We are a blended family composed of my husband, his two children from his first marriage, 23 and 20 years old, our son in common, [name], 5. (almost 6) years old, and me. And we didn't leave out our beloved dog, Ozzy, an extremely affectionate Weimaraner.

My husband is french and born in France. I'm french, italian & argentinian and I born and grew

in Argentina. L (23), half french half brazilian, he was born in Germany. C (20) half french half brazilian, he was born in Spain. [name] (5), he's french, argentinian and italian and he was born in Singapore. And Ozzy, he was born in Australia and travelled all the way with us.

We came to live in the United States 4 years ago and plan to stay here for a long time. We love it! We travel as a family 1 or 2 times a year to see our relatives in different countries (Argentina, France and Belgium).

As we love to travel together and we have friends in several countries, we always take the opportunity to travel to some country to see them and share fun time together.

Both my husband and I are aeronautical engineers. My husband now works in Finance and I continue to work with airplanes. I wanted to be an astronaut when I was a kid and when I grew up!!!!

I consider myself the most blessed person in the world the day I found out I was pregnant with [name], it was through IVF, while we were living in Singapore.

We love having a big family, but unfortunately, after many treatments and many painful times and medical situations, we were not able to have a second child.

Hope is the last thing to be lost, we are still dreaming of new children and our son is constantly asking when his little brothers and sisters will arrive.

We did not know this path and when the doctor recommended it, we saw a light at the end of the tunnel. We are anxious and expectant.

We bought a 2 story house with 6 bedrooms, garden, swimming pool and a lot of love. We have enough space for the new baby(s) and for the family when they come to visit us. We live in a very residential town, full of parks, playgrounds, etc. We are surrounded by the best schools in the state at all age levels.

My husband and I work from home and sometimes we have to travel. We are pretty well organized in our schedules so that family and household things work while one of us is away.

We love the Christmas season. With our son we always decorate the Christmas tree together and prepare the letter to Santa Claus.

On Sunday mornings, our son and I go to church, a beautiful Christian church that has a very welcoming place for children of all ages.

In conclusion, we enjoy the simple things in life, we value time with family and friends. We enjoy every trip when we can, we love to cook with our family, play sports, play, paint and eat! We like healthy and homemade food.

We have a lot of love and space in our hearts for the new baby(s) to come. We have been waiting for them for many years. And not only us but also grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins

etc....

Thank you for trusting us with your most precious gift!
