U.S. Adoption
 

 
Carissa
 
We made it home on Valentine’s day. Carissa is a total joy and only stops smiling when I try to put her down for a nap or bedtime… I think she thinks we will disappear!
 
THANK YOU! WE APPRECIATE ALL YOU DO. YOU SAVED ONE LITTLE GIRL AND SHE WILL HAVE A GOOD LIFE.
 
Carissa loves playing with her daddy and brother too. I think she was afraid she would not get a daddy as she watched the other girls daddy's play with them in China with this sad look on her face… Faith, our older daughter, is now adjusting better as she had a few moments (most of the time) In China when she was very worried as Carissa only wanted momma and she wanted the sister she had waited for so long for and she felt Carissa did not like her… poor kid. As you know we love Kathy. She is a jewel… She took Faith shoe shopping and I think they looked in every store for hours…. Bob was also very good. I enjoyed him but he made me miss my son so much! Kathy was so prepared and we saw other agencies people who were acting like they did not have the papers they needed or were doing paperwork when we got our kids instead…. I am thankful God led us to Heritage and to our Carissa. We know we are done with our adoptions now… but we are so thankful to have met such a fine agency to end this journey of adoption for our family. Keep up the good work. I know we adoptive parents drive you crazy at times… but my daughter alone is worth the effort.


Dawn, Dave, Faith, Stephen and forever home, Carissa Hope YuFeng
