Robert would like to thank:

Thanks to my grandchildren Julian, Cameron,

Jack, Holden, Jamie, and Connor (in order of age,

of course!), who inspire me every day.

Jeff would like to thank:

Thank you first and foremost to my family:

My putative father/law partner Robert Kasky and

my mother Nancy Kasky, without whom I literally

wouldn’t be here; my sister Jill, who to this day

still insists that she is an only child, and Michael,

Jack, and Jamie; my children Julian, Cameron,

Holden, and Connor, the coolest kids on earth and

the reason I will enjoy helping people for the rest

of my natural life, and possibly then some; and my

awesome fiancée Jeannette, who is simply the most

patient person I know.

Thank you to Margaret T. Snider, MSW, the

one and only Executive Director One World Adop-

tion Services has ever had and a contributor to this

book by virtue of having been involved in every

single adoption I have ever had the honor of work-

ing on; to the team members at One World who

have supported Marge’s, my father’s, and my ef-

forts to help people for all these years, including but

not limited to Paula Ostroviesky, Estela Euceda,

Jan Zuza, Alice Kasky, Leslie Levine, Maureen

Bennett, Jessica Charbonneau, Jennifer Snyder,

Juliana Triana, Suzanne Ludwig, Trina Augello,

Roseangela Santos, Cece, Tonya, and anyone I ne-

glected to mention.

Thank you to The Autism Channel, Inc., for

bringing free quality programming to the autism

community. Thank you to Life Through Surrogacy,

Inc., run by the aforementioned Jeannette, who is

working hard every day to help people realize their

dream of becoming parents.

Thank you to all of the judges and clerks who

have supported our work by being there to do

their part.

Thank you to the editors and hard-working

publicists at the American Bar Association for

knowing there would be an audience in need of

the information we present herein.

And last but certainly not least, thank you

to all of the adoptive families who trusted us to

help them create their families, and who’ve taken

such good care of the kids we’ve entrusted to

their care!
