EXCITING NEWS FOR THE THORNLEY FAMILY!!

As some of you know, George and I were originally adopting a daughter from Vietnam and a daughter from Ethiopia at the same time. Vietnam closed down on Sept. 1st, 2008 (our dossier had been in Vietnam since Nov. 12, 2007). Since that time, we decided to wait and see how the adjustment was from one child to two. Of course there has been some normal challenges, but overall, it has been GREAT! So...our dossier is now in Ethiopia for our last daughter. It has been there for awhile. We expect to have a referral around Christmas time. We are requesting a daughter between the ages of 2-4 years old. We are very excited. She should be home by the end of next summer!

We are blessed to have the privilege of raising our two beautiful girls! They bring us so much joy and happiness.

Please pray for a smooth adoption journey!

Diana and George
