How could it be?

Has is really been five years since I got the most important call of my life?

It was November 5, 2002 at 1:30 p.m. when CCAI called with my referral of 8-month-old Yin Yi Qian. A few minutes later, I saw her face for the first time...


And here she is five years later...


It's a cliche, but it's true...you never know how fast time can fly by until you have children. It sure has been the best five years of my life!

Wow, that is truly amazing.... my god what a doll she was too as a baby, I never saw her referral photo. She's grown to be one beautiful girl, hasn't she? Congratulations on 5 years as a family. I hope in five years I'm finally home with Macey!
