What a great idea! I would definitely put it in Mary Joyce's baby book. Can't wait until she's in your arms.

Awwww, this brought the LES in my eyes.... . What a special idea!!

I know, the waiting is the worst part in adoptions, but once your litle girl is there, you wil forget all the trouble and be VERY happy!!

I cannot wait till I can shout out: "Welcome to your forever parents, Mary Joyce" !!

How cute

(((HUGS))) to expectant mom Dusty

You have lots of aunties (and a few uncles) here on the board - it is always such fun to finally meet the new babies. How exciting it will be when Mary Joyce is finally here. Hope you have time then to post for us

I have to admit that the picture wasn't my idea. It is fairly well-known in the China adoption community. I thought y'all might enjoy it, though.

Oh what a sweet & special gesture. My heart & thoughts go out to you 7 your family, wishing for only the best. It has been a dream of mine to adopt a child some day.
Your baby girl will be a special girl thats for sure. Congrats, I am so very happy for you & all involved. And what a beautiful name, Mary Joyce, perfect.

That is very cute. I was thinking about you just last week. I didn't know the date had been pushed back, and hadn't seen anything from you for a while, I thought maybe you were already in China. Well, hope things move quickly and smoothly.

I've been around, but life has been a zoo for about the last 3 weeks. We had 3 deaths in the church, went out of town for a couple of days, and my husband had the flu. I'm ready for an uneventful week.
