Shortly after receiving our referral, we discovered that several other families were also adopting children from the very same orphanage as Lottie Lee. This is not common although many families can and eventually do find other families by way of blogs, yahoo groups, or facebook adoption groups; it is rare to be connected with a family who is waiting to meet their child and he/she is together with yours, in the same orphanage. We have been connected with 8 families whose children (all babies under 2 years old) have spent their first years together. It is absolutely nothing short of amazing in that 8 children will be living here in the US and remain connected for their lifetime. We are excited to share this journey with our CHI family and cannot wait to see our children grow!
We are thinking of some of our CHI family as they are preparing to travel to China to meet their lovely children! Some will be able to see and tour the orphanage, what an amazing gift! More amazing they may see Lottie Lee in the baby room, we hope, pray and cannot wait to hear all about their journey!
