Our story of bringing home our amazing daughter from China in April of 2017. The road to and through adoption is a difficult one paved with loss. This video depicts the joy of bringing our daughter into our family without really sharing the hard stuff. However, make no mistake about it, the hard stuff was worth it.

We used the HOLT adoption agency and adopted a baby from China back in 1990. She was incredibly gifted and excelled at everything she was interested in. She mastered The violin the oboe the bassoon and a special Chinese stringed instrument. she is in her third year residency for pediatric neurosurgery . this has an eight year to nine year residency program . I wish we were young enough to do this again because the years have absolutely flown past on a rocket!

I like your family very much. I am a seven-year-old Chinese girl, my parents abandoned me when I was 2 years old, I live alone in China now, I am eager to get parents' love,but I can't find my parents. Can you help me? I would greatly appreciate it if you can help me！

I've been watching these orphans in Vietnam & was so happy to find your video of adoption. I cried from how beautiful it is. The second you met your new daughter, there was instant love of a mom with her child. Your other daughter was so excited too! Seeing her smile with her new family was absolutely awesome! It's amazing what the power of love can do. Thank you for sharing this

So good to know she's found a lovely forever home. Would be great to see a follow up in the future of her life with you all. Take care. 💖

@sharonenos1370 5 лет назад

I love this video. I also love your later videos because they all show the silly interactions you have with your daughters. A mom that will make faces and act silly with her children. These are priceless. Your elder daughter is a wonderful big sister and she has the most beautiful, amazing eyes. Hopefully most of the hard stuff is behind you. God bless you and may all of you have joyful lives.

I'm not crying... you're crying! (OK, it's me.) My own two daughters (also adopted from China) are in their 20s, and sometimes I wish I was young enough to do it again... and then I'll go down a rabbit hole watching adoption videos. Yours is beautiful! I had to go look up "Hello Lovely" because it's absolutely perfect in this video.

@megandanielle7862 6 лет назад

zhenmin930301 it’s not about “white people adopting Asian kids” adoption isn’t about race, it’s about feeling commanded to add a child to your family, sometimes it just happens to be a child from Asia cause the need there is so so great!

@nanyanguo1 4 года назад

@@megandanielle7862 Asia is not just China, .There are also India phillipine , sri lanks , Cambodia ,etc . . What about S America continent Do all these other places have lesser need ? No they too desperately wish more would come to adopt their unwanted babies n children. So many choices really for those who want to adopt and it is always a carefully considered choice made after doing their homework . To be honest about it , that China is the no 1 choice for most says alot about the outcome of their homework ie it is also about they like everything they see and want about adopting from this country
