I was doing some research online about adoptions and came across this table of statistics on adoptions from China to the US. I must be very emotional today because this was just so profound to me. My baby is so much more than a number...but that little number "1" at the end of 3400 is my daughter. She is my world, she is our world. I wish more people would realize how amazing adoption is. Her life has changed several lives for the better, and her gift to us is priceless. How glad I am that we were determined enough to pursue what was in our hearts. We love you Faith Hengsi Brown.
