Hello everyone,
The Lord is truly amazing in how He works out every detail. We are so excited that we will be leaving on Nov. 16th to our journey to China. We will fly into Beijing, and stay there for a fews days. On Monday, Nov. 20th we then go to Guangzhou to get Ava Claire, her province is Guangdong, so we stay in Guangzhou the rest of the time. We will return to the states on Dec. 2nd! Yippee! This is so exciting and truly amazing! Please pray for our journey and for those sweet babies who are still waiting a forever home!

Here is a sweet poem that a friend of mine had on her website, I just love it.

Legacy of an Adopted Child

Once there were two women who never knew each other
One you do not remember, the other you call Mother

Two different lives shaped to make you one
One became your guiding star, the other became your sun.

The first one gave you life, and the second taught you to live it

The first gave you a need for love, the second was there to give it

One gave you a nationality, the other gave you a name

One gave you a talent, the other gave you aim

One gave you emotions, the other calmed your fears

One saw your first sweet smile, the other dried you tears

One made an adoption plan, that was all that she could do

The other prayed for a child, and God led her straight to you.

Now, which of these two women, Are you the product of?

Both, my darling, both Just two different types of love.

Hey Rhonda,

I hope you'll be updating your blog during the trip ... would love to follow along. Email me with any other web sites of families in your group and we'll be keeping up with those, too.

Have fun ... just a few more hours until you meet Ava Claire! Can't wait to see more pictures!
