Other Info:
We are a loving, queer couple who has been together for over a decade. We were both once middle school teachers, but now have moved onto other professional pursuits. We are part of a large, loving family that is respectful, boisterous, and kind. We love to be silly, are observant Jews, and try to make the world a better place. My wife and I have spent six years being foster and adoptive parents, and parenting other people's children. Our kids are amazing, and I didn't think of having bio kids until it became clear a few years ago that no one in our generation (my siblings or my cousins) will be having biological children. My grandparents survived the Holocaust, and on my grandfather's deathbed, looking over his family, he said, "You know how I know we defeated the Natzis?* You're here." I want to continue my grandparents' legacy and have a bio kiddo. We are looking for someone who is okay with us sharing info about them to the kiddo, but doesn't want to be in their life. We have spent a lot of hard years co-parenting with the state and biological parents, and we're exhausted from parental contact. *This app won't let me use the original spell. Which, I appreciate, but also I need the word for the story. So you get a funky spelling.
