Can't put it down!
If you haven't already read this book it is a must read. Snowflower and the Secret Fan is a great book. I'm not much of a reader but I can't put this one down. Okay, so it's about 19th century China and I guess I'm into all things Chinese, but it is really good. I'm about halfway through and hope to finish it this weekend.

Xin Nian Kuai Le! (Happy New Year!)
Momma is doing much better. Thank you all for your prayers. She is home and is recuperating.
No news on Ella but we are going to schedule our homestudy update. We need to update it to get approved for a special needs child. We also will be doing our fingerprinting again soon. They will expire before we travel so we need to redo those as well as our I-171H.
CHA-CHING! ($$$)

UNTIL FOREVER
This morning in China a mother cries
She'll never forget her daughter's eyes
Her heart is broken and filled with pain
Her tears run down like the falling rain.
She has no choice but to leave her there
The cost of keeping is too much to bear.
She hopes her daughter will one day know
True love can be found in letting her go.
This morning in China a baby cries
Hungry and scared as tears fill her eyes
Her mother has left her in this public place
Another lost daughter of the Chinese race.
Someone passing has heard her soft moan
She is soon taken to a foster home.
It's here she'll reside in the care of another
Until she's adopted by a brand new mother.
That very same day in the U.S.A.
A woman cries as she starts to pray
Her heart is heavy but filled with much love
She prays for a daughter she thinks the world of
"Dear Jesus, I ask that your arms would be
Wrapped tightly around the one picked for me
Guard her in China until I make my way
and then in my arms she'll forever stay."

Ye have received the Sprit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
