We received Gracie at the Guangzhou Adoption Center this afternoon. It was very emotional for the entire family. Gracie Shu has had a difficult day; she traveled 6 hours yesterday to spend the night in the Guangzhou orphanage, and was brought to the adoption center by a local adoption worker and an office worker from her orphanage. She is beginning to grieve, and seems very frightened. We couldn't be more thankful to have her in our arms! Please pray for peace, rest, and comfort.
