Welcome Lina Teresa!

As some of you know, our close friends John and Susan have been on an adoption journey for quite some time. There were many ups and downs and almosts, but yesterday that all came to a beautiful end when they brought home Lina Teresa.




She was born on June 12 and is a happy, healthy baby girl of Puerto Rican and Italian descent. In addition to being adorable, she's very chill — needless to say, we weren't there for any middle of the night feedings.

We did get to enjoy an impromptu celebratory dinner with the Decostanzas and Susan's parents, Phyllis and Andy. We are so excited that Miss Lina has arrived!
