Well....it was early in July and Brent had taken a week of holidays. We went down to Seattle for a couple of days to do a little sightseeing, relaxing, and of course shopping!! We came back to Vancouver for a day (July 9, 2007) to do laundry and get ready to go up to Kelowna to visit Brent's sister and family. Wouldn't you know it....we received a call from the adoption agency that very day. There were sooo many tears of happiness!! (I think Brent thought I was nuts!!!) Apparently our proposals were in Victoria and we would soon have information and pictures of our baby in the next day or so!!!! We headed up to Kelowna anyways (we left Tanya's number with the adoption agency), and even before we got there they had called (July 10, 2007). Well, I called them immediately and she said to check my email as our proposal had been sent. What a special moment, Brent's sister Tanya was with us when we opened up her picture on her computer!!! What a darling little girl, with such huge brown eyes!!! I got busy on the computer and forwarded these pics to many of our friends and family.....of course Tanya started printing off photos of her as well - I needed on to sleep with that night!!! Brent and I were both sooo happy and soo excited!!!
Her name is Jiang Xue Yuan. In these photos she is about 5 months old and her birthday is November 19th, 2007 (a day after the twins'!!)
Stay tuned for more on "The White's Adventure to China"
