About Us

We are...

Jay and Brooke.  
A former pastor, now financial advisor 
and a stay-at-home, home schooling mom.  
Two handsome biological boys.  
One Chinese daughter.  
One American Eskimo dog.  
Two stray mutts.

Attempted to adopt a daughter from Nepal in 2010 but were shut down mid-process.  Completed our adoption from China Special Needs program in 2012.  Our adoption story has been a mess but it is all worth it.   This blog started as our journal for our daughter and has developed into so much more.

Welcome!

Home with our daughter in June 2012.
