Dear Friends and Family,

Today was a great day! Today we finally got to see our beautiful little girl. We have been waiting a long time for this day. We wanted to take a moment to thank each of you for your prayers, thoughts and encouragement through this long wait.

Thank you also to all of you who sent us blocks for her 100 blessings quilt. It is coming along nicely with over 70 blocks so far. If anyone hasn’t had the opportunity and wants to send something, there is still time. Please get it to us as soon as possible.

With the approaching Chinese New Year, we will most likely travel in early March. So please continue to be in prayer for our safe travel and a peaceful transition for her. We will send out another announcement once we get home from the trip.

We are so thankful to God for this opportunity. At each step in the process, you can see His handiwork. From the first inner nudging to adopt to finding out specifics about her today He has been there. While we may not have known her until today, He has known her from the beginning and that she would be with us.

Love Chuck, Angie, Nathan & CJ
