We are Michelle and Eric. Michelle is 35 and works as a high school Special Education Teacher. She is the youngest of five girls, has six nieces, a nephew, as well as a few great nieces and nephews. Michelle and Eric get to see them often and enjoy playing and taking care of them. Eric is 30 and works as a cook in a local restaurant. He has one older sister and many cousins.

We were married in 2004. Unlike many other couples who consider adoption after struggling with infertility, we knew from the beginning that for our family to have to grow it would be through adoption. When Michelle was 21 she got sick and as a result of that illness she is unable to conceive or carry a child. Eric knew all about her illness because when the relationship began to get serious we talked about how he felt about it.
During our time away from work we love to spend time with our family and friends. We also have many interests from reading, playing games, working in the yard, traveling and playing with out two dongs.
