Evan is just Our Son

This is a subject that has been on my mind lately. I know that a zillion people know that we adopted Evan from Russia. Friends, family and people who come across our blog. However, to us Evan is just our son. Not our son from Russia. I think back to this summer when Evan and I met some of my friends at a local coffee house. One of my friends had an acquaintance come in and she introduced us. When she introduced me to her friend, she said this is Christy and her son Evan. It meant so much that she didn’t say and her adopted son or her son from Russia.

So if you see us out and about and even though you may know Evan’s adopted, please introduce us as Kevin and Christy and their son Evan. He just happened to join our family in a different way.

Your precious son and my precious nephew (not nephew from Russia) :)
Did you get those glorious pictures from the pumpkin patch framed, yet? Give Evan a hug and kiss from Aunt Dennie (not Aunt Dennie from USA)
