I feel such a need to give something back" and the process they went through to arrive at the final decision... "All of the arguments I came up with against it amounted to selfish reasons - not good enough".<BR/><BR/>I share it with anyone who will listen.<BR/><BR/>If everyone could recognize how blessed we are and out of that, make the decision to give just a little something back – how this would change our world!!!<BR/><BR/>Thank you Neylands, for changing Owen's world (and by virtue of your example - all of ours)<BR/><BR/>Love you Alway's,<BR/>Big SisSis Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05166614776817461936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8021630766058353341.post-63226478824619179302009-02-11T05:42:00.000-08:002009-02-11T05:42:00.000-08:00Melissa, my family received our son Lian Han Kun a...Melissa, my family received our son Lian Han Kun a few days ago (our blog is at www.manylives.ca) and today we visited the orphanage in Lianyungang City. It was a very moving visit. I will be posting more about it tomorrow (8 hours in the car with 2 kids wiped us out).<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I wanted to say that we gave a donation to the orphanage and they decided they wanted to purchase clothes for the children. We went to the department store and watching them pick things. Afterwards our guide told us that they bought an outfit for a three-year-old boy who would be adopted on February 16. And I realized that boy must be Han Wen! So I wanted to tell you they are preparing for your family to meet him. :-) They want him well-dressed when you meet him.AlisonGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02900252342131664257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8021630766058353341.post-19786845172712016082009-02-10T12:07:00.000-08:002009-02-10T12:07:00.000-08:00Melissa - I am so excited to find your blog.

On that day, you will become the official mother of four and many of us here in the US will be saying a prayer for you and anxiously awaiting his photo!!! All I have to say is that the campsites better have Wifi!!!!!
