Here she is! After the three year wait I finally received the call today at 11:43am from my adoption agency. She is beyond beautiful. Just look at those cheeks! What's not to love?
Her given name is Lin Ying Lin
Her birthday is 9/25/2007
She lives in the province of Guangxi
at the Yulin Social Welfare Institute (orphanage)

Needless to say, I'm a very proud Mommy. We will likely travel in Early September to get her, hopefully before her first birthday. I will find out a little more information about her in the next few days. Thank you all for your love and patience as we waited for this precious little one. What a miracle! That's all I can think to say right now and of course, Thank you GOD!

CONGRATULATIONS!!! I saw your blog on RQ tonight as I was checking out new referrals. I'm so excited to see a Yulin baby. Our Hope is also from there and has been home for a year. We have a referral photo in that same little chair. :) Feel free to send me a note and check out our blog if you want to see/learn more. I'd love to hear from you. You're going to have a fabulous trip. For sure join the Guangxi and Yulin Yahoo groups. Also, see if you can contact Grace and Hope for Children as they sponsor some of the foster care for Yulin SWI and may be able to give you more information/photos. YEA! YEA! YEA!
Blessings - Beth

Congratulations! She is absolutely adorable. I saw your blog on RQ and I had to comment because our daughter is from Yulin SWI as well! We traveled last Sept to bring her home.
Oh, WOW - She is EXCEPTIONAL!! And, it took every single minute of the Wait, not one more or less, to bring you two together. Hard as it's been, that's the basic fact.
Congratulations, Mommy!!
REJOICE!!
She is precious!

Your daughter is beautiful. You are about to embark on the most wonderful journey beyond what you ever imagined. I know. I returned Mar 26, 08 with my daughter. I am a single mom too. Life is sweeter than ever. I went to the China adopt talk and saw the lists of babies. God bless your journey. Enjoy every minute.

She is absolutely a gift from God, special for you in every way! I always tell my boys that they are the bestest present God could have ever given me...it's true! He waited till just now, just for her! She is beautiful! I can't wait to see all the digiscrap pages all filled up with her photos in the coming year. May God Bless you and keep you, may He make His face to shine upon you and give you PEACE!
I've been searching for an email link for you and can't find one. My wife and I have just been referred a daughter at the Yulin SWI, and in her picture, our daughter is sitting in the same chair yours is. We were wondering if you'd be willing to correspond with us, as we know nothing about Yulin City or the Guangxi Province and would love to talk to an American who has emerged from this long Adoption Process on the other side of things.
