Five Years Ago!


Five years ago today, we got our first glimpse of our daughter-to-be when we received the packet of our referral paperwork from China!















All we knew about this little girl is that she was almost 10 months old, her name was Guo Kui Yan, and she was living in Zhuzhou City, Hunan. A leap of faith took us on a long journey to meet her, and I can't imagine any other little girl that could have been more perfectly selected to be part of our family.

On this day five years ago, we joined thousands of families who have opened their hearts to adoption and who have chosen to build their families in this way, and we are so glad that we did.

Enjoy the very first pictures we received of Kui Yan, soon to be Abby, as we remember this very special day!
