The Odell Family
DH: Llewellyn "Lewis" Wyn Odell (45)
DW: Daphne "Daffodil" Ophelia (née Dillard) Odell (39)
DS: Apollo Berwyn Odell (15)
DD: Adair Winifred Odell (9)
DD: Astraea Isolde Odell (7)
DS: Atlas Dafydd Odell (3)
DS: Aspen Wynfor Odell (1)
Lewis and Daffodil met in high school. Daffodil was pretty, but very quiet, and had been a part of the neighborhood all of her life. Lewis was funny and always ready to try and find fun, and he'd just moved to the neighborhood the summer before. The met in English class at the beginning of their sophomore year. They were assigned to be partners on a project that was to last the first semester. Lewis started calling her Daffodil after hearing the teacher always call her "Daphne Dillard" and then finding out that her MN started with "O" (little did he know how prophetic it would be!). By the end of the project, they were close friends. By the end of the school year, there was something more developing. By the end of high school, they were engaged.

The Porter Family
DH: Randolph "Andy" Lloyd Wendell Porter VI (30)
DW: Salima Irene (née Reid) Porter (31)
DD: Evangelina Nefertiti Porter (7) "Lina"
DS: Frederick Ahmose Porter (3) "Freddie"
DS: Rameses Ralph Porter (nb) "Ramsey"
Salima's mother was Egyptian and her father American. Her father was enthralled by her mother's exotic beauty. Unfortunately, they had nothing in common. They stayed together, but it wasn't a happy marriage. Salima was their only child. Andy was the eldest of a large family. His parents didn't have much in the way of money, but they knew how to be a family. Andy met Salima when she was part of a fashion show for charity at the local mall. He was enthralled by her exotic beauty. However, as he got to know her, he came to love her for her humor and intelligence. He's been able to show her what a family could be like. They've married, and now Salima can't wait to start her own family and pass down her heritage to them. Andy is just happy to have Salima in his life and ready to see where life goes.

The Moriarty Family
DH: Doyle Jethro Moriarty (39)
DW: Amabel "Mabs" Margo (née Alvey) Moriarty (36)
DS: Elijah Mordecai Moriarty (6)
DD/DD: Miriam "Mira" Rebecca Moriarty / Lorena "Rena" Cadence Moriarty (4)
Doyle met Mabs when they ran into each other, literally, at the park. She was doing some yoga and he wasn't watching where he was jogging. They ended up going out to coffee, and before they separated Doyle knew that he had to ask her out. They had dinner together that night, and every night for the rest of the week. Doyle was fascinated with Mabs art, and Mabs thought it wonderful that Doyle was a writer. They complimented each other well and fit into each other's lives equally well. Best of all, they loved each other. By the end of the summer, they were living together. Two years later, they were married.
