Who would have known that one year ago this little girl would be placed in our arms and change our family forever. This has been a week of reflection. One year ago on September 17, 2006 we left our hotel for the long ride to the Chongqing Children's Home. There we walked up three flights of stairs to where our baby girl awaited us.It was the end of one journey and beginning of another. We waited around until they called our names, then we walked up to the gate to be handed this baby who became our 5th child. Precious child, her world, the only one known to her was about to be rocked. This is a time of celebration. Shoshannah has brought so much joy and love into our family. It seems as if she has always been with us. We are looking forward to many more years of celebrations.
