We have been extremely blessed with the two most wonderful children in the entire world. Our first daughter came to us after many very emotional years with the infertility battle. We were basically chewed up, spit out and emotionally drained, financially still paying off medical bills. However hopeful that we would have children. After a very hard 21 month adoption process our daughter from China was referred to us. A journey that has forever changed the way we look at life and the world. We departed China thinking boy we could of done so much more, if we had only known. We both looked at each other knowing one way or another we would come back. China was not yet done with us, China was calling and we were ready to answer. Three years later we needed a sibling for our daughter, a sister seemed proper, however we stated we would be open to either a boy or a girl. Preparing for this adoption was a breeze, the documents, forms seemed like second nature, we were paper ready in record time. Nine short months later the call came. Hello this is Children's Hope, are you sitting down? We have a beautiful boy that is ready to be your son! We have a son! We have a son! We have enjoyed every single moment with our kids since then, joy with each milestone. They are the center of our world. Everything is perfect....why do I feel like this can't be the end? Becoming parents has been the most rewarding experience in our entire life. July 2006 I look at my husband, "don't we have room for just one more?"

The blog looks great and you have a beautiful family!! I will check back soon but if you click on the photo you can get to my blog and visit too.
Your blog locks and sounds great. I am so happy for you and your family, and also very envious. We would have loved to go back and bring home a sibling for Morgan, however it is not in our cards. I hope and pray that the wait will be short. But remember as you wait, that all the hardships of the wait along with the uncertainty of it all, were erased to be a faint memory the moment you met each of your children, as it will this time.
Keep in touch.
