Waiting families

Zackeriah + Jasmin

Hello, we are Zackeriah and Jasmin Martinez. 

“As parents through adoption, we will forever know there are no sufficient words, and there will never be anything we could give that would be as meaningful as the life you created and chose to share with us.” – Oscar Wilde. 

“Love: A deep feeling of connection, comfort, and belonging found in shared laughter, quiet moments, and the choice to show up every single day. It’s feeling safe, understood, and truly at home with another person, no matter where life takes you.”- Unknown 

We have been married for 7 years and together for 12 years. We have traveled the world together, from Japan to Europe, and made our final home in Wyoming. Zack served in the Air Force as an Electrician for over 8 years, then retired, and now works as a service technician for Schneider Electric. Ensuring every critical building that needs emergency power has it. Jasmin loves to bake delicious goods and crochet amazing stuffies that can be cuddled with and blankets that can help keep anybody warm during the cold winter months. 

Jasmin was born and raised in Stockton, California, while Zack was raised in Peyton, Colorado. We first met at Jasmin’s cousin’s sweet 16th birthday party. It was a dance party, and I had asked Jasmin to dance with me. After several dances and talking the night away, we exchanged Facebook information. Jasmin had to go back to California while I stayed in Colorado. We spent the next 5 years calling, texting, and even writing letters to each other. In those 5 years, we had only seen each other a total of 3 times due to us living in different states. A year after we had both graduated, Zack proposed. After 4 months of engagement, we were married, and our grand adventure began. Through our adventure in Japan and Italy, we have met amazing people and made wonderful memories, and we hope to one day tell and show countless pictures. 

We have always wanted our family to grow, and it has always been our dream and wish to be parents. We are parents to four beautiful, amazing fur babies (cats), and their names are Lance, Peter, Violet, and Kida. Yes, they are all named after Disney characters. Unfortunately, we were given the news that we are not able to conceive a child of our own. That is why we are excited to be able to have this opportunity to adopt and grow our family even more.

If you give us the amazing opportunity to adopt your child, we promise and assure you that the child will always be loved and taken care of with plenty of room for the child to grow and be their own person, for we will always be by their side. We also promise for them to be a kid and not have to worry about life, visit family as often as possible, have grand adventures, and share our wisdom and stories. However, the most important of them all is to always love and cherish them forever, even longer than time itself.

Our wish is that your child finds the home and family that is meant for them. Thank you for taking the time to read our little story. Thank you for considering us as part of your journey.
