So as I'd eluded to in a previous blog we are working on a 'book' to introduce us to potential kids and their case workers. I said I'd post some of it as we went along. While the 'book' is almost finished I thought I'd share the first section with you today!
After a few months of dating Michael ended a call by saying he loved John. They hung up and John was a little nervous. He texted to see if it was “luv” like a friend or LOVE. The response was LOVE. In April of 2010 John moved to Omaha so they could be together. In June of 2014 we undertook a new challenge in life when we moved to Henderson, NV for Michael’s job and to be closer to his parents.
Dear …….,
You are probably have a few questions about who might be interested in adopting you. We thought we’d put together this little album to tell you a little more about ourselves. First and foremost: this is us! I’m John on the left and Michael is on the right. Yes he’s bald, but we don’t dwell on it. He can grow hair, but isn’t he handsome with a shaved head!
We met in January of 2009. We met the old fashion way: online! Michael lived in Omaha, NE and John lived in Des Moines, IA. We actually chatted via the online site for 6 months prior to meeting person. We had our first date and then both promptly left for two weeks of vacation back to back. Michael flew to SoCal to visit his family and just as he returned John flew to New Zealand for two weeks on his graduation present to himself to tour the country and visit friends. Upon our returns we continued to chat and eventually had date two, then three, then four….
