Hello! We are Lena and Sean from Oakland, California. Adoption already has special meaning to us, because we were both adopted and have experienced firsthand what it's like to be raised in a healthy, loving adoptive family. We would like nothing more than to provide that same environment now as parents. Since we both came from closed adoptions and know what it is like to wonder about your birthparents, we are committed to building a positive, ongoing relationship with you and your extended family through open adoption.
