Hello! Thank you for taking the time to view our profile and learn a little about our family. We are very excited for the opportunity to share this parenthood journey with you! We sympathize with you as you navigate this difficult decision based on your love for your child. We hope to convey to you the love we share and the love we have to offer for your child. We are ecstatic for the chance to welcome your child into our home and to foster a life long relationship with you.
We met in college during the Fall of 2005. Dana’s sorority and Eric’s fraternity hosted Homecoming together that year and we met during the planning process and started dating soon after.
We married in July 2009 surrounded by friends and family. During our journey to parenthood, we underwent several
unsuccessful fertility treatments. We remain committed to our dreams of being parents, and have excitedly changed our focus to adoption! We enjoy traveling and random trips to the beach or lake. We enjoy trying new foods. music, and the theatre.
ABOUT DANA (IN ERIC’S WORDS)
Dana has a huge heart. She provides a warm, nurturing and caring home. She motivates those around her to achieve their goals and is their biggest cheerleader the entire time. When Dana makes a commitment, there is no turning back. Her rationality and steadfast nature make her the backbone of our family.
She also enjoy to kick back and relax from time to time and laugh with family and
friends.
She loves cooking and trying new types of cuisine but never follows a recipe and seasons with the heart.
She enjoys traveling whether it is as a couple, with family, or friends for a vacation, the adventure spirit awaits her!
She loves to read and enjoys a well written antagonist novel. She also enjoys all types of live music.
ABOUT ERIC (IN DANA’S WORDS)
Eric loves education and learning new things. He constantly surprises me with what he can do and what he knows about something. His passion for history is unmatched and he enjoys sharing it with his
students.
Eric has both a very loving and a protective quality about himself.
He is the type that is willing to do anything for family and friends.
He loves the outdoors (He is an Eagle Scout and a part-time Park Ranger) and enjoys camping, hiking, backpacking, skiing, and Scuba Diving.
He is very handy around the house and does lots of DIY Projects. He enjoys working in the yard and working on his Jeep.
He is as avid of a reader and watcher of films.
We built our townhome in August 2015 and now want to turn this house into a home. Our neighborhood has lots of parks, green space, shops, and playgrounds. We live in one of the top school systems in the country (which Eric works for) and Dana is a preschool administrator in the community.
We live only 30 miles from our nation’s capital, Washington, DC. Eric’s parents live a short drive away from us and we regularly visit Dana’s family in Pennsylvania and New Jersey and Eric’s brother in Pennsylvania.
Thank you. We are elated for the opportunity to become parents!
Our commitment to you is to encourage your child to live out their dreams and embrace their individuality. Our home will be one filled with love, a passion for self-expression and learning, good food, and random nature adventures. We hope to form a partnership with you to provide your child with all the love and support they need!
Thank you for taking the time to learn about us as you consider adoption!
