Where were you 2 years ago!

I can tell where Jon and I were, we were pacing back and forth trying to stay calm. We received an e-mail from our China adoption agency that they were expecting our groups referrals, that they were on route to their office but had gotten LOST! How can a truck get lost?!? Haven't they ever heard of GPS??? Anyway, I digress. The truck finally made it to the agency, now we just had to wait until they got everyone's referral organized and wait for our call!

The Stork Has Arrived! If you have received this email we are pleased to announce that we have received your referral! Congratulations!

We are EXTREMELY busy getting everything prepared to call you (sorting referrals, scanning your pictures, etc!) So, that all of you will get your referral call as soon as possible! We plan to call everyone today!

We appreciate your cooperation and we ask you to refrain from calling or e-mailing us as it slows our processing. We are working as quickly as we can to bring your referral to you! We thank ALL of you for your continued patience and support!

Congratulations and we look forward to calling you soon!


Ours was one of the first calls made (Thank GOD!)

This is a picture of "Our CALL!" Krista from our agency is on the phone with Jon and I, telling us about our DAUGHTER! If you look closely, you can see Natalie's information in her hand.

Jon and I were beyond words! Our daughter was perfect! She was, and still is, the joy of our lives. Here are the first pictures we saw of our sweet, sweet angel.
