Welcome to our adoption journey!!

Rupert and I  (Jen) started the adoption process two years ago. To our surprise, on April 15th, 2008 we received a phone call from Holt International, our adoption agency, with a referral for a 16-month-old baby girl named Guan Li Ling. Her sweet eyes pulled at our hearts!!

 Our two boys, Alexander & John-Ryan are very excited and can't wait for their little sister to come home. John-Ryan insists no Barbies or anything pink is allowed in the house. However, he is saving his "batter up" baseball pitching machine and his Thomas train set for her.
 

Thank you to our family and friends for all of love and support!
