We woke to Thanksgiving and a delicious meal from Oliver's that Cash's babysitter, Audra, put in the fridge the day before. Cash made a China adventure themed centerpiece on the table, Ling Ling fed the dogs crackers, and we enjoyed the day, as groggy as we were, together.
After years of being unable to conceive a child, we started the journey of adopting early in 2006 and were officially logged into China's adoption waiting list on July 12th, 2006. On January 16th, 2007 we became the enamored parents of a biological son, Cash. On July 28th, 2011 we received the ecstatic news that our referral match from CCAA arrived at our adoption agency in San Francisco. This blog will document our story from referral to bringing our daughter home.

We Made it Home!
Well, the trip home WAS hilacious as predicted - very long. The kiddos did well, just a long (friggin) time to be in the air and on the road. I was dileriously tired when we got home; we were pooped and happy. Thanks to our great neighbor friends and family that decked out our place with decorations. Ling Ling giggled when she first saw our overly rambunctious pups jumping all over us. They made fast friends and she is already feeding them and seeking them out from across the room - amazing.

Thanks to you Linda. It has been with you and other support that has made this process so wonderful to share. We are home with colds and laying low now. Seems part of the process too. I think Ling Ling and Cash are re-tooling so they can take on Penngrove!
