Please welcome John Thomas Sharpe to the family! |
|
|
|
We're waiting on to travel in Russia. His name will be John Thomas Sharpe. We are debating whether to call him J.T. or Tony. John comes from my husband John and Thomas comes from John's brothers middle name. Unfortunately, John's brother is no longer with us. They called him Tony. We will let everyone know when we get off the plane with John Thomas in our arms what we will call him. |

Who told us about the agency |
|
|
|
|
|
A co-worker Dana Raney adopted a little boy from the agency that we chose. His name is Alexander. If you meet Alexander one time you would understand why we decided to adopt from Russia.
People ask me why we chose to adopt internationally instead of the US and I tell them that those children in Russia and other foreign countries don't have a chance. At least if they live in the US they can get help but if you live in places like Russia those little ones don't have a chance like they do in the US.
We would like to say a special Thank You to Dana and her mother Kay for all their help! They have really helped John and I get through this adoption. Dana has taken the time gathering information and the little things that we needed for our trip. Words cannot express how much we appreciate all the special things they have done for us.
Most of all, we give all the glory to God!! His is awesome and he has allowed us to be parents!
