3 years ago...

Sui Chun Yu
became more then a girl in China.

She became a daughter,
a sister,
a friend.

~~

3 years ago today
we met our baby girl 

for the very first time!

Sui Chun Yu

became

Jorja Noelle Anderson

I'll never forget the feeling when we sat on the couch with our friend Rebecca,

waiting for Ms. Jorja!

There were other adoptive parents in the room but it seemed 

that time stood still when I saw

two ladies and a little girl came off the elevator.

They turned to another room away from us.

I told Rebecca,

"That is her!"

She said,

"No, your daughter is almost 5.

That little one is more like 2.

Look at her she's tiny."

I looked at Rebecca and said,

"Rebecca, that is my daughter. 

Please go check."

Sweet Rebecca went to check things out.

To her surprise 

that was Jorja!

What can I say - a momma knows!

our first meeting went incredibly well,

she cried a little bit -

until I pulled out the lollipops! 

She took a shining to Daddy right away!

And never wanted to leave his side!

What a blessing our little Jorja is!
