Dennis & Rosanna

Meet Dennis:

I live by the values of kindness, creativity, and family, which guide every aspect of my life. I am an Animation Technical Supervisor who blends technical expertise with artistic creativity in my work. Outside of work, I love playing the guitar, experimenting with new cooking recipes, and exploring the outdoors on my dirt bike. Sushi is my favorite food, and I’m a big fan of The Black Keys and Taylor Swift. Being a father is one of my greatest joys, and I can’t wait to welcome another child into our family. I cherish every moment with my loved ones, from reading "Frog and Toad" to our daughter to cheering for the Pittsburgh Steelers. For me, family is everything, and I strive to create a loving, supportive environment where we all can grow and thrive together!

Meet Rosanna:

I hold community, family, and continuous learning in high regard, and these values shape everything I do.

I am overjoyed at the thought of becoming a mother again, as I treasure the moments spent with my daughter and look forward to creating new memories together as a family of four. I can’t wait to read "A Wrinkle in Time" and watch “Curious George" with a little one. And I am excited to share many experiences and foster a loving, supportive environment where a children can flourish and be all that they can be. Family means everything to me, and I am committed to providing unwavering love and support to help my children grow into happy, confident individuals.

Our Home:

We love our house because it is filled with love, and we eagerly anticipate the day a child will call it home. We look forward to family walks to the nearby park, playing in our spacious backyard, and sharing cozy days playing games like "Floor is Lava" from one room to another. We can't wait for movie nights cuddled up with take-out and popcorn, playing badminton outside, creating chalk drawings on the driveway, doing art projects, and playing chase with the dogs. Our neighborhood is wonderful, with friendly neighbors and close to fantastic parks, a kid-friendly outdoor mall with activities and a trolley, and great restaurants. We're just a short drive from mountains, the beach, museums, and Disneyland. Plus, we have excellent schools nearby! We are also thrilled that a child will have the chance to experience our beautiful vacation homes in the desert and the mountains. No matter where we are, as long as we are together as a family, we will be at home!

Thoughts on Parenting:

We will prioritize teaching our children to embody the qualities of a scientist, explorer, activist, artist, and kind human being, encouraging them to view the world with wonder and empathy. Education is important to us, and we will ensure that our children are always enrolled in schools that value diversity, inclusion, and social-emotional learning, ensuring our children are not only intellectually prepared for college but also emotionally ready to handle all of life's challenges. In our home, respect, inclusion, kindness, and compassion are not just taught but lived daily. We will nurture each child’s individual passions, whether it's science, art, or any interest they wish to explore, supporting their growth with both knowledge and resources. Our ultimate goal is for our children to see themselves as capable, curious, and connected to friends and family, so they can achieve their dreams!

In Closing:

We promise we will be grateful for you and cherish every single day! Your child will grow up knowing about your profound love for them. We promise to maintain your desired level of openness and we will always respect your wishes. We commit to giving your child a stable, safe home filled with educational opportunities and unconditional love. They will always feel supported in everything they do and at every step of their journey. We will be their constant support, offering unconditional love at every turn. Thank you so much for considering us as parents and taking the time to learn about our family. We know that whatever decision you make will be a beautiful one for both you and your child, and we send you all our love and peace as you make this decision.
