Hi. I came across your blog from Lovin' Much...I love your reason for your blog--ours reads very similar..to document our journey, but also to encourage other families to look into adoption. I also really like your header picture...too cute!!!

I'm sure that that movie
will make a big difference
in the view of adopting orphans.
