The story of our journey to bring Meizi Meilin home from China
We started our adoption journey in December of 2006. It was a very special, sweet girl named Rebekkah on a special needs waiting list that opened our hearts to a special needs child. This sweet girl was with another agency and had a family coming for her and we were heart broken but so grateful that she had such an impact and influence on us to adopt again. We had an intense longing for our daughter, Jade Lin Huixiang who we adopted from China in 2002, to have a Chinese sister to share their Chinese heritage with and to have a life long bond and tie to China.
Thank you for your interest in our story to bring Meizi Meilin home and for your support of our adoption!
