All About Sohail & Elizabeth

We met on a dating app in 2014 in the summer, and immediately fell in love and we have really gotten to grow up together. We did long distance across the country for a couple of years, but now, we have been married 5 years and have been together a total of 9 years! We are such a great team in this life and have been through a lot of life together and every time we have come out stronger, closer and even hopeful. We are looking forward to becoming parents some day! We are a fun loving, and creative couple that enjoys remodeling homes, going to the beach, going to the zoo, being active, trying new activities, watching as many sunsets as we can and anything to do with water, we are in! We also love making good food with family and friends and making memories. We are in the home remodel and real estate businesses and we love working together! We get to make our own hours, which allows us the flexibility to see family in and out of state and have time for friends and date nights for ourselves. We are very hardworking but definitely enjoy our downtime being outdoors, spending time with our loved ones, watching the waves, or curling up on the couch to watch a good movie. We value quality time with each other and our loved ones. That is the most important thing in life to us. Quality time, making memories and soaking up the life we are blessed enough to have! We look forward to sharing our life with a little one and get a chance to share more memories with them!

Why Adoption?

We are excited to be parents and feel that adoption has always been our calling. We have always held that in our hearts and knew it was right. We have suffered two miscarriages in our marriage and through the losses it simply re-affirmed our hearts calling to adopt.

Family & Home

We live in beautiful, sunny Southern California in a lovely community. It’s lush and green, full of families and close to Elizabeth’s family and all of our friends. We live in one of the best school districts, and it is a sought-after / safe place to be. We are close with our families and enjoy spending quality time with them as much as possible! We have a lake near us, tons of parks and playgrounds and tons of activities within our radius. We are so grateful for our community and the opportunities for work and kids. We are a short drive to the beach, which is a huge plus as well. We have two pets, and they love where we live; there are lots of dogs, young families, and shops galore! Our home is full of natural light, fully remodeled in California modern style, and quite cozy. We love art and have a fun art collection.

How others describe me

We are truly best friends and still very much in love every day. We balance each other in every way and can pick each other up when we fail or just need extra love. We are a mix up extroverted and introverted as a couple and can be outgoing all the while enjoying curling up at home just the two of us. We are both so giving and kind to others and really put others first before ourselves. We love fiercely and intentionally and our love languages include gift giving and acts of service.'

Advice to Future Child

Be strong little one. Be confident. Be passionate. Take up space in this world. Be kind. Be generous. Be humble. Love often, keep an open mind and never take it personally if others are mean to you; it is a reflection of who they are, not you. You are capable of anything, we will always believe in you and support you.

Perspectives on Open Adoption

We think open adoption is truly special. It allows for the child to feel confident in why they were placed for adoption. It gives them the opportunity to know where they came from and have a relationship with their bio parent(s) if they choose. They can ask questions, learn and get more help understanding that it isn’t abandonment, but just more people to love them. We think it helps foster a healthier relationship with themselves and helps them form their identity.
