Introducing....Evan Jun MacKinnon

Finally, after months of being in the process of adoption we finally have a son! Although our journey has taken some very different and amazing turns over the last month, we are so thrilled to introduce our son ~ Evan Jun MacKinnon.







He will be 5 years old THIS Sunday, Feb 10th. He is from Guangxi Province (Luizhou City). His profile says he is active, gets along well with others and his favorite things to do are play games, ride his bike, play with toys and pistols - YUP, sounds like he'll fit in just perfectly here!
-
His "special need" is repaired cleft lip and palate.
-
His Chinese name is YangJun and we will call him Evan Jun (prounounced June) - probably Jun Jun for awhile as that is what he is called by his foster family.
-
We just think he is so amazingly special and absolutely gorgeous!
