Welcome to our family website.

This blog, which began as a therapeutic outlet during the wait for our daughter's arrival, morphed into a place to share feelings, ask for support, and flip through a virtual 'brag book' of photos. NOW, as we embark on our second adoption trek, please join us as we plan, pray, and travel again to the other side of the world to be united with the next piece of our family puzzle.

Peace & Blessings...Beth & Ron (and Hope too)

Good news!

Hope's finding ad has arrived! I got the mail right away when I got home at about 3:30. But...you all should be so proud of me. I waited for Ron to get home and we opened it together. (Thanks for the inspiration Amy.) We were so excited to get this early photo of Hope. She's pretty darn cute!

Also - as of 7:45 tonight, we got the word that Hope is in fact in the care of Grace & Hope for Children. Please click on the link here and visit the website to learn more about the work they are doing in China. We feel so blessed! I'm going to sleep well tonight dreaming of our little daughter. We're on our way Hope. We're on our way.

Hey, I was just thinking about you guys and wondering what the status was and was soooo excited to see your baby girl! I am so happy for you both and will be praying that everything goes smoothly the end of May! Keep us posted! Everyone here is doing great...getting big and keeping us busy! God bless you guys! :~) Lots of love, Brad and Cameo Hokanson (your old neighbors!)

How fun for you guys to get another little glimpse about Hope's infancy. Do you know how old she is in the photo that you received?? What a great thing to have for her scrapbook!! Now hopefully this week you'll get your TA and then it won't be long. YEAH!! Love you guys!
