Final Decree!

Our Adoption is Finalized!!!  After nearly 2 1/2 years of waiting and worrying we are so grateful to announce that we are parents of a 1 year old little girl.  We went straight from finally finding out we made the April 1st deadline into court 2 weeks ago to receiving the Final Decree!  Usually there are a few more steps involved and much more waiting but we are thrilled that how ever it all worked out in Taiwan, she is now officially our daughter!

We are so grateful for all the prayers and support from our family and friends during this long process.  She is so lucky to have each and everyone of you in her life.  We would have never made it through this process without you and there are no words to express the love we have for all of you.  THANK YOU!!

We are excited to share the first pictures we ever saw of her (9 mo.) and the most recent pictures after 4 months.  We are definitely biased but we think she is so beautiful!  I am now one of those mom's that can say that!




Everyone asks whats next?  We will let you know as soon as we know.  We should receive travel dates sometimes this week which is scheduled around a Visa appointment for her in Taiwan.  This is typically about 4 weeks but could be sooner or later... now the anxiety of getting everything ready, Fast!

Hoooooray!!! Oh excitement! She is lovely, and you don't have to be biased about that. How wonderful that you got the crib just in time and exciting to know that your travels are taking you to your daughter very soon!
