Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

we were in a civil affairs office in Nanning, China. We're celebrating Rachel's "Gotcha Day"! It's been an amazing year!

FYI: it's a 7 part post as blogger will only allow 5 pictures per post and I had too many pictures to share! If you hit the "home" button at the bottom of the page it will take you to the other posts.

Enjoy!

Lisa..I am looking forard to reading your latest post....and will do so later.

But, you need to know......Blogger does NOT limit your pictures per post.......just per click on the "add photo" button.........click on my blog below and scroll down about to sometime in Feb.....and you will see.

After the first five are loaded......you just go and click on "add photo" and add five more...and five more.....and five more.....ad nauseum.......trust me!

Congrats!!

Lisa,
Congratulations! Isn't it amazing how the little people who were so frightened at first, now seem like they have been with you forever? it is hard for me to remember life without any of my four before they came home. I really enjoyed seeing your photos and memories
God Bless you all.
