Pearl and PG met through one of my friend and it was first sight love for him. In 5 years, that love grew and they finally got married. Both of them have this talent of capturing small moments of life and living them to their fullest extent. With both our families, we just enjoy hanging out and spending time together. It is the family bonding and values that makes them wonderful couple for adopting and rearing a child.
Pearl is fun, loving and caring person who would be an amazing mother. She has got the gift to make a crying child smile in few seconds. We grew up in a small family but in a great neighbourhood where neighbours were integral part of family. That's where I could see that being around kids meant alot for her. I specially remember one of our neighbour's one year old daughter who would want nothing but be with Pearl. Not a single day would go by when Pearl would not have played with her. Being married into PG's family, God has given her a chance to be around kids and it was not a surprise when she became the most favorite aunt for all of them. Whenever she goes to India, every kid wants to spend all the time with her and waits anxiously for her next trip back home. Apart from being their friend, she plays a role of mentor/ teacher for them to achieve their goal in life.
I have known PG as a friend for 10 years and as a brother-in-law for 5 years. It is amazing to see the love he has for his family and Pearl's family. He is always willing to help a friend or family no matter what the time of day. He is intelligent and inquisitive person who understands what a child need and what should be done in a rightful way to make him/her happy.
I’m 100% sure that they’d be excellent parents and that they have the ability to provide a loving, caring, stable, and supportive home in which a children can grow and thrive.

We have known the PG and Pearl since August 2006 when we moved in next door to them in our neighborhood in Apex, NC. We lived next door to them until December 2007 when they relocated up north to New Jersey. During our time as neighbors we had the privilege of getting acquainted with PG/ Pearl and developing a wonderful friendship. They would visit with us and our daughter when we were playing outside and also we would eat dinner together on numerous occasions. They were involved with our little daughter and would play with her and interact with her on a regular basis. She also, in turn, enjoyed their company and would often ask to go next door to see PG and Pearl. During the course of our friendship we often talked about families and children. We know that they desired to start a family of their own and that they had tried for a long time, visiting specialists as well. We talked with them about adoption and we support them in their adoption process as they will be wonderful, loving parents. We feel that any adopted child would be loved by their family and would be accepted and loved by their surrounding community as well.

My wife and I had the opportunity to attend PG and Pearl's wedding in India. We witnessed their ceremony and were taken aback by the love they had for each other and also the support they both had from their family and friends. We spent two weeks in India, meeting with their families in cities across Northern India. Everywhere we visited, it seemed as if their were nieces and nephews anxiously awaiting the arrival of their Uncle PG and Aunt earl. With ease, PG and Pearl played with their younger nieces and nephews and also shared insight and advice with the older children. The relationship that truly enamored me was the relationship of PG and Pearl with their nieces Niki and Harshu. Although PG and Pearl didn’t see their nieces as often as they would have liked, upon stepping foot into their house, Niki and Harshu ran to their new aunt and uncle, jumped in their laps, and immediately started sharing all the excitement in their world. In addition to playing with the children, we was captivated at how PG and Pearl spoke with these young girls about their goals, next steps, and advice on how to achieve their dreams. It is with this ability to combine light-hearted playing and embracing life’s teachable moments we believe Pankaj and Parul will make truly phenomenal parents. They are intelligent, hard-working individuals that are also kind, gentle and have lots of love to share with children. Their relationship is strong…...

PG and Pearl come from a very family oriented background in India, which has actually shaped up their personalities as individuals as well as a family.
As a result, they are naturally affectionate towards children. Our little girl Anu is like a daughter to them. Anu mingles with them as just another family member.
When we observed them interacting with Anu, we found that they posses all the qualities needed in parents to deal with children in terms of understanding the delicate psyche of kids and also understanding all the children's' needs.
Without doubt, in no time they can become mature and loving parents to any child they opt to adopt and do not not need any parenting guidance. They are already very knowledgeable on parenting matters and above all posses the kindness and love that is needed most in these matters. We discussed with PG and Pearl's about their interest in adoption. In my opinion, it is the right step from their perspective.they can finally share their love and sorrows with a new member, whom they will love as their own child. I think the community will welcome such a step as it is a win-win for community as well. The community gets a happier family which enhances community's quality of life. Without any reservations, we can say that this adoption will be a boon for the parents as well as the child.........
