Okay, I know this doesn't seem like a huge accomplishment to some, but look at my girl STANDING next to the chair. Could she look any more sweet? She has such a smile and she is so proud of herself. She was able to stand for about a minute, and even had her feet flat (she usually stands on her toes when she doesn't have her braces on). Oh how I can't wait to have her standing and walking around here someday.
Then she and Daddy had to have a "Cheese" picture together. She loves her Daddy!
Still no news on the adoption front. We have sent in our new and improved homestudy to USCIS. I will be surprised if we get approval without more changes--it has been their pattern to request changes more than one time.
I know it's all in God's hands...just wish he'd give us a clue about how this was all going to turn out. Our agency has not heard anything about her file for over a month. So we are still waiting on that front, too.
Graycen's eyes have done really great after her surgery. We go back in November to see if it was her last eye surgery.
I will post as soon as we hear anything about our adoption. I hope to be shouting from the rooftops soon!

Oh Sheryl...I'm in tears from that first picture. I LOVE her smile and yes-she looks so very proud. What an awesome sight to see her standing tall. We have got to get together soon. We're still praying for you about the adoption. God will make His plan very clear soon, my friend.
Love & hugs,

Sheryl, What an awesome site! Could you post that picture on the yahoo group as well as in snapfish. I want to print out some new pictures for the girls of all their china sisters and that would be an awesome picture to have. Give Graycen a big hug from the NJ girls. What a great job. Her hard work is paying off.
Sheryl,
