Rosie is in the Shanghai Children's Home and is 4 months younger than Lia. We are basically in the homestretch, waiting for travel approval, and then we'll be able to buy our airline tickets! Lia is very excited to have a sister and we are super excited to become parents yet again. We're feeling very blessed.

Proverbs 25:25 Like cold water to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a distant land.
