Because we have PA!

We are overjoyed to introduce you to our beautiful daughter!
Here's her referral picture. It's pretty old...but oh, so adorable!


Here's her birthday picture...
She turns 2 next month and is currently residing in central China. We haven't yet come up with the perfect name for our precious Treasure...other than Johnson!

"We learned that orphans are easier to ignore before you know their names. They are easier to ignore before you see their faces. It is easier to pretend they're not real before you hold them in your arms. But once you do, everything changes."

    She is SOOO precious!
    Congrats again to you all...

    When I looked at her I thought of the name Esme or Esmé... so out of curiosity I looked up the name. It means loved.

    Shared cos I thought that was interesting. Love to you all. Lisa xx

    She is so adorable and perfect! I would guess you are sticking with a K name. I love the names Kemri, Karson and Kelynn. May God Bless y'all!!

    she is a cutie and just the age of our little 'un..actually a little younger. Now comes the hard part...the hurry and wait part. We are on day 43 of the LOA wait.

    Oh, your little sweetie is a month older than mine! We're waiting for her file to be finished (she's a camp kid) so we can't submit LOI quite yet, but we're getting started on the rest of the process. Congratulations, she's darling!
