We went down to the Civil Affairs Office at 1030 this morning to get our babies. There are 12 families in our group, although not all from our orphanage. The orphanages brought them in and the girls from Maoming were adorable. They were all dressed the same and walked in like a little train, each holding the jacket of the one in front of them. I tried to get a photo, but so did the eleven other families. Julianna's orphanage brought two girls. They wisked them in and all I got was a photo of the back of one of the nannies.


Here are a couple of photos. There are more photos and one of the other daddies made a video of the whole day and has promised everyone a copy. I'm having trouble with the blogger, so more photos to come.

Steve called us from the church so excited -- as was everyone there. So many people have prayed for this day in your lives. She's a little China Doll! We are so happy for you two, and for Julianna because she now has two of the most wonderful parents possible. Love to the three of you.

Dear Sherry and Phillip,
I am looking at the pictures and crying! What a blessing! God is looking down at the three of you and is smiling! "Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heart." Psalm 37:4
