Another family adopting from the same orphanage as us has created an amazing music video of their wait for their daughter Lucy. They have been waiting for 6 months to get court approval after accepting their referral. Did I mention we were extraordinarily lucky to get approved so quickly?!

Just scrolled through all the yahoogroups dealing with Taiwan adoptions -- it makes me feel very unprepared to travel. We were very organized with webcams and Skype 2 years ago when Josh went to get Margaret - and then he couldn't get it to work from China. So we haven't even thought about it for this trip and we gave away our second webcam so can't do it. . . I'm not sure it would help the girls to see us on the computer though since we're only gone for a week and the time difference makes it hard to actually connect at useful times.
On a more positive note, I did learn that the hotel we're staying in in Taipei is a popular one and people really like it and it's in a great location. Two more days now until we leave. . .
This blog describes our journey to David Yueh-Chien who is waiting for us in Taiwan.
Happy Girls Waiting for Their Baby Brother!
A Little Bit About Us
We live in West Lafayette, Indiana. We have two beautiful daughters - Annabel and Margaret. Margaret is adopted from Hanzhong City (Shaanxi Province), China. Annabel was born in Indianapolis. We are excited and honored to be adopting Yueh-Chien who currently lives at the St. Lucy's Orphanage in Tainan, Taiwan. Yueh-Chien was born January 26, 2007; we accepted his referral in December 2007. According to the orphanage, he is already walking and running and saying mama. He is apparently a very serious boy and is very scared of strangers.
