Hello,

We are Jon and Sami. Thank you for taking a look at our profile. We are honored you are considering us to be part of your child’s life. We admire your strength and love in making this choice.

We have been together since 2014 and married since 2018. We adopted our son Mill in February 2024.

Our days are filled with love, art, music, laughter, travel, traditions, and more. We enjoy exploring parks and museums with our son, cooking big meals, and spending time with our family in New York City where we live.

Becoming parents was the best thing that ever happened to us and we are so excited to welcome a second child into our family! Our son can’t wait to become a big brother!

Fun facts about Jon and Sami:

Favorite places: We have a summer tradition: one week at a lake house in upstate New York and another week at a beach house at the Jersey shore! Throughout the year, we love visiting Philadelphia where we used to live and where our son was born.

Favorite foods: Every Wednesday we have a big family dinner where all our relatives in New York City get together for a meal at our house. We take turns on who cooks the dinner, but our favorite is chili and cornbread (or take out Chinese when we are all too tired to cook!)

Favorite hobbies: Jon works at a museum. One perk is that we get into every other museum in New York City for free! When we aren’t visiting museums, we love to spend time with our son at swim lessons and gymnastics classes. On lazy Sundays, we like to go to a neighborhood park, lay out a picnic blanket, and read.

Favorite holidays: Sami enjoys cooking Thanksgiving dinner, and Jon loves a big traditional family Christmas!
