Journey to Tian Elaine Angela

We're Bo & Dana, and we're the parents of four amazing children. Through the years, we've discussed adoption, and at one point were even looking into an adoption, but the timing was never quite right.  Now with four children, we figured it probably wasn't going to happen. 

One day after attending a family conference (where the word adoption was never even uttered), Bo came up to me while I was sorting laundry and said that he knew God was calling us to adopt a baby girl from China.  I was stunned, to say the least!  Especially since I had always been the one to feel more led in that direction.  But I praise God that this is the next journey He's called our family to, and we look forward to sharing this journey with our family and friends! 

Even with all the delays, hiccups, and frustrations that are part and parcel with the adoption process, we thank God for His love and encouragement through His Word.  It is what sustains us.

                                                   Isaiah 46:11b

                           Truly I have spoken; truly I will bring it to pass.
                                   I have planned it, surely I will do it.
