This is our story for bringing our beautiful daughter home from China. We hope you enjoy the journey with us and share in our love for this awesome child God is placing in our family.
The story continues as now we are adding a sweet little boy to our family as well.
Now the story continues (again) with our next adoption. Not sure of who God will place in our family but we are moving forward and know He has already decided and we will soon find out.
The Red Thread
Once our eyes have been opened we can't pretend that we don't know what to do; for God who weighs our hearts and keeps our souls knows that we know and holds us responsible to act. Proverbs 24:12

Where in the world is Iris?
This is a map of China's providences. Iris lives in Hubei(green) which is central China. The next map is of Hubei. Iris lives in Jingmen City. We will fly into Wuhan which is the capital city of Hubie.
Thank you for posting the maps of where little Iris is. It made me feel closer to her because as I looked at the maps & imagined her there, the words to the song, Holy Spirit rain down kept coming to me. He is covering us in Overland Park & Leawood and Iris in Jingmen City!
Holy Spirit rain down, rain down! O Comforter and Friend How we need Your touch again! Holy Spirit rain down, rain down! Let Your power fall, let Your voice be heard, Come and change our hearts, As we stand on Your Word, Holy Spirit rain down.
No eye has seen, no ear has heard, No mind can know what God has in store. So open up heaven, open it wide, Over Your church, and over our lives.
May His Holy Spirt rain down on her and fill her with His love & peace right now. The Lord has great things in store for us and bringing Iris home soon, is His amazing Hands at work!!!
