Then and Now

 Bei waiting for his Forever Family to come and pick him up in China
 
 He could never imagine what was in store for him and how much we would love him.
 
 He was 27 months old when we picked him up in May 2008 and weighed 16 lbs.   The little girl next to him is Sarah who was adopted by an Ohio family. 
 
 I went to China with fear of the unknown enveloping every cell of my body.  I had never parented before and had no idea what was about to happen to my life.
 
 Love happened!  This little police officer has redefined love for me.  
 
 I never knew you could love someone so much. 
 
Bei is everything I ever wanted in a child...minus the whining...but you get what I mean.
