Welcome! 欢迎

This Blog is dedicated to the Adoption of our Little Chinese girl Isabella "Ella". We began the adoption process in November of 2009. We hope to have completed the process and the adoption by the end of 2010. Check back as we update the process including updates while we are in China!

Service Meeting Complete!

The Drive to Cleveland for our service/adoption seminar was a rainy and dreary one. It poured rain all day long. The service meeting went well and we met several families from the Columbus area. There were 3 couples (including us) and two single women there. Just one other couple adopting from China. The rest were there to adopt from Russia. We were surprised that all the couples also had biological children too! We thought that we would be a minority but it turns out to be a common thing. The meeting went well and we met with a social worker and therapist. The theme of the meeting was "bonding". Learned some interesting things about the adoption process. We also watched a video about some of the past groups that went over to China. Lots of touring and shopping. Will be an exciting place to visit. Now off to more paper work and the dossier.
