This blog is dedicated primarily to our beautiful daughter Raina. "Brothers and sisters, consider the farmer, who waits patiently for the rain..."

Official LOA
Well, this is the document that says it all. It is the official Letter Of Approval stating that we are the chosen parents to adopt Li Hua Yu. She is our Raina... and we are her family... and printed on this piece of paper that came from China are the words that say it's so. It is the most beautiful piece of paper I've ever seen.
My name is Jay. I am a 37 year old guy, elated to be married to my beautiful bride of 15 years, Laura. We have two sons, Evan and Colin, who are just about the most amazing two boys that anyone, anywhere, has ever known. We have a beautiful daughter named Raina, whom we have recently adopted from China - and quite simply, she has completely lit up our world. I am a bass-playing worship leader at Parkview Christian Church who happens to earn a living as a communications technician in the mighty city of Chicago. I make a very human attempt at following my savior Jesus Christ as closely as I can, so I am therefore very thankful for His grace. He laid down His life in order to purchase mine, and gave me eternal life in exchange for my trust in Him. He has proven Himself faithful to me throughout my life, which is why I hold fast to Him.
