Now that he is sharing information about his life in the orphanage, if he ever mentions Wu Zhong Hang, I'd sure like to hear. He was heavy on my heart and still is heavy on my heart as we prayed and advocated for 3 years, and now we know nothing of how he is doing. I'm also wondering if William, the other of the 3 boys in Wuhan, has he been adopted?Rose Duhaimehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08033338906168875164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8376432478180017896.post-28036756574957882392012-10-22T14:17:53.863-04:002012-10-22T14:17:53.863-04:00I have prayed for your sweet girl and I am overjoy...I have prayed for your sweet girl and I am overjoyed that you are so close to her now! Thank you for your encouraging comments! I did wrestle somewhat with knowing what to share of Cameron's story and how to do so in a positive way. I pray that his story will be a way God can help others.

Thank you for offering concrete advice on how to help a child who has experienced trauma, and you opened your heart in order to do so.<br /><br />Even though we have already adopted from China, our current adoption is different from the first, and I believe individual adoptions are as varied as the stars in the sky, regardless of whether or not you've done it before.<br /><br />Our daughter showed signs of trauma as a baby when we adopted her. The signs are slowly fading as she ages. We don't know what to expect with our daughter-to-be, except that the transition will undoubtedly be hard for her and for us. What I do know is that her life does not begin with us. It began in China the day she was conceived, and I thank God for her and her birth mother, and for allowing us the privilege of being her parents.<br /><br />I also know you have prayed for our daughter, and even though I don't know you well, I know you have given us a precious gift through your prayers. Thank you for your gift!The Stein Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10203761518172934981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8376432478180017896.post-71441482508691033902012-10-21T15:06:47.297-04:002012-10-21T15:06:47.297-04:00I'm not sure I've read your blog before, b...I'm not sure I've read your blog before, but 'wow' what a powerful post!Adrian Robertahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04015366261443098429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8376432478180017896.post-5696361587227561612012-10-19T23:17:01.573-04:002012-10-19T23:17:01.573-04:00What a beautiful, well-written, emotional post.
