Our Journey Begins... Feb 2006


We created our blog to keep our friends and family informed of each of the milestones in our life. We've decided to take on adoption as a way to grow our family and we are so excited! Chris and I have always talked about adoption and now it's coming true. This decision has brought us closer than ever before. We look forward to sharing our story with you every step of the way and finally sharing the result. A daughter!!!

We're thrilled to share with everyone that we have decided to adopt a child from China. We hope to have a daughter in the next 18 months or so. (Some of you thought pregnancy was bad. Ha!) For those of you who are not familiar with international adoption. China places thousands of children, primarily females, in foster care or orphanages every year because they are abandoned. We have chosen China for their culture, their history, their beauty and most of all we'd love to have a little girl.

It's not an easy process. It's an emotional and financial rollercoaster that you don't know when it will end. We are up for the ride and we're thrilled. We'll keep you posted.

We ask our family and friends for your support and prayers during the process. Thank you for sharing, caring and praying for us.

Love,

The Muñoz Family
