Greg and Denise are hopeful adoptive parents waiting to adopt a baby. We would like to begin by stating that we are both ecstatic regarding the prospect of becoming adding another to our family someday soon. We want to give a happy home, an extended family, and love to your child.
If you are pregnant and considering placing your child for adoption, please read our Birth Parent Letter and family profile.
Dear Birthparent:
We would like to begin by expressing our true admiration for you and our desire is to help this difficult decision you are facing be an easier one. We want you to know what a special person we think you are for considering adoption and hope that God’s plan for your child includes us. This is a very exciting time for our family and we want to welcome you into our hearts and lives. This letter and photo album is just a short, brief glimpse into our lives, but we hope to show you how much love and dedication we have to offer your child.
About us
We met each other on a blind date almost ten years ago and it was truly “love at first sight.” We have built our relationship on love, trust, and most of all friendship.
We are best friends and love being parents. Today we live in beautiful Southern New Hampshire and are near Denise’s large family. We love New England and enjoy all of the seasons: Fall with vibrant colors on the trees, snow in the winter for Christmas, flowers blossoming in the spring, and warm summers at the beach.
Our home is right on the Massachusetts border, about 20 minutes from Denise’s mother and 30 minutes from her sister. Greg’s job allows him to work from home most of the time and commuting is usually a “walk downstairs”. It’s on a cul-de-sac where a child can ride a bike in safety and has a long driveway that is just waiting for a little red wagon to be pulled down it. There is also a large back yard (good for soccer balls or footballs) and an above ground pool. The home is about 45 minutes from Boston so we can easily enjoy a taste of the city whenever we want. Our new neighborhood is full of young children, and we cannot wait to add one more!
A little about Greg
Greg is employed as a marketing manager and has a flexible schedule with many days off each month; perfect for meeting the demands of fatherhood. Often he works from his home office and therefore is never late for dinner! Greg’s favorite activities include: “Daddy time” with the boys, reading, traveling, snow skiing, gardening, and date nights with Denise.
A little about Denise
Denise now works full time as a “stay at home mom” now that we have adopted Anthony and Phillip. Her favorite activities are cooking, traveling, shopping, collecting Longaberger baskets, and date nights with Greg. Denise loves children and started her career as a nanny before working in retail management.
Anthony & Phillip, our boys
We have two little boys, Anthony (four) and Phillip (three). Anthony is adventurous and energetic, and Phillip loves to laugh and smile. They are a team whether they are riding bikes on the driveway, playing on the swings, or playing ball with Daddy. Both Denise and Greg have siblings who are close to them in age and we hope that we can find them a little sister soon.
Things We Love To Do Together
We’re an adventurous couple who love to experience life but enjoy spending time with family the most. We have been so fortunate to go on many trips overseas, including Tahiti, Australia, and throughout Europe. However, now that we are parents our vacations are visits to the grandparents. We also never miss a chance to attend a dance recital for one of the nieces or a Little League or soccer game with a nephew, and can’t wait to do the same for our own children.
Our Families & Friends
We are proud to say that both of our families are very supportive of our decision to adopt Anthony and Phillip and are excited about the possibility of another “new addition” to the family.
Holidays are always spent with family and friends. Every spring we have a giant Easter egg hunt at Nana’s house (she has the biggest yard) and enjoy a traditional Easter Italian feast. The Fourth of July is extra special in New England. We celebrate at a family beach house with a BBQ and the kids get to stay up late to watch the fireworks over the harbor. Labor Day marks the end of summer with another party at Greg’s parents’ lake house and it kicks off the start of college football season. Falls are busy too – often at Thanksgiving we have over 30 people eating, and one table just for kids! Christmas is our favorite because Santa always makes an appearance (after eating his milk and cookies left the night before). The little kids are up early in their matching Christmas pajamas to see what treasures were left for them.
We would love to hear from you. Until then please take care of yourself and know our thoughts and prayers are with you and your baby.
With warmest regards,
Greg and Denise
