Tony and Lexy Thomas are a\u00a0couple\u00a0who have taken the dating to\u00a0a\u00a0whole new level. Their story became a\u00a0lesson to\u00a0all naysayers who skeptically treat any relationship that\u2019s born online and developed over the big distance. The duo have built a\u00a0happy blended\u00a0family\u00a0and made it\u00a0official after Tony adopted all six of\u00a0his wife\u2019s kids from her previous marriage.\n
Tony Thomas and Lexy first met on\u00a0a\u00a0dating site. This happened just a\u00a0month after Lexy, the stay-at-home mom, first signed\u00a0up. She lived in\u00a0Kentucky at\u00a0the time, and her family was already very big at\u00a0that moment. Lexy is\u00a0a\u00a0mom for sons Elijah, 16, Isaiah, 15, Ethan, 14, Sheldon, 12, Simeon, 10, and Iridius who is\u00a07.\n\n
\n
It\u00a0was true love at\u00a0first sight.\n\n

The couple started talking\u00a0online, and their relationship soon started to\u00a0grow into something big. In\u00a0fact, Tony and Lexy began dating long distance, and such a\u00a0relationship model lasted for some time. Then, there was a\u00a0big day, when Tony finally decided to\u00a0fly to\u00a0see Lexy and her big brood in\u00a0Kentucky.\n
Tony and Lexy both instantly fell madly in\u00a0love. Many people were sure that their relationship wouldn\u2019t work out. Lexy revealed, that the odds really weren\u2019t in\u00a0their favor.\n\n
\n
Lexy still considers their love a\u00a0kind of\u00a0miracle.\n\n

Lexy took to\u00a0TikTok\u00a0with a\u00a0candid video, where she shared her thoughts on\u00a0their romance and relationship. The\u00a0clip\u00a0is\u00a0made of\u00a0the snaps where the happy couple are posing together, and Lexy made some captions explaining why actually many people were so\u00a0skeptical about their love, and why she actually thinks it\u2019s a\u00a0real miracle.\n
She pointed out that the odds of\u00a0them getting together were really tiny. Lexy, a\u00a0mom of\u00a06\u00a0young kids, living in\u00a0Kentucky, and Tony, a\u00a0dad to\u00a0an\u00a0almost grown daughter, living 863 miles away in\u00a0Florida. Lexy confessed that no\u00a0one really believed it\u00a0would work out, but it\u00a0did, and then the woman goes on\u00a0with absolutely happy moments of\u00a0their life together, as\u00a0a\u00a0family. The woman\u00a0confessed in\u00a0the comments, that for them both, it\u2019s been quite the journey, but one she would do\u00a0again in\u00a0a\u00a0heartbeat with Tony as\u00a0her husband in\u00a0the end.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
\n
The adoption process took their relationship to\u00a0a\u00a0whole new level.\n\n

Not only Lexy had kids from her previous marriage. Tony also had a\u00a021-year-old daughter from his ended relationship, and the man made a\u00a0crucial decision to\u00a0adopt Lexy\u2019s 6\u00a0boys. The adoption paperwork took four years after their wedding, and finally he\u00a0became the boys\u2019 dad officially.\n\n\n\n\n
\n
Their biological\u00a0father\u00a0was no\u00a0longer in\u00a0their life and the kids hadn\u2019t seen him since they were younger, so\u00a0there were no\u00a0obstacles for Tony to\u00a0officially adopt all kids, except for their own will. Lexy shared that her children love Tony so\u00a0much they didn\u2019t hesitate even for a\u00a0moment to\u00a0take his surname.\n
Now, Tony is\u00a0on\u00a0all the kids\u2019 birth certificates as\u00a0their father. One of\u00a0the kids even insisted on\u00a0changing his first, middle and last name when he\u00a0was finally adopted by\u00a0Tony. The happy couple started planning for the whole big family to\u00a0live together in\u00a0Florida after they got married.\n\n
\n
The happy brood continues to\u00a0grow, with some new family members on\u00a0their way.\n\n

The couple have since\u00a0welcomed\u00a0another daughter together, and their latest\u00a0baby\u00a0#9. They often post videos online about coping with their blended family. Lexy jokingly calls her beloved a\u00a0super weird husband, but she admits that in\u00a0the person of\u00a0Tony she has got all characteristics she would attribute to\u00a0an\u00a0ideal man for her.\n
Both spouses love their messy household, and the chaotic lifestyle they\u2019ve got with so\u00a0many kids around. They call themselves a\u00a0very blended family because there has never been such a\u00a0huge combination of\u00a0the dynamic of\u00a0Tony\u2019s kids and Lexie\u2019s kids. But, without any doubt, they all are a\u00a0family, and there is\u00a0no\u00a0separation.\n
And here\u2019s yet another touching adoption story about a\u00a0single gay man, who\u00a0adopted\u00a0a\u00a0girl with Down syndrome, after she was rejected by\u00a0many families.\n
