dear expectant mother

Dear Extraordinary Mother,

We are in awe of your courage and compassion as you make such an enormous decision. We can’t even begin to imagine what you are going through right now, and we are sending good vibes to you and your baby.

We are truly grateful for the time you have taken to learn about our family. We are so excited to welcome your beautiful child into our life. In our home, your child will be cherished, encouraged to explore new things, and enveloped in light, laughter, and love. We will fill their days with joy, nature, dance, music, and all kinds of adventures.

We want to honor the sacred role you play in your child’s life, and are open to any level of communication you feel comfortable with. We want your child to find their deepest sense of self and resiliency, which means telling them all about you, your culture, and your traditions. We would like to support you in any way that helps to connect to your child’s journey.

Please know we are honored that you are considering our family to be a part of your and your child’s incredible story. We hope you find support, love, and peace during this momentous time!

With light & love, Scott, Jenny April & Django

About Us

Hi there! We are a loving, artsy couple who enjoy all kinds of adventures. We grew up in neighboring suburbs of NYC but did not meet until one fateful summer evening in Washington, DC, in 2017. We talked, laughed, and walked the Rock Creek Trail for hours, and we have not stopped the party since. Scott is a government contractor by day and an avid musician by night who can be found rocking out on electric guitar, strumming acoustic blues, or singing Frank Sinatra. Jenny April is a holistic physical therapist, and can often be found leading workshops on women's health, studying interior design or zenning out in a yoga class. On weekends, we love to go hiking with our puppy, Django, bake delicious paleo desserts, have impromptu dance parties and guitar sing-alongs, see live performances, hang with friends and family, or just snuggle on the couch for a flick.

Our Home & Neighborhood

We live in a picturesque Maryland community nestled alongside the Potomac River, in an affluent suburb of DC. Along with being in one of the country’s top school districts, we are just a 20-minute drive from museums, cultural events, performances, and the National Zoo. Our neighborhood is woven with streams, trails, and bike paths, and we can easily walk to the residents-only pool, soccer fields, tennis courts, & playground. We also love visiting our local farmers’ markets, browsing local boutiques, and stopping by our favorite ice cream shop. Our puppy, Django, brings so much fun and affection to our home with his playful energy and endless snuggles. We cannot wait for our future child to experience the deep love of our family and the beautiful surroundings we are so lucky to call home.

Our Family & Friends

We are both New Yorkers and have family still living there as well as all across the country. Scott has two older brothers and two teenage nephews in Connecticut, whom we sometimes see for Christmas (yes, we are Jewish and celebrate Christmas!). Our visits entail soccer games, endless conversation, and delicious meals as Scott’s older brother is a professional chef!

Jenny April’s sister and her family live in Boston with our niece and their three kittens. We often have yearly trips together by the Maine seashore, filled with blissful days of lounging, epic games of Uno and paddle ball, and cartwheel tutorials from Jenny’s niece. We often spend Thanksgiving with them and Jenny April’s mom, who is still in New York. Our trips to see her include Manhattan for brunch and Broadway shows as well as late night tea and Chinese checkers.

In addition, Jenny April has wonderful cousins in northern California with whom we celebrate hysterical Passover Seders every other year. The night is filled with eating, laughter, and singing, especially the prayers, which are set to the tune of Broadway musicals. We are also fortunate to have cousins and friends living nearby and feel grateful for the love and support in our lives.

What Led Us To Adoption

The first time Jenny April heard Scott play “Wild Horses” on guitar, she thought, “This would be great for when we have kids!” This is a crazy thing to think on a second date, so she kept this to herself. Months later, we discovered our mutual desire to be parents and create a family together! Given that we met later in life, we soon found the biological route was not our path. We were inspired to adopt by two serendipitous occurrences: Jenny April was raised by an amazing woman from Belize, whom she loved as a mother. Secondly, our cousins have a biological son and adopted daughter. After hanging out with them for many Friday night Shabbat dinners, we experienced the incredible joy of their family and saw this as the path for us.
