Journey To Mia Lynn.....: January 2009
http://journeytomialynn.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
I have learned to hold all things loosely, so God will not have to pry them out of my hands. - Corrie ten Boom. I Knew I Loved You. Tuesday, January 20, 2009. Barack Obama has been inaugurated as our 44th President and without incident, Praise the Lord! I for one have not even made it to the shower today and it is noon! I didn't want to miss any of the big day. I know, we have a DVR but I felt compelled to watch it real time. So, off to the shower for me! 18 months down and how many to go? Nope We are no...

Voice of the Voiceless: Going so well
http://voicelessorphans.blogspot.com/2012/02/going-so-well.html
Voice of the Voiceless. Thursday, February 2, 2012. As poetic as it would be to leave that last post as my last post, there are still things out there to say. I didn't want to leave everyone hanging as to how Melia has been now that she's home. Let me just say that of the 4 children I have, this little girl has been the most delightful and easiest baby during the "first week home". She doesn't fit any adoption book or story that I've ever heard of. The only one who seems to having to tough go of it is ou...

Voice of the Voiceless: October 2011
http://voicelessorphans.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Voice of the Voiceless. Friday, October 14, 2011. We got our LOA! The LOA is a letter of acceptance from China that moves us one step closer to bringing Melia home! On Monday we can now send in a form to the USCIS for another approval from our government to bring Melia home. Our agency estimates travel to China in 3 MONTHS! That means we could be meeting our little one and a half year old right after the first of the year! Our life is going to be turning upside down very soon! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

A Chosen Family: November 2006
http://chosenfamily.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
A Family by Choice. Tuesday, November 28, 2006. Thanks, The View. Featured foster children today, in support of National Adoption Month. While I am fully committed to my own agency's China program, I have to wonder whether or not the husband and I would ever consider fostering and eventually adopting a foster child. I'd sure like to think we would. Posted by Merrin Donahue at 10:26 AM. Thursday, November 23, 2006. Posted by Merrin Donahue at 8:49 AM. Tuesday, November 14, 2006. Problem: My favorite word ...

A Family by Choice. Friday, March 31, 2006. Holy Paperwork, Batman! Wow I mean wow. We received even more paperwork today. Email is a wonderful thing, but oh my! Posted by Merrin Donahue at 2:06 PM. Thursday, March 30, 2006. It's All Part of the Fun. Did you know that there are written characters that contain up to 64 strokes? Can you imagine writing a note? It could take days. We both plan on learning at least enough to get by; you know, "Where's the bathroom? Posted by Merrin Donahue at 11:15 AM. Yeah,...

Life is busy, but good. Madison my niece has been here for the past three weeks. It has been great having her here! Not even wanting to think about her going home sooner than later! Wow, that's some great pizza! She wears it well, let me tell you! We went to Discovery Zone LegoLand and spent the day. That was awesome!

Voice of the Voiceless. Wednesday, July 27, 2011. Another round of paperwork. Well, we spent the majority of the evening going through another round of paperwork. A placement agreement, the DS-230, a Foreign Travel release document. yada yada yada. And let's not forget the last invoice from Holt. (gulp! One month sounds reasonable to me.

I have learned to hold all things loosely, so God will not have to pry them out of my hands. - Corrie ten Boom. I Knew I Loved You. Tuesday, April 21, 2009. I don't have much information, but just heard from Sara Lane that they are at the hospital with their little Mia. She is sick and I really don't know much more than that. As soon as I know anything more I will update. For now, I just wanted to ask that you all pray for her healing! Click on title of this post to hop over to the Lane's blog). Having s...
