“An invisible red thread connects those who

are destined to meet, regardless of time,

place, or circumstance. The thread may

stretch or tangle, but will never break.”

An ancient Chinese belief


Our family made the decision to adopt in June 2009. We pursued a special needs adoption, and we were blessed with a referral of the most beautiful girl on May 21, 2010. We originally started this website to fundraise for our adoption expenses by selling tutus and hair bows. Our fundraising efforts coupled with a grant from Lifesong for Orphans were a tremendous financial blessing. We traveled to China in late October 2010 to meet our daughter. Now, Emma Grace is home... forever.

Another update... (May 24)

I got a response from Tim already. I asked if we could send some hair bows to the girls at PHF and told him our fundraising story. (for those that don't know, we have been making and selling tutus and hair bows to help raise money for our adoption.) I am going to overnight him a package of hair bows and some special things for Emma Grace.

How wonderful it will be to see those bows on all the girls! It really brings everything full circle for us! Here is the latest email:

Hi Sarah,

It is our great joy to help Emma Grace. We are so happy that you have been matched together with her. I would be happy to take some photos of her when I get there. We will be sure to give you a CD with all the pics we have of her when you come to get her. Would love the hair bows for the girls as well. We have 100 children at Shepherd’s Field and half of them are girls. Some however are still pretty young so send whatever you think is best. Please feel free to send the camera or anything else you want to send. We will give her the English name Emma Grace so she can hear that name right from the beginning. My mailing address is below. I will be leaving on Thursday morning at 6AM.

Blessings,

Tim
