Our Family and Hearts are Growing



We are overjoyed to announce the near arrival of our son from Ethiopia:

Nicco Ravera

We will be traveling mid February to bring him home! Lucca (almost 3 years old) continues to fill our lives with joy and happiness. We thank everyone for your thoughts, prayers, and support as we continue our journey to grow our family.
