Jolissa and Daniel

 

Hello there, we are Jolissa and Daniel.

We are thrilled that you are reading our profile. We've been married for 7 years now and can't wait to share our lives with our first, beautiful, precious baby that we can explore the world with. It has been a real struggle not being able to grow our family due to infertility issues, but we are so excited to continue our journey through adoption.

 
 

About Us

We have been married for 7 years and our family includes two loving boxers, integral to our joyful home life. We faced challenges with infertility, but that isn't going to stop us from growing our family through adoption.

Hi, I'm Jolissa. I'm a creative Latina from Texas, I love my career as an IT professional and enjoy crafting, especially baking. I look forward to sharing my love for creating with our child. 

Hi, I'm Daniel. I'm a passionate reader of comic books, I enjoy movies, particularly in the adventure and fantasy genres. Both of us love celebrating momentous occasions with family and friends, creating a warm atsmosphere with a strong sense of community.

Our lives are filled with travel and unique experiences, from staying in a German castle to kayaking under the stars. We love and value nature, having built a home garden and looking forward to stargazing at Big Bend.

We're excited to welcome a child into our world of exploration, learning, and love, promising a life enriched with creativity, warmth, and adventure.

 

Home and Family

We live in a warm, five-bedroom house in Arlington, Texas, which has been our home for the past three years.

Our neighborhood is not only friendly but also located across from one of Arlington's largest parks, featuring excellent hiking trails, and close to attractions like Six Flags and Rangers Stadium. Our home truly comes to life during the holidays; we revel in decorating extravagantly for Halloween and Christmas, turning our space into a festive wonderland.

Our family includes two incredibly loving and playful boxers. These dogs are more than pets; they bring joy, companionship, and an extra layer of love to our daily lives. They're always ready to offer a comforting cuddle or play, making our home lively and full of laughter. 

Family traditions are the cornerstone of our household, with our extended family and friends forming a tight-knit community. Celebrations like Easter egg hunts, Fourth of July fireworks, and festive gatherings for Thanksgiving and Christmas are cherished traditions that reinforce our bonds. These events are not just fun; they are treasured moments that deepen our connections with those we hold dear. We are excited to welcome a new member into our family, ready to share our love, culture, and joyful home.
