We are a happily married couple in our early thirties that would like to adopt an infant boy or girl.  We will adopt infant twins and triplets as well.
Mothers seeking adoptive parents please call us so we can help.

We have completed our home study with Angel Guardian in Brooklyn New York.

We will give our love, guidance and security to your baby.  We will do our best to meet his or her emotional, physical, spiritual and educational needs.

I was born in 1968 in Brooklyn I lived here all my life. I come from a middle class family. Both of my parents come from Italy. They came here to have a better life for themselves. They worked hard, and were and are loving people. My mom is a homemaker; my dad was a longshoreman and is now retired. I’ve always been surrounded by family and friends. I was an only child for twelve years, until my sister was born in 1980. Even though we’re twelve years apart we’re very close.

My school years were good; I had lots of friends which made school fun. I met my husband when my family and I moved from our previous home. We’re very happy together and we’re very much in love. The only problem we’ve ever really had was trying to have children. But this has brought us closer as a couple.

I enjoy being with family and friends listening to music, reading, and watching television. Both of our families get along very well. So bringing a child into our home would just add to our happy home. We’re a very loving family. My husband and I feel that adopting would allow us to accomplish our goal to expand our family, while at the same time giving a child an opportunity to maybe have a better life.

There’s only one thing I would ever change in my life that would be to look into adoption sooner. We would love any child that came into our life like our own. The child would be brought up knowing he or she is very much loved.

   I was born in Brooklyn, New York to Frank and Alice DeRosa on October 23, 1970.  My parents were in there early twenties when they had me.  They were both born in Brooklyn as well as grew up here too.  My father has been in brokerage since I was born.  My mother started working in a bank and then left work to take care of me.

I have two brothers that came five and six years later than me.  My brother Adam was born on May 10, 1975 and my brother Todd was born on May 16, 1976.  I’ve been close with my brothers my whole life and even closer after I was married.

School has always been fun for me and actually pretty easy.  I went through public school my whole life and religious instructions.  Grades one through six were pretty normal.  Junior High School, which is from grades seven to nine were much more interested and challenging.  I was more independent and made a lot of friends.  High School which started at tenth grade to twelfth were even better.  My High School was very different, it was an experimental school; acting almost like a college in the personal freedom that was given.  I was able to excel and make a lot of friends and have many interesting experiences.  We were able to decide which classes we wanted and when to take them.  There were also a lot of extra curricular activities that I took part in during and after school.  High School was where I started preparing for the future.

My first job was an internship that I received from one of the courses in high school.  I worked in a Morgan Stanley in the Dividend Department.  I started doing routine work and then I started setting up computers and computer systems for them.  I really enjoyed the work which made the experience great.

My last year in High School was great, the work was harder but I had more free time because I took so many extra classes before senior year.  I then got a job after school and on the weekends at a local computer store.  It was pretty hard balancing school and work.  My schedule was school from 8am to 1:30pm, work from 2pm to 9pm during the week.  I also worked all day Saturday and Sunday and went out with my friends on Friday and Saturday nights.  I also had an advanced class that I took at Baruch College one day a week for a semester.

After graduation I worked the rest of the summer and then headed off to college.  I went to Stony Brook in Long Island so I had to live on campus.  It was a lot different than being at home, and I had a hard time adjusting.  The classes were much harder and much bigger; it was hard to learn anything at all.  I didn’t do very well even though I studied for hours at a time.  Also, being on campus with many people my age partying all the time was hard to resist.  After a year of up and down grades I came back home and went to Kingsborough Community College for one year.  I had an easier time but was not exactly happy with my college career.  I went to St. Francis for the next semester and than just worked full time as a Data Entry Specialist for Morgan Stanley.  I also did some volunteer work at the Methodist Hospital in Brooklyn.  I quit my job at Morgan Stanley and took some time to figure out what I wanted to do; this is when I met my wife.

My wife to be lived on my block since 1986 and I only really met her two or three times.  I was so busy at school and work, I didn’t see too much of my friends on my block.  We were both part of one circle of friends that started to get together every night and weekend to hang out or go to the movies or clubs.  My wife wound up asking me out on a night we all went out, that’s how it started.  We became a couple in October of 1990.  It was great because we were on the same block and were able to see each other whenever we wanted.

I knew after going out with Vera for only three months that I loved her.  We did everything together, even our families got along.  We still hung out with our friends but started to pull away more to be by ourselves.

At this point I needed to get a job so I started work at a catering firm in Long Island City.  I started as a counter/delivery guy and after a couple of years was one of the primary managers.  We opened a restaurant in the city and closed the shop in Queens.  We were still able to continue all the catering from the restaurant so the business grew.  I also computerized everything including doing all the in-house design and publishing as well as the payroll and the books.

After two years of going out I decided to pop the question.  Her parents insisted I do it in front of them so the next night I brought the ring to her house and waited for the right time.  I had no clue how I was going to do it with her parent’s right there.  After dinner her mother put out coffee and cake while her and her husband waited for me to say something.  I waited for Vera to leave the room and put the ring in her cake.  She came back in and immediately saw the ring and started crying.  I got on my knee and asked her to marry me, the answer was yes.  Her father was in the bathroom during the whole event.  We were married in September 1993.

I then decided to get a full time computer related job.  I started in the Help Desk at Dean Witter in 1994 but was so unhappy because even though the work was educational and pretty easy the company was not right for me.  I eventually went back to the restaurant for a couple of months.  Then I started working for ILX Systems as a network engineer.  I learned a lot of networking skills that I have now mastered.  I also worked at the restaurant in the mornings to do payroll and anything on the computer.  I stayed at ILX for 4 years and then started my present job at EurekaGGN.

            My wife and I were so in love that the years flew.  During the time I worked at ILX we had a great life where we spent a lot of time together living in the apartment above her parents.  It was easy, I had a regular eight hour a day job with basically no stress or worries about work.

            I work for an Internet startup for the last two years that has a lot more stress and takes up a lot more time.  Vera has been able to take on almost all the responsibilities at home since work has kept me so busy.  I’ve tried to separate the two lately so we can spend more time together.  Work has gotten easier and can be done from home which I do a couple of days each month.  I don’t think it would interfere with children at this point.

            Right from the beginning we tried to have children.  We were both upset at the end of every month and no sign of a baby.  We stayed strong and maintained that one day it would happen.  We saw many doctors to try and figure out the problem.  Both of us have had some type of fertility surgery but with little or no results.  Thank God our love for each other is able to get us through the years of disappointment.  We always said that we would adopt if we couldn’t have children.  So even though we are still trying to conceive we feel that it is the right time to start the adoption process.

            We feel we have a lot to offer a baby and would like a chance to raise a child.  Vera is so good with children, loving and patient.  She knows that it takes a lot of love to raise a child so it grows up with all of life’s benefits.  I don’t have as much patients but have a lot of love to give.  Both of us would give it our all in raising a child, our own or adopted.
