Please help us welcome our new daughter, Rachel Jing Yu, born 10/19/06!! She's 20 months younger than Hannah. She's from the same province in China that Hannah is from. We were actually in China adopting Hannah when she was born! How weird is that?
We're hoping to travel in January or February to bring her home. Our website will be www.journeytome.com username/password: RachelR
Please pray that she will stay healthy, happy and loved and that her heart will be open to us. Attachment difficulties always scare me to death.

Congratulations, Lisa!! I know that feeling 
And Rachel and I share a birthday! May the North American Martyrs (her patrons!) intercede for you, and my Saint Joseph guide you as you finish the process to bring her home.

Congratulations!
We will add you to our lunchtime prayers...we're praying for another family to bring their little guy home from Central America. We'll pray that Rachel comes home soon, too!
