Our Cultural Heritage
We’re both passionate about Latino culture and committed to honoring it in our home. Laney, though white, fell in love with the Spanish language in high school and went on to study abroad in Mexico and teach in Nicaragua. She wishes she’d been raised bilingual and is passionate about providing that opportunity to our child. Rhett’s dad is Mexican, and while Rhett wasn’t raised speaking Spanish, he’s now proudly reconnecting with his heritage, learning the language, joining a Latino network at his work, and perfecting his Tía’s tortilla recipe. Every year, we host a Día de los Muertos celebration with both sides of our family to honor loved ones through food, storytelling, and remembrance. We are excited to incorporate your child’s heritage into our family traditions and celebrate what makes them beautifully unique.
