It’s Official — I’m An Uncle!
Well it’s official! My brother’s adoption of a child from Guatamala was approved today. I am now the Uncle of the child you see in the photograph above. His name will be Thomas Michael although at this time I don’t know if my brother will calling him Thomas, Tom, Tommy, Mike or something else. [UPDATE: My brother has informed me the cute little tyke will be called Thomas.] Also due to a massive backlog because of several corrupt Guatamalan adoption agencies being caught selling babies (violations of the Hague Convention on Intercountry Adoption), he is going to have to wait an estimated 3-6 weeks before being called down to Guatamala to be given the child. However it will happen and all of my family are very excited.
