Fifth Referral Day Anniversary

Five years ago today, we saw this beautiful face for the first time...

Jiang Ai Juan - from Dianjiang, Chongqing, China. She was 10 months old on referral day (these pictures were probably taken around 8 months old.)



Here is our referral video...

I can't believe it has been five years. I always say, "Time flies on this side of the wait."

No matter how many times I view referral videos, they always put me to tears! It's the most magical time ever! And again, when we started our adoption, Briana was the very first referral photo we've ever seen. Thanks for sharing in your joy! Happy Referral Anniversary!

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the video of you receiving your referral and photo. I've watched it 100 times before and it never gets old. I wish I had anything even remotely like that for my girls.

Congratulations!!! 5 wonderful years! And yes, they sure do fly this side of the wait.

I love to see Briana's referral pics as you can still see her beautiful little face in them. She's grown and yet still remained the same too.
