Ok, I'm sentimental somewhat. Yeah, yeah, big deal, right? For normal stuff, yeah, but for your kids? I mean, adopting them from another country? It's a huge thing. I was just going back and rereading every little thing about Matthew's trip this past March. I found myself tearing up at certain parts. Especially seeing his "blank" face look when we got him. And seeing the hints of his mentos that the "Mother" Nanny had given to him to keep him quiet and occupied. (semi laughing)
You wanted some photos? How about of our son's first pictures? These are the FIRST and only photos we ever received about our child when we (or should I say, GOD chose him for us) chose him. Enjoy.......... (In order, Matthew's visa picture, Orphanage photo 1, Orphanage photo 2.) THIS IS OUR BOY! :o)

Hey Kristen, the world would be a much better place if we were ALL more sentimental. I love going back to read and re-read our journey to Mailia. Not only was it an amazing adventure to visit a foreign country, to be on the other side of the world, but it was life-changing for all three of us, and in the best possible way! My only regret is that we didn't do it sooner. If we had, I'm sure Mailia would have at least one brother or sister by now, maybe two. LOL
Love seeing more pictures!
Hugs,
Shirley
Mailia's mom

Hey Shirley, have the new "rules" cut you guys off? Kinda like us, huh? I have diabetes type II. That's apparently on the NO-NO list from China at the moment.
Hey, once the rules lift? No telling what Roy and I might do! I would love another. Not now, and I know that. Later? Say in two years? I would go SN again in a HEARTBEAT!!!!!!!!!
Kristen
