Happy Chinese New Year!

Today is Chinese New Year, and the first time that Chinese New Year has felt significant to me. The nannies at my daughter's orphanage are likely celebrating. I pray the children get to be a part of the festivities and are not forgotten on a day like this. Welcome to the Year of the Ox - prayerfully, the year we will bring our little girl home.

Our paperwork should head to China in the next two weeks, as it is currently being authenticated in San Fransisco. Then we will be DTC, and can decide when we want to start looking for a "match" on the CCAA's lists. I hate having so much control, and just pray the Lord guides us in the decisions we need to make. We've been researching many different medical issues and trying to decide what we are ready for, and not really feeling adequate for anything.

Hey, Kelly :) We are friends with a GREAT family from our church who have adopted twice from China and do some work to support an orphanage there. If you have any questions I'm know they would LOVE to help you out. Their youngest daughter had a cleft palate and had surgery prior to them coming to get her in China. Let me know if you want their contact info. We're excited for you guys!
