Welcome

Welcome to my blog. This is a journal of things in my life during the adoption process. If you want to start at the beginning you need to read backwards. What this means is go to the archives (January 2006) and read through to current time. I enjoy reading your comments, so please post your thoughts for me to read. Colette

I just gave birth.... at least it feels like it! We got the call at 11:30 a.m. This is what we have been waiting for.... our REFERRAL!

Chinese Name: Xin Min Ya
Translation: 'Min' means people and 'Ya' means elegant
Birthdate: March 12, 2006
Province: Hunan
City: Changsha
Medical: (as of September when she was 6 months old)

We chose to name her Olivia, we are not sure on the middle name yet.

We are all so happy!

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WALKER FAMILY!!!

How excited you must all feel. She is finally real and it happened. It was a long time coming. Olivia is such a pretty name and by the picture I saw, she will fit it perfectly.

Again, congratulations!!
