In 1984, Cindy moved back to Arizona after her husband’s successful election bid, and she gave birth to their first child – a daughter they named Meghan. Two sons would follow suit in 1986 and 1988 named John Sidney IV and James.
In 1991, while Cindy was visiting Mother Theresa’s orphanage in Dhaka, she saw two girls that urgently needed medical help in the United States, and she immediately began the process to adopt one of the girls whom she named Bridget; the adoption became official in 1993. The McCain’s, therefore, had four children together.
