“We’re so in
love with him
it’s not funny.
We still look at
each other and
pinch ourselves
that he’s our son,”
Esther says happily.
“Howard’s been
incredible from the
start and he always
said it was really
important for us to
have date nights, so
we made it a priority
to get a babysitter
once a week so we
can have a date night.”

Esther had her first-
born in her late 30s,
making her journey to
motherhood that much
more special.
She also revealed baby
number two is definitely
a possibility in the future.
“I always wanted to have
children, since forever. So I
was just waiting for the right
man. Howard was on the same
page and he really wanted
kids as well, and we feel really
blessed that it happened for
us,” she adds. “We’d love to

universe holds. We’d definitely
love to if it’s possible, for sure.”
