I am finally able to share the Adopteen images from the trip to Asia. This is part one as the girls enjoyed China. To view the images please click here.
Meeting these girls and having the opportunity to travel with them as many of them saw China for the first time was life changing. There were so many things I was not prepared for as I watched them try to take in all there was to see. To view the images please click here.
Imagine being born in a country, raised in a different one with people who do not look like you and then traveling back to a land you do not know or understand. There were so many questions that the girls struggled with as they tried to understand why they were abandoned, who they really were and where they fit in. It was an emotional and heart wrenching journey and yet they each came with their own strength and they helped each other through the adventure. To view the images please click here.
There was laughter and joy and many moments of pure hysterics. It was really interesting watching the Chinese watch the girls too. They could see that they looked Chinese, but their American style, mannerisms and bounding laughter left the quiet locals shaking their heads. To view the images please click here.
