Hello!

I have known Shari since we started working together nearly eight years ago, and Lisa for seven years.  Shari and Lisa function separately and together based on a well-defined core set of values and these values define their integrity.  Values I have observed in both Shari and Lisa include honesty, courage, compassion and humor.

Shari and Lisa have a wide network of supportive friends.  I count myself among this lucky group of people.  Their integrity is something that we have probably all learned to take for granted because it is an inherent and natural part of every decision and action they make. 

They both have the ability and commitment to be exceptional parents.  Becoming parents is something they have considered for a long time.  They made certain that they built a strong foundation for family; one that is tried and true.  They did this by insuring that their commitment to each other is strong, that they both have similar desires and goals about raising a family, that they have a supportive network of family and friends and that they have the financial resources to offer a child many advantages. 

In addition, Shari and Lisa are loving, compassionate and fun people who want to share all aspects of their lives with a child!  I have had many opportunities to observe them with children, and they are clearly in their element.  They are great with kids, and I know they will make exceptional parents.

Sincerely, Melinda
