One year ago today I got the "call" that would completly change my life forever. At 15:45 at work the call came from my family coordinator Leah at AWAA stating that she was looking at a picture of my daughter. She told me that she had no hair and brown eyes and was born on 04/10/07 and that she was from the Jiangxi province and had been in an orphanage called the Wanzai Social Welfare Institute and was on the chubby side. She also let me know that they would be fedexing her pictures and bio information and I should receive it the next day. They were right on all counts weren't they? As soon as I got off the phone with Leah I immediately called and let my mom know. I don't think you could have dynamited the smile off my face that day. This is the first picture that I ever got to see of Jocelyn.
This is the most recent picture that I have of Jocelyn. My has she grown!!! Her hair has grown some too.
