“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.

A "sprinkle" for Emma Grace

Rick's sisters (Christa, Colleen and Julie) wanted to do a shower for Emma Grace. It was actually a "sprinkle" since this is our 4th kid and we have so much baby stuff already. Although it was called a sprinkle, we were certainly showered with many, many things for our girl. Let's just say she will be one well-dressed little girl! Here are some pictures from the big day.
This adorable blanket has her name on it. It is in her bed waiting for her!
A new backpack... this also has her name on it. It was full of "girl" themed books. (don't have too many girly things in this house!)
yippee for dresses!
Emma Grace, you are loved. This was all for you!
