One of my best friends and her husband have decided to adopt from Colombia and I have introduced her to your blog. I know it will be a comfort to her in hard times during her experience.<br /><br />Thank you so much for letting us all go on this journey with you.<br /><br />Rick and I love you all so much! Happiness!

When you tell people that when you do God's will He takes care of you, sometimes they don't get it. You did an amazing job of describing the beauty of adoption. We are looking forward to traveling to our son in the Hunan Province (Hengyang City SWI) sometime in April or May and bringing him back here to Louisiana.<br />I'm praying your trip is smooth and uneventful.<br /><br />God Bless,<br />AliciaAliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17168260227661867475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8189441989106924796.post-29217752496812572152010-02-03T17:18:06.306-06:002010-02-03T17:18:06.306-06:00Yes....yes.
