      <image:title>About Us</image:title>
      <image:caption>Thank you for taking the time to learn more about us! We’ve always planned to grow our family through adoption, as we’ve both worked professionally with the adoption community. Our friends and families couldn’t be more excited about our decision to adopt, and we can’t wait to welcome a child into our hearts through adoption! Should you choose our family for an adoption plan, we will provide a safe and loving home. We would love to share photos, letters, and updates, if that is something you are interested in. We plan to be open with a child about their adoption and the love their birth parent(s) provided in choosing an adoption plan.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Our Family - Summer: We love the water in summer; sprinklers, beaches, lakes. It’s also a special time because our niece and nephew come for summer camp at the New York zoos. We can’t wait until a child is old enough to join in zoo camp fun.</image:title>
      <image:caption>One way we like to enjoy the water in summer is to kayak!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Our Family - Spring: We celebrate Norooz (Persian New Year) with Az’s father’s family, followed by Passover with Az’s mother’s family. We also love to go for walks in the springtime rain.</image:title>
      <image:caption>We’ve learned the ducks always come out during the springtime rain!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Our Family - Winter: We enjoy decorating our Christmas tree, baking cookies for our neighbors, and building gingerbread houses with our families. Steph has taught Az to snowshoe and we love to go out into the park with a thermos of hot cocoa at the first snow of the year!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Porsche likes to help decorate our tree but usually just gets wrapped up in lights!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Our Family - Fall: Thanksgiving is our favorite holiday. We host a large potluck celebration and everyone is invited! The more, the merrier!</image:title>
      <image:caption>2019 Thanksgiving Potluck - we had moved 2 weeks before, but that didn’t stop us from hosting!</image:caption>
