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)

We are here!

Our flight to Nanning was a little turbulant, but we arrived last night at about 6:30. Our hotel is beautiful though the beds are ROCK hard. We are able to use the business center here for about $4/hr. We'll be posting information but photos are questionable from here. We'll see if we can borrow some time on someone else's laptop. Pray for us and for Hope today as we meet her and welcome her into our family.

Love from Nanning, Guangxi

Dear Beth and Ron,
We're so happy to hear from you. Many people send their love and prayers. We spent a lot of time answering questions at church this morning. So much love sent your way from your church family. We are anxiously waiting to see photos of our granddaughter. We love you all. God bless you as you continue your journey to become a family of 3.

Hoping all goes exceptionally well for you and the other families also. I can't even imagine what it will be like to hold your sweet daughter in your arms at long last. I'm sure everything else will completely melt away. I wish that time could freeze for you when you experience your first "family sandwich". :)

Love, goosebumps, and some tears...
