welcome to Jack


We are pleased to announce the addition to our family of Jack Phuoc Dat Charles Sullivan. The adoption was made official as of 4:15pm (local time) Friday, June 29th/2007 in Tra Vinh, Vietnam. Jack is the son of proud parents Vanessa Charlesworth and Taylor Sullivan. He is grandson of Ron & Eileen Varney and John & Hazel Sullivan, nephew to Kendall, Julie, Mandy, Dan, David, Beverley, cousin to Danielle, Adam, Cole, Ella, Amanda-Rachel and great-grandson to Mrs. H. Sullivan.

It was a very long, tiring journey to Tra Vinh and back, but we have returned safely and are settling into our new routine at the hotel. Jack is adorable and somewhat verbal and is slowly taking in everything around him.

We will send further updates, once we are bit more settled and recovered from the weekend.

blessings
Vanessa and Taylor

We are so pleased that at last Jack is officially part of the family. It has been an exhausting time for you physically and emotionally. The joy that you must now feel will compensate for all that. We are all looking forward to meeting Jack in person. May the coming days be a very special time for you all as you begin to bond together in love and harmony.
Only 6 months until Jack's baptism/dedication on December 30th!
May the Lord bless you and take care of you.
May the Lord be kind and gracious to you.
May the Lord look on you with favour and give you peace.

With love and prayers from Auntie Bev and Uncle David. xxxx

Congratulations! I'll make sure the good news gets around Newtonbrook United tomorrow morning. Hope all goes well with the rest of the paperwork and settling in and the journey home.
