Where are you now...?

Hello my Princess,
This is the question that pre-occupies my mind, all day, every day. Where are you now? Are you still in your birth mummy's tummy, are you laying in a box under a bridge, or outside a hospital where you are sure to be found, are you in an orphanage already? I don't know... I wish I did. I wish I knew where you are, wish I knew that you are safe and warm. Wish I was holding you already.


Here is a video of an orphanage in China. This is perhaps where you are now... or where you will soon be. And while the surroundings are not great, they are clean, the babies here look healthy, there seems to be many carers - and there are 'milk-shakes'.

Darling girl... where-ever you are, you are in my heart.

DTC!

For those of us in the China Adoption world... those three little letters mean everything.
D - Dossier
T - To
C - China.

Yes our dossier is in China! Sent on June 1 2006. Our photos, our letter, our life documented on paper is now in the hands of CCAA (China Centre for Adoption Affairs). This is a major, major milestone and warranted the pop of cork from a very nice bottle of Moet.

We are off to the dirty pub for dinner tonight - to celebrate with our friends, our community!

Next stop LID...
