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

Colette,

I'm a member of the CHI China Board, too. I recognize your name from posts.

We are so happy for you, Bob and Megan-Olivia is FINALLY ready!

You are embarking on the most amazing journey of your life, just you wait!! We loved China. I read your iteniary and almost died-the dates match ours EXACTLY from last year, except we went straight to Guangzhou from Beijing. : ) I hope that you have packed long undies for Beijing-it's beautiful AND cold & windy too! Guangzhou is pretty warm.

Have a safe trip, we will enjoy following your journey!
