open adoption website of Shari and Craig for birthmothers seeking open adoption

		Our Story We have both known we wanted to be parents for a long time. Craig has collected children’s books from different countries and he’s eager to share them with our child. Kids are drawn to Shari because they love how she gets down on the floor and plays with them – inventing little games or rolling around in tickling matches. We have a happy, loving, committed marriage and enjoy spending time together on everything from cooking to dancing! We met one Friday evening in May 2002 at the synagogue where we both attend. An old friend of Shari’s mom pushed her into Craig’s path and he spent the next ten minutes apologizing for the way they had been thrust together…until he noticed she was cute! Soon we realized how much we had in common and even discovered that our birthdays are just one day apart. We were married two years later at a very festive wedding – lots of music and dancing –with 150 friends and family who came from near and far to celebrate with us.
