Happy Birthday To Me!

Welp, today's my birthday.
I'm thirty seven years old!
man.
Anyway, I found out yesterday that Brian Stuy over at http://www.research-china.org/ has found Lili's "finding ad"!
This is a picture of her placed in the local paper to try and find her parents. They do this with every abandoned child. If the parents do not come forward, the gov't can go ahead and place them for adoption.
So, this should be the youngest picture we could ever have of her. Mr. Stuy said that it's a nice clear color photo of her. He also has the original newspaper that the ad is in, so he can get that to us too. So (as soon as we have mail again.......doesn't it figure? There's never any mail either the day of or the day before my birthday. ALL those cards and big fat checks being delayed!! Tragedy!) I'm going to put a check in the mail and hopefully we'll have Lili's picture in a couple weeks.
We're very excited about it. Who would've thought that a picture could mean so much?

Congratulations on Lili's finding ad. It was an emotional experience getting our Josie's ad and picture. It's the first time I saw my husband cry looking over all the abandoned babies that were in the same newspaper with our daughter. It hit us both hard.

On a happier note, Happy BIRTHDAY! Have a great week.
