One Year Ago

Sisters! Jessica is 6 weeks old in this picture.

One year ago, 11-13-06, our paperwork for our second daughter born in China was logged into the Chinese Center of Adoption Affairs (CCAA). It is hard to believe that a year has already passed since that time! Our latest report from our agency is that we have about another 13 months before we are matched with our daughter. Our best guess at this time (it is always a guess!) would be that we would receive her referral in December of 2008 and then travel in February of 2009. Seems like an eternity away, but we know God's timing is perfect to bring us to our 3rd daughter!

Playing dress-up!



Lilly and Jessica continue to bond. Lilly is always concerned when Jess cries and will excitedly give me any updates on her. "Mom ... Jess is crying ... Jess is smiling ... Jess is stinky (meaning a diaper change) ..." Jessica loves to smile and stare at Lilly. Their favorite game is "peekaboo" and playing dress-up.


We are SO blessed!
