I went to China (actually to PHF!) this past summer to visit my little sponsor baby and the other kids there. Meeting the older orphans gave me this huge sense of urgency, as they only have a few short years left to be adopted. I think many people are leery of accepting these children into their families because of their age, but they are AMAZING kids who are in desperate need of homes of their own! Praise God for people like your friends who give them the chance to be loved, and may He call many more families to step up and do likewise!<br />Thanks for your post!Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15091980438930576876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2407066567804337680.post-8315197423718114532009-12-03T15:36:51.052-05:002009-12-03T15:36:51.052-05:00This is a beautiful testimony and a beautiful acco...This is a beautiful testimony and a beautiful account Emily. I can't tell you how many times I refer to your blog and your family when talking about adoption. For one so young, you are truly living out the Gospel in every way. You are an encouragement to us "old folks" through your blogging, designing blogs, and loving on your little sisters!<br /><br />Andrea (AWAA China family)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2407066567804337680.post-38987106778423241152009-12-03T13:03:34.969-05:002009-12-03T13:03:34.969-05:00Thank you for posting that Emily!!

My son (17yrs old) was trying to talk my husband and I into adopting an older child last night. He wouldn't have to push too hard :)<br />You are an amazing young lady.
