In the upper left margin, you will see a link called Letters from China. If you have some spare time, read through them. They are emails that I wrote home to family and friends while we were in China. I finally decided to share them here at the Adoption Blog after receiving a lot of email requests asking for information about our trip to China.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading through them as I added them to the site. It brought back a lot of awesome memories. What an incredible journey!
Posted by Mark at April 30, 2005 12:43 AMI wondered if you have heard about an album called, "Little Angel Smiles." It shares the experiences of adoption from the perspective of the birth mother, adoptive family, child and even the birth grandfather. It is amazing. Thought you might be interested. There is a web-site at www.littleangelsmiles.com. Adotpion is an incredible journey.
Posted by: at May 2, 2005 03:56 PMHi Mark and Naomi (and Kaylee too!) - I've been following your story while you were in CHina. My DH - Alex and I decided in January to adopt a little girl from CHina too. So I just found your site around the time you were traveling. Thank you so much for sharing your beutiful story. I love reading your updates and viewing your pic's. I can't wait until our paperchase is over and we travel to pick up a sweet little one like you did. You are truly blessed - congratulations and best wishes for a long healthy family life! Thanks again for sharing.-- Anne
