Cyber Sisters in Opryland

During the past three years I have been very fortunate to become close friends with a small group of extraordinary women whose families were logged into the China adoption program in July of 2006 - the same month as Gary and I. These families are all using the same agency as us, so some of us will definitely travel to China together. There are about a dozen women who are active in our group and six of us were able to meet in Nashville. These incredibly strong and beautiful women have become some of my dearest friends. It was surreal to sit down and talk to some of them face to face after three years of sending thousands of emails back and forth and sometimes talking on the phone. We have given each other so much support during this seemingly endless wait for our daughters... sharing lots of laughter and tears along the way. Someday we will share in each others' joy as we receive our referrals and then when we travel to China to bring our daughters home. I'm looking forward to many reunions over the years with my Cyber Sisters and our daughters.
