On May 21, 2010 we saw Emma Grace's picture for the first time. We knew we were getting close to being matched, and we thought May would be our month. The shared list came out in China, and we didn't get a call. We spent the next 3 days a little depressed that we would have to wait another month for the possibility to be matched. Once a file is matched to a family, you have 72 hours to lock it or release it. Someone from our agency just happened to go into work on a Saturday morning (72 hours after the first list) and while there he decided to check the list. There was Emma.... and we were at the top of the list. A perfect match!! I can't imagine having a better fit for our family! We are so thankful for this sweet little girl and we stand in awe at all the amazing things God has done since her adoption!
These were the pictures we received on May 21, 2010. She was approximately 6-7 months old in these pictures.
