神所賜福的家庭
Hi. I'm Sarah. He's Kevin. She's Hannah Claire. We're a family, blessed with our daughter via international adoption. Hannah was born and lovingly cared for in Taiwan, placed into our arms on 12.29.08, and things haven't been quite the same since. Hallelujah! On 9.2.11 we rejoiced when we received the referral for a little boy, nearly 10 months old, living in foster care in Taiwan. Our family is excitingly preparing for him to come home in 2012.



"By adopting a child and helping them reach their potential, they help us reach ours. An adopted child is not an unwanted child; to the contrary. They are a child who was searched for, prayed for, cried for, begged for; received by arms that ached, making empty hearts full. Love is meant to be shared." - Author unknown

Song for Lucy - the video

Jackie and family at Taiwan Lucy have made a Youtube video of their "Song for Lucy." It's beautiful. I cry every time I watch it. If it touches your heart too, stop by their blog and leave them a message. It's been six months since their referral of lil' Lucy. It took a long time to get logged into court, so things are taking awhile. I think they could use some uplifting words of encouragement.
