Welcome.....

First of all, thank you for taking the time to read our blog.  It is with great joy that we share our story.

Last March I was afforded the wonderful opportunity to go on a mission trip to Haiti with a group of individuals from Jacksonville.  It was one of the most amazing and humbling experiences that I have had during my time here on earth.  Little did I know that God was preparing my family for something much BIGGER.  Haiti was just a prelude to build my faith and confidence in the Lord and what he was about to do in our lives.  Mike did not go to Haiti with me but what he did do was just as important, which was staying back and taking care of our two little girls and giving me some amazing support.

We began the adoption journey back in the spring of this year and it has been God led from the beginning.  The seed was sown about a year and half ago but it grew into something beautiful this year.

October 23, 2010 was a day that my family and I will never forget.  It was the day that God showed us this incredible baby girl named An Jing Hu, who was His but needed a physical family to love and nurture her.  There is no doubt in our minds that God has big plans for her due to the fact that she was only three and ½ lbs when she was abandoned.   She was left with nothing, found by the commoners and taken to the Children's Welfare Institute where she has been ever since.  Addison Jing will join her forever family in 3-4 months, when Mike and I will travel to receive her into our family. 

Here is our miracle...
