My baby (born 1988 in Korea) arrived home in July of 1990. She has a little boy 9 months old. The incredible blessings that continue to pour out on our family. :) Izaac is such a gift from God. My daughter went through difficult times in her junior and senior years of high school. She is now married and a young mommy. I love watching her as she worships her son. She has now seen herself in another, and the biological tie for her has meant so much. We have become closer than we've ever been.

My wonderful hubby was born in Korea in April of 1975, and joined his family in September of 1975. He is now the adoptive father of two wonderful boys, both born in Hong Kong, and both joined our family at age 5. Our oldest is now 10, and the youngest is 7.

My son was born in India in 1984. He came home to us about 14 months later. He's now all grown up and a Staff Sgt in the Army...in Iraq for the 2nd time. He really was a very easy kid to raise. He's always been eager to try new things and very fearless. Of course that fearlessness was often a source of anxiety for me. We moms do tend to worry. He's taught me so much about grabbing life by the horns and living in the moment.

Congratulations on your grandchild. Sounds like you are on your way to the next adventure of parenting.
