If you don't know me, I have always been a HUGE Disney and Mickey fan. So much so that I had Bryan wear a special order tux vest with black embroidered Mickey Mouse faces all over it for our wedding. Then, we went to Disney World for our Honeymoon. Plus I've been to Disneyland Paris and will be going to Disneyland California during this upcoming vacation. And Ray's room is already decorated with Mickey Mouse. We even sent him a Mickey Mouse yo-yo when WACAP went to Thailand at the end of October.
Well, we got an email via WACAP from a TRC social worker regarding our pictures yesterday.
From a social worker at the TRC: "I told Ray about his coming family he seems very happy with them and the idea that they will become family. He draw lots of pictures for his coming Mommy & Daddy. You know what, Ray loves Mickey mouse and I was very glad when I saw the Mickey mouse on his coming Daddy's pull over also on their chair at home. Ray had a big smile when I show him their photos."
I'm so very excited that Ray loves Mickey Mouse. It is these little connections that make us even more positive that this is God's plan for us and for Ray. We cannot wait to have him in our family!

Hello all family and friends!
With great excitement, we started our adoption journey in August 2008. We are now first time parents through adoption of an 8-year-old son from Thailand. We have chosen to build our family through the adoption of a son from Thailand because this is where we feel God is leading us right now.
It took 1 year and 9 months to bring Ray home and it was totally worth it!
We appreciate all of your love and support. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Why are we adopting internationally and not domestically?
While we think adopting domestically is extremely important, our hearts are drawn to the waiting children in other countries. Some of our closest friends and relatives have adopted, are adopted themselves, or are planning to adopt internationally. This has been a wonderful experience for them, as I am confident our adoption will be for us.
Why are we adopting from Thailand?
The number one reason is simply...that's where our son is living right now. Also, the Thai people are extremely laid back and friendly and the adoption process is very straight forward in Thailand and has been around for decades so there should be no surprises or corruption. After researching our other options, the requirements to adopt from Thailand fit our requirements. If we decide to adopt again, we will reevaluate the different countries and domestic programs.
