17th Briana Day Anniversary

17 years ago today, Doug and I met our beautiful Briana (Jiang Ai Juan) for the first time in Chongqing, China at 4PM in the afternoon (China time) on July 30th, 2007.

It was an emotional, joyous, overwhelming, terrifying day for all of us...

We cannot imagine our lives without our beautiful Briana. She was our miracle and gift on that day - and she still is.

 I cannot believe our almost 18 year old will be starting college in 5 weeks. How did 17 years pass so quickly?

Here is our China travel video once again...

 

 Here's to 17 amazing years.
