She says they used to walk around the neighborhood thinking, “What would it be like if we could house more people in our existing housing stock?”Christiana Rice, 43, and her husband Derek, 42, also say their household is richer because it includes inhabitants outside their nuclear family.
“We’re very clear and explicit in our agreements and expectations,” says Do. “We like to say that we are the big rocks in the river, and the water flows around us and our family life.”
