How others describe me

Edward is a caring, thoughtful, and very giving person. All of these characteristics have made him an amazing uncle and future father. He is fun and goofy, and enjoys playtime with our nieces and nephews or teaching them to bake dozens of holiday cookies. His laid-back yet silly personality makes others feel welcome. Most of all, Ed is dedicated to family, wanting to make sure every moment is cherished: he is our holiday host! 

Ed works in property management for a Homeowners Association. His job allows him a flexible work schedule – Ed is a night owl, which will be perfect for late-night feeding or when the child is scared of the monster under the bed. 

Ed was born on Long Island, New York the eldest of two children. Growing up, Ed emulated his dad and mom.  His father taught him how to use tools and always allowed him to help him fix things around the house. Through him, Ed became confident and capable and learned how to tackle projects competently and safely. Ed’s mother taught him everything she knew in the kitchen. Through her, Ed's love for cooking was born. She was his inspiration to go to the French Culinary Institute and train to be a chef. Both of his parents made him who he is today, a family-oriented guy who loves spending time building things, cooking, and gardening.  Ed can't wait for the day that he can guide and instill these values into our child.

Gerald is smart, giving, and one of the most loving people I know. With his experience in higher education, he has an uncanny way of making children feel at ease. 

Gerald was born in a small town in Upstate New York the youngest of four kids. While his family is close, Gerald always aspired to more than a small-town life. After High School, Gerald left home to pursue his bachelor’s degree. Gerald is passionate about education – holding a master’s degree in higher education and Ed.D degree in education.  Although he moved to another small town, the experience opened his eyes to a whole new world. And though he went to college for culinary arts, he found his real calling working in higher education administration and now Human Resources – his job allows him to work from home and have a flexible work schedule. 

Gerald loves reading, running, art, outdoor advantages, the beach, and spending quality time with Ed and our two French bulldogs, Diego and Parker.  Gerald cherishes the idea of sharing these values with his child and can't wait for the day that he can see it through.

As a future father, he will make sure our children have every opportunity to reach for the stars.
