Welcome! Hopefully, I will be blogging soon about our trip to China! For now, let me tell you where we have been. On February 5th, we received "the call!" It was quite a surprise as we had been told we had another 18 months to wait. I was at work, Jason was in the parking lot of Lunds with Catherine when Sarah at CCAI made the call. Sarah also called us for Catherine's referral and it meant a lot to receive our referral for Tegan from Sarah.
On the right are the first photos we had of Teagan. It was love at first sight and the minute we saw her, and we knew our decision would be YES when her photo came through.
Her name is Qian Jia Yue which means beautiful and happy or joy. Teagan is an Irish name that also means beautiful. We will be naming her Teagan Jia. Teagan was 10 months when we first saw her. She will be closer to 15 months by the time we hold her for the first time. She is living in Angel's Home in Beijing and from what I have been able to see on their web page, she is receiving amazing care and love from the Angel Moms. We are eternally grateful to the ladies who run Angels Home. She has already had one surgery and we expect there will be more to come when she comes home.
We are waiting for our travel approval. We hope it will come this week and that we can go in mid June. This wait has been very hard.
