I have looked at these picture's a hundred times since we received them this afternoon. I could never have imagined the love that I would feel for this little girl just by seeing her picture.
We have so much to be thankful for right now. I am thankful for my family and friends for all the support they have given us through these past 2 1/2 years. I am thankful for all my blogger friends who each morning when I open my computer leave me wonderful comments. We are most thankful for this little girl who waits for us. We are truly blessed.
Here's what I can tell you so far about Larkyn.... Her Birthday is August 11, 2006, we will get her two days after she turns one. She resides at Xuwen Comprehensive Welfare Institute, in the Guangdong Province.
Holy... Holy... Holy Cow I never thought this day would ever get here. I want to pinch myself just to make sure it's not a dream.
Welcome our Beautiful Larkyn!!!! We can't wait to get you home!!!!

When I got off the phone with you yesterday, I just stared at my niece's pictures and cried! She is so beautiful and I am so very happy for you. I can't even begin to describe how very proud I am of both you and David for the most amazing life you are going to give this beautiful little "China Doll". It has been a long 2 1/2 years for you I know, especially this last month.....but God knew what he was doing...and he has sent you the most perfect gift. I love her already and I can't wait to hug her, squeeze her and kiss her like my very own in August when she gets home! LOVE YOU ALL.
Oh, wow! Larkyn is beautiful! Congratulations! Wendy, Im so happy for you and your family! Can't wait to meet little Larkyn in Beijing!

So happy for you Wendy. She is just beautiful!! (born 2 weeks before Hannah!!)
Wendy and family,
CONGRATULATIONS, now I am jealous that we can't travel together, I would have liked to be there to meet you and Larkyn. She is really beautiful, worth the wait, right.
Can't believe only two more weeks and we might see you daughter's face for the first time too!!
