Natalie Comes Home!

Our journey to adopting our daughter from China. A hundred years from now it will not matter what size my bank account was or the kind of car I drove...but the world may be different, because I was important in the life of a child.

Inching Along

Our SW told us we should be receiving our referral either the last week in September or the first week in October. Glug. I guess we'll be traveling in November afterall.

Waiting For A Picture

We are less than a month away from our referral and I can honestly say this has been one of the most difficult journeys of my entire life. And there have been some contenders, let me tell you. The amount of emotional strength I have had to muster to even get to this point has been a trial at best. To think that the only thing keeping us from our little girl is all this paperwork and we could have her in our loving arms to cuddle and love her. I don't like the idea of her not getting enough to eat. I want to start loving and protecting her. I almost can't bear the thought of her spending another night without us.

I know the ladies at the orphanage are doing their best to care for all the children, but she needs to be with her forever family.
