We recently returned from Colombia, where we visited with this sibling group whom we met last year, Joe, Jack, and Sadie. Joe is 14 years old, Jack is 12 years old, and little sister Sadie is 7 years old. These three are closely bonded and dream of finding a forever family together.
Having witnessed other sibling groups be separated through adoption, all three of them expressed the hope to find a family who will accept them together. They shared specifically that they are hoping for parents who have “big hearts, enough for the three of us!”
Saidie is really good at Capoeira, likes beautiful dresses and the color pink. Her big brothers are protective of her and they both enjoy sports. Joe said “I hope for a Dad who can play sports with me and teach me golf.” Jack enjoys painting with the colors of the Colombian flag. Jack and Sadie love to eat Hawaiian pizza but like most kids, they do not like broccoli. Older brother Joe likes most foods, except for salads.
QUESTION: If you had a superpower, what would it be?
Joe: “To be able to fly!”
Jack: “To be Batman!”
Sadie: “To be invisible.”
These sweet siblings have faced adversity in their young lives and need a forever family who can provide them with love, affection and consistency. Simply being part of a sibling group places you in the “Waiting Child” category as it is statistically more difficult to find an adoptive family for siblings.
Siblings like Joe, Jack and Sadie, who are considered ‘waiting children’ generally have multi-faceted characteristics and needs which exceed the common characteristics and needs of children otherwise placed in one of our international programs. We are looking for the right family for waiting children because of their unique needs and vulnerabilities.
More information about this sibling group and their specific needs can be received after speaking with a member of our team.

If you receive and accept the referral of Joe, Jack and Sadie through Spence-Chapin, you will benefit from the generosity of our new BriDen Adoption Fund, which can offset the costs of adopting an international Waiting Child. The BriDen Adoption Fund is made possible by the generosity of a Spence-Chapin family.
