From the Beginning

One may ask why adopt from China.  Well, before Scott and I got married I saw a little girl from China with her parents.  I excitedly told him one of these days I would like to have a girl that has beautiful glossy black hair, fair skin, almond shaped eyes, and is small and petite.  He subtly reminded me he wasn’t Chinese.  I said, “Well, I’d like to adopt.”  Here we are 20 years later waiting to be matched to our beautiful child.  On July 7, 2010 we were officially logged in in China as a waiting family.  It is a monumental day.  There is a long wait ahead for our family, but the wait will definitely be worth it.  I pray for our unborn child to have health and love from the caregivers.  God has a purpose in our wait.  When the time comes we will be joyfully bonded to the God chosen gift from above.  Even though I have never met this child, I already have love in my heart.
