Sarah came to us, through adoption, just five short years ago. Parenting her has truly been a joy, enriching our lives far beyond our expectations. As any child can, she has brought love, humor, laughter and wonderful challenges. The three of us are all incredibly excited about the prospect of growing our family. We live in a small village outside Chicago, in a beautiful old neighborhood with lots of trees and many parks.
Children are everywhere and the community has a great spirit.
Our four-bedroom home is on a large lot. The fenced back yard, family room and large basement always seems to be filled with friends dressing up or creating fantasy worlds. We married in 1985 after a short but exciting courtship and have a great relationship. We both were in our thirties when we met while Janis was vacationing in Chicago. After several years of trying to conceive we looked at adoption in order to grow our family.
