut and live within a few blocks of each other. Kleb talks to his family daily and is especially close to his mom.
Wanjiku has 3 siblings and 2 nephews in Georgia and Virginia. We live 15 minutes from Wanjiku’s parents and visit each other every weekend. Wanjiku’s mom has been a preschool teacher for 42 years and is ready to retire and become the primary babysitter! Wanjiku’s family spends Thanksgiving together and takes yearly vacations.
We also have many aunts, cousins, and close friends who we spend lots of time with. Family is extremely important to us, and we are both blessed to have them in our lives. Our families are excited about our adoption and are ready to welcome your child with open arms!
