So excited!!! Shaling has been told about us! She knows she's wanted. That is so huge to me. I kept thinking here is this family doing so much to prepare for her...grandparents and aunts and uncles and cousins thinking about her so much and she has no idea. I'm in a celebratory mood just knowing that is no longer true.
There is an intern with In His Hands Orphans (the local adoption outreach group) named Sara. She is working on her graduate degree in social work. She has been to the house a couple of times to participate in our Home Study.
She just got back from an impromptu trip to China and while she was there, got to spend some time with many kids, including Shaling. She said Shaling kept confiscating her digital camera because she wanted to take pictures herself. Sounds like we may have a daughter with a vibrant personality.
Sara says she has updated pictures of Shaling and will be emailing them to me. I can't wait to see them and post them here.
This blog began as a place to share Shaling's journey from rice in China to popcorn in Illinois. However, it has evolved to include all sorts of happenings in the Reynolds family.
