Prayers, Please

Anna Grace has an appointment with a Pediatric Ophthalmologist (had to look up that spelling) tomorrow. Please pray that we get good news. I have often worried about her left eye and it has gotten much worse over the last few weeks. Please pray that there is no damage and I am just an over concerned mom.

Home for One Year


It is official-We have been home with Anna Grace for one year. Last year we arrived at the airport to the biggest party ever. Nana and Jodi worked hard to plan a big bash. There were over 50 people waiting to meet Miss Anna Grace. They all had on matching tshirts and were holding up big signs. Gidget even brought a huge banner that we put on our porch to let everyone know that our little princess was home. Our local news channel was there to record the entire event. Anna Grace was on TV within 24 hours of landing in the US. For weeks the video was online for everyone to see. We still meet people who ask if we are the family that was on TV-HA HA! It was such a fun time. We were so exhausted and sick. We didn't get to bed until 2am and Anna Grace decided to party ALL night. I never knew there was such a level of pure exhaustion. It took us a couple of weeks to recover. We would wake at 3 am and by 7 at night, we were walking zombies. We have been so blessed with all of the love and support our family has received. We are so grateful to everyone who waited for us and welcomed us home with such an outpouring of love.

CWA Picnic






We went to the CWA picnic this weekend. It was so much fun. We went to the picnic two years ago when we were waiting for Anna Grace. It was so different to be there and be able to introduce our daughter to everyone. Mei(our caseworker during the LONG wait) and Jane were there also and it was neat to see them. Sarah, Lana and Anna Grace Perry were there also. We had not seen Anna Grace since we left China. We were so happy to get to see Lillie and Maddie(and of course, Jake and Bobbi). Lillie is changing everyday. She is a beautiful little girl. It is hard to believe that she has been home for 3 months now. Anna Grace loved seeing her and Maddie. It was a super hot day and we felt like we were in China again. It was a fun day and we are looking forward to seeing all of these families grow throughout the year.
