Hello there!

We are C3 & Maya authoring and creating The Ariel Series (@thearielseries). We’re sharing our life together as a Deaf and queer couple and our journey in being parents. We conceived via artificial insemination and now have ourselves a lil CODA (Child of Deaf Adults)! We’re looking to adopt and participate in foster care in the future as well. Hop on and have at it!

GIVEAWAY WINNERS:

Lately, with Mother’s Day around the corner, I’ve been wanting to wish Maya “Happy Mother’s Day” every day instead of just May 8th this year. That tells you, I’m a complicated person who overdoes it while Maya is as simple as they come. She is easy to please. She provides stability and security for our family. Her commitment to our little Ariel clan, does not waver. Now, even a simple person can wish big. She wished for one thing that she wanted more than anything in the world. She’s wanted a baby; long before I knew she existed. She told me once, “I’m meant to be a mother and that would make me happiest.” So, with a spritz of fertility treatment, a scoop of love, and a bucket of luck, Peri Scott came home to us.

Peri Scott clacked a large red lego piece against a similar yellow lego piece. I sat behind them on the floor, looking up. Maya was engaged in conversation with her mom. Holding up a “C” hand-shape, she said, “I remember the moment I fell in love with…” As I looked on, I anticipated a heartfelt disclosure about how she fell in love with me, considering my name starts with a “C”. I grinned, feeling so sure I was about to be reminded about our newborn love for one another. That is, until Maya finished her sentence. She signed “chopped liver”. Chuckling, I was not slightly dismayed. Rather, I was reminded of why I love Maya. Someone who doesn’t care if a tahini stain on her shirt is all someone else notices. Humorously, I shared what happened with Maya and her mom. We had a good laugh. Maya’s love for chopped liver became the joke of the day. This is what I appreciate about being in this mini family of ours. Our love is already known; no need to remind one another of it. We’re a frumpled bunch, and showers are in order. But it is exuberance we feel when we are close together.

Hello, hello! The traffic coming to our platform has increased by an astounding 431% compared to last month 😅 With so many new folks here with us, here’s a mini re-introduction!

Why Philadelphia?

Y’all, let me tell you how it’s going.

We found Big Love on our doorstep yesterday afternoon. It was out basking in the sun.

“Hali-ha-loo!”
