A Week Ago Today...




Our lives changed forever! We received the call from Great Wall that they had our baby! Now we are just waiting for the CCAA to send our our travel assignments. Elizabeth's orphanage is located in Jiangxi Province, near the city of Nanchang.

Jiangxi is known as the "porcelain city" with a history of 1700 years of porcelain-making. It is a subtropical climate (lucky me and my hair)! It is situated on the eastern bank of the Yangtse River.

The orphange HengFeng Social Welfare Institute seems very nice, but old. From what I have been told it is a very poor orphanage, but they take very good care of the children. Here are some pictures:

There is always tons of information on the web about everything! I found a Yahoo Group that is just for HengFeng parents! They have so much information!

That's it for now!
