Interracial Family
Their children may not be related by blood but they are proud to call them their kids. Aaron and Rachel adore the beauty of a mixed-race family. “The beauty of a multi-ethnic family is found there, in the fact that the differences are the very thing that makes ours richer and fuller. It forces you to think in a new way about the way you think, speak, act and live,” Aaron e, “There is something beautiful and enriching being the only white face sitting and chatting with some of my African-American friends as my son gets his hair cut on a Saturday morning.”
Overwhelming Support
The family received an outpouring of support. Aaron said, “It’s been heartening to see virtually all of our friends and family express overwhelming support for our family and the unusual ways we’ve built it.” Rachel and Aaron were also happy they completed their mission. He said, “In our minds, we are just living out our dream. A dream that may not look like the average family, but one that we are thankful could come true in light of our country’s history.”
