Introducing Lila Hope Thompson
Our baby girl (referral picture)


We witness a miracle every time a child enters into life.
But those who make their journey home across time and miles,
growing within the hearts of those who wait to love them,
are carried on the wings of destiny and placed among us
by God's very own hands.

Lila's Birthday pictures!!!








Soooo our Lila turned 1 on 6/25/2011! My heart is aching because we were not there or her with us on this very special day! But Ann, at Red Thread, once again put together a great care package for her. It included this cake, which looks yummy by the way, a letter translated from us, a disposable camera and a toy. We received these pics about a week or so ago. She is just so stinkin cute!! I can't wait to kiss those cheeks!


We also moved through another step in this process----Our I800A (request to classify adoptee as immediate family) was processed, approved and cabled to the Consulate in Guangzhou, China. So we are awaiting our Article 5 and then Travel Approval!!!


We are just about finished with her room---and are now getting her some clothes, hairbows, toys and a car seat. I am having so much fun and thank God everyday for blessing us with a beautiful daughter and bringing us on this journey.
