This journal began as an attempt to capture the adoption quest for our daughter Alyzabeth An. It has since degenerated into shadowing our everyday family life while we endure "The Wait". We are not your typical "young" adoptive couple. To put it more bluntly - Ford may have to suspend further birthdays SOON just to maintain the age qualification! So welcome along as our American "daughter" of Chinese ancestry eventually joins mom Alyson (Maine) & dad Ford (Missouri) in the Sunshine state.
June 25, 2005 We mailed the application form to the Tallahassee office of the Chinese Children Charities. We will be notified as to if our application has been approved. Although the Chinese government will allow an adoptive parent to be 55 years old (I’m 53), we will feel better once we are officially approved to continue on in the adoptive process.
