John’s Story (1987)

Left: James as a baby; James and his parents at his graduation. Right: John at a reunion at The Village’s 1680 Albany Avenue campus.

John and his wife had been thinking about adoption. When they attended a meeting at The Village to learn more about the process, they were told that there would soon be some infant children who needed a home. They did not have children of their own, and the opportunity to start “at the beginning” felt right. They knew they had made the perfect choice from the first time they held James. Today, John says that his son has grown into a wonderful man who is very loving and intelligent.

“We met James for the first time when he was nine days old. They said he’d been fussy, but when they handed James to me, he was suddenly relaxed. We knew it was meant to be.”
