I have so much to say about today. I don’t even know where to begin.

These were taken yesterday morning at breakfast with my iPhone. She is smiling and playful!

In other words, we are all ready for […] Read more…
BELIEVE WITH ME!
I am finding it so hard to believe that we are really leaving for China in THREE days!
It seems like only yesterday that I began to seriously entertain the dream to adopt.
It was two years and nine months ago when I began to purposefully pray about adoption. Our daughter Victoria had been working on […] Read more…
