China Adoption: Naomi's GOTCHA DAY and Adoption Story

We traveled with our three boys and my mom to China to adopt our 2 year old daughter, Naomi who was born with Spina Bifida - Meningocele. She had a surgery when she was two months old and is doing really well. We adopted through CCAI and highly recommend them! We entered the adoption process in November of 2016, received her file in September 2017 and traveled in August 2018 to finally bring her home. We first traveled to Beijing to see the Great Wall of China, Tiananmen Square, Forbidden City, etc. We then traveled to Zhengzhou in the Henan Province to receive Naomi and then on to Guangzhou to complete the visa and immigration paperwork. We tried to include as many moments of our 18 day trip as we possibly could as well as a glimpse into how life has been since returning home. This has been a beautiful and, at times, trying journey but the joy in our lives because of this little girl can't be replaced. We love you Naomi!
