" We witness a miracle every time a child enters into life. But those who make their journey home across time and miles, growing within the hearts of those who wait to love them, are carried on the wings of destiny and placed among us by God's very own hands" --Kristi Larson

Orphanage Visit

(Matt's entry this time) I visited the orphanage Thursday morning.  We decided it was best for just me (Matt) to go so Lina was not reminded of her special Foster Grandma whom she was attached to.  It was a very hard journey to take.  There was lots of emotion involved knowing that this was the place my little girl had spent so much of her life and that she was now leaving behind. I got to talk with an orphanage employee to learn more about Lina's finding day and to learn a little about what her life was like both here at the orphanage and in foster care. We gathered as much information as we could. We hope this will be helpful to explain to her as much as we can about her background when the time comes.
