The Lee Family

Meet the Lee family! Samuel and Emily are the parents of a blended family with 4 children. Only the youngest (8 years old) lives with the couple full time., but the other 3 visit periodically. All 6 of the family members are eager to add onto their family through adoption! Sam and Emily’s adoption journey is driven by God’s calling as they would like to help be the hands and feet of Jesus by giving a child a loving and caring home to thrive in. The Lee’s live in a wonderful neighborhood in Mississippi and reside about a mile from the water. They love to spend time outside and participate in activities such as fishing, boating, and gardening. They have a close relationship with their neighbors and together they host cookouts and fun events year-round while the kids play outside.

This family loves to travel too! They make many trips to their river house throughout the year and take a big family trip every year. The Lee family are also pet owners as they have 2 dogs named Scarlet and Berkley. They are indoor/outdoor dogs and are very friendly and playful. Emily is a special education teacher with about 12 years of experience and Sam is an engineering technician. The couple has fulfilled all training and adoption requirements in accordance with the state of Mississippi and Catholic Charities. Together, the two are described by their peers as loving, patient, dependable, consistent, and trustworthy.

 Samuel and Emily will consider 1 child, preferably female, Asian, Biracial, Caucasian, Hispanic, or Native American between the ages of 0-6 years with any of the following special needs: 

ADHD, Adjustment Disorder, Anxiety, and Emotional/Moderate.
