With Enzo fully initiated into our loving family, Tony was able to meet his little brother the morning following his birth. Nicole and I were a little worried at first because you never know how a two-year-old will react to the idea of sharing anything, let alone his parents, with someone else. Well, let’s just say we were more than thrilled with his reaction.

Tony welcomed Enzo with open arms the minute he walked into the mother-baby room at the hospital. He gave him kisses, a hug and even a couple of presents. Enzo reciprocated and the two began to form their brotherly bond that I am so lucky to have with my brother, Chris.

For those of you who know me, I am Italian through and through. I eat, sleep and breathe my Italian heritage. So, when my wife and I started the discussion of having children, we traded ideas for names for both boys and girls. And, no surprise to our family, all of them were steeped in Italian culture. It wasn’t difficult to come to an agreement on the names as we have been together for more than 11 years now.

Our story began on July 1, 2003. Not long after our junior year in high school Nicole and I began to date. Our engagement began on December 18, 2008 and we were married on June 26, 2010. Then, on March 22, 2012, our lives were changed for the better when Anthony Giovanni came into the world.
