Hi from Michele and Jeff

Family is important to us.

We both come from very close knit families, and, after we got married, we started the tradition of coming together as one family for many holidays and celebrations. Everyone is excited and supportive about our adoption plans. Our parents have all promised babysitting! Jeff's parents, Monica and Perry, are eagerly awaiting their first grandchild. Erica and Frankie (Jeff's sister and her fiance) and Renee, his other sister, are already planning on spoiling their niece or nephew.

 We spend lots of time with Michele's sister, Carolyn, her husband Mike and our nieces, Alexandra and Eleni, who bring us a ton of joy. They have a playroom full of toys they can't wait to share with a new cousin. (really, they said so!). Michele's mom, Diane, loves being a grandma. She is looking forward to another grandchild. Sadly, Michele's Dad passed away; he would have loved to have known his grandchild

Tigger!

Another important member of our family is our cat Tigger (he used to 'bounce' when he was a kitten. Tigger can often be found sunning himself on the patio. He also loves to 'steal' our ice cream when we're not looking!

Tigger is playful and endlessly patient. He loves it when we scratch his tummy! He is very gentle and children of all ages  love him.

Tigger takes nap time very seriously!
