Ok Shannon, I get to my hotel room this afternoon - find out that we have itineraries & Gotcha Day on Mothers Day & then watch this????
Now I have to redo all my makeup and find my eyedrops before I meet my coworkers for dinner in 45 minutes!
It was VERY moving and I loved every minute of it! I know that video will have a BIG effect on a lot of people. What is so ironic is that I just read that "starfish" story somewhere - can't remember were - just yesterday.. and I love that symbolism.
Thanks again for bringing us together and for this wonderful web site to share with all!

That was a great movie! It had me crying. Those children are so sweet. I really hope this makes a great impact on others as well. I can't wait till I am able to adopt myself!

Shannon and Tricia,
We are involved with you in this one. Praying, watching, hoping, crying, and wondering when our turn will come. This video is powerful.
Keep up the good work.

Well, I've been in China almost 4 years now, and I've heard about how many orphans there are (almost all of which are girls), and I have seen many families adopt. I've thought for a long time now if I ever get married I want to adopt a Chinese baby. The need for Workers who love people and are willing to invest in eternity is so great, and the laborers are few. We need more Family over here! Is anyone out there willing to come?! Millions have never heard. Telling them is no sacrifice. I can't believe how blessed and happy this life is on the other hemisphere. He is working. Please come join in the harvest.
