A Little About Bobbie
I grew up in New York and I feel that my parents did a wonderful job raising me. I grew up as an only child and while I did have many friends, I always knew that I wanted a big family. I never felt like I wasn't their child or was lacking something because I was adopted. After college I worked as a stage manager for awhile. I think I'd like to go back to school at some point but I haven't decided yet what I want to study. I am a stay-at-home mom and I feel very lucky that I can be around my child so much. I love the performing and visual arts and Josh just saw his first play (he made me very happy when he told me that he wanted to see the other plays). I also enjoy traveling, reading and knitting.

Since my parents are in New York and I don't have siblings I wanted to create my own 'extended' family. Close to three years ago I started a babysitting coop in my neighborhood. We have gotten to know a wonderful bunch of families and we all help each other watch the kids. While I am Jewish, I am not very religious. Josh attended a Jewish preschool because I wanted him to be introduced to the culture, wonderful songs, foods and holidays. Some of the parents of Josh's friends have become our close friends. We just had a fun 2 day sleepover in Santa Cruz with another family. I thought Lindsay and Andrew would be bored hanging around the little ones but we all had a wonderful time.
