We are a family of five who will soon become a family of six after the adoption of our daughter from China, Lilyia Grace. John and I have been married for 11 ½ wonderful years and have three children, Alyson age eight, Austin age six and Parker age sixteen months. We are thrilled to be adding our fourth child to our family early in 2010 and this blog was set up for our friend and family to follow our adoption journey.
"I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you." John 14:18
