Another Late Night: Letter of Introduction and Family Photo Pages

Tonight was another late night in our home with mouse clicking steadily away. We wrote our "Letter of Introduction." For the orphanage and social workers in Taiwan, this letter is a first glimpse of our family. The letter helps match a child to us, and it's very possible that the birth mother will see the letter and photos. We described our family, interests, hobbies, reasons for wanting to adopt from Taiwan, and commitment to the child's upbringing. Obviously, this is really important! Kevin and I spent hours going through files of our digital photos looking for just the right ones to show what kind of things we like to do together as a family. We have a few questions for our agency to make sure we're doing it right. I'm beat. Gotta go bed. Gotta be at work in 7 hours. Night night.
