Monique and family,

Many, many congratulations!

Our DD, from Guangdon, is also named XiaoYue, meaning "little moon." Her name has a special meaning relating to her finding. Make sure you ask when your receive her in China.

Our DD, now 10, is sassy, stubborn, and loving, just a wonderful daughter. I still remember getting her referral in June 2001.

Best wishes for a safe and speedy travel from one "moon" family to another,

Jane

Congrats from another Jiangxi/RQ mom. Your referral pics bring back memories. Your daughter's head looks just like ours did at referral. At 3 years old, she now has black, curly (yes, curly) hair halfway down her back. All those curls were too much for the nannies to manage. I hope you enjoy your journey as much as we do!

Hello from Canada,
Congratulations! You must be thrilled. We also have a daughter from the same orphanage. We went to China in December 2010 along with five other couples. All the babies had been very well looked after and were in very good health when we received them. Our daughter is doing amazingly well. If you would like to see photos, please e-mail me at rjburton@primus.ca

Congrats to you and your family. We too adopted a baby girl from Jiangxi and have been home 9 months. It was the most amazing trip and we now have a beautiful baby girl in our lives. She was well taken care of by her foster family. Enjoy the time, it is a crazy but fun ride.
