Dear Expectant Mother,
We are Phil & Filip (yes, we do have the same name)! We have been together for 15 years and have built a strong relationship based on love, trust, humor, and kindness. We have been blessed with stable careers, loving families, and our adopted son, but we are longing to find the final piece of our family. We admire you for making this difficult decision. We promise you that your child will be welcomed by two caring parents and an adoring big brother (who’s been asking for a sibling :-)
We are a multicultural family. Our children will grow up with Portuguese, Spanish, English and Serbian spoken in our home, learning about each of those cultures. We’ll share home-cooked meals in between regular playtime outdoors in our diverse and family-oriented neighborhood of Redwood City, a Silicon Valley town 30 miles south of San Francisco. We have been blessed with stable jobs in science and engineering, and Filip is excited to take a year off from work to be a stay-at-home dad. We are committed to creating a nurturing environment and providing opportunities so that our child can grow, and explore his or her interests fully.
