We are John and Mandy and have been married 10 years. We have been blessed with 2 bio kids Zarra 8 and Zane 5. Ever since I can remember I have wanted to adopt a little Asian girl. With the love and support of my husband, we took a leap of faith and went for it. We are now blessed with a sibling group of a 4 year old girl and 2 year old boy. They are half way across the world, we can’t wait to go and scoop them up. We hope to be traveling to get them in January, not happening, lets hope for March now. This blog is set up for family and friends to follow our journey as we complete our dream come true.
