Family is at the core of who we are. Jessica comes from a large family of six kids, and even though many of them live outside Arizona, they remain incredibly close. We talk with them daily or weekly, travel to see them several times a year, and gather at least once annually as a whole group. Holidays with Jessica’s family are magical — filled with laughter, games, traditions, and intentional celebrations.
Tony’s family lives in the Phoenix valley, and we get to see them often — which we love. His family has their own set of incredible traditions: including Sunday dinners and weekend trips to explore new towns in Arizona. His parents are the kind of people who make their home a refuge for anyone who needs one. They love to travel and give their grandkids new experiences and adventures.
Both our families are excited and deeply supportive of our adoption journey. They have walked with us through our fertility struggles, prayed with us, cried with us, and celebrated this next step with so much love. Jessica has wanted to adopt since childhood, and seeing this dream becoming reality has been incredibly meaningful to her parents, who have witnessed that desire grow since she was little.
This child will be welcomed into a big, warm, devoted family overflowing with love.
