An invisible red thread connects those who are destined to meet, regardless of time, place, or circumstance. The thread may stretch or tangle; but will never break. -Chinese proverb

but on a positive note (for the superstitious)
A ladybird landed on me this morning, while I was at dog training...
My red thread led me to my first daughter and red thread continues to link me to her country of birth. And the desire to give something back to her country of birth grows. So come on the journey with me as we look for ways to assist the children still in the orphanages.And pass the time while we wait for our second daughter to arrive!
Nikki and Magnolia are my daughter's special friends - see link below
My husband and I adopted our first daughter from China in 2003 and are ‘patiently’ waiting for her sister (LID June 2006).
I have been involved in Chinese adoption activities and organisations since 2001.
I have a strong interest in supporting children that remain in China. I have previously worked hard with other families to raise money for the new orphanage building at my daughter’s first home.
We also sponsor 6 young girls and 2 young boys, from the area our daughter is from, to go to school – education is not free in China and girls from poor families, particularly in rural areas, may only get one or two years schooling without support. We'd love to sponsor more girls to get an education and a future.
