Our group

We are with a California group of 12 families in all, including five
families bringing their older Chinese children. Most of those are
between 5 and 7, adopted right around the "golden days" of Chinese
adoption, before the slow down of the last several years. From a peak
of 6,000 adoptions to the U.S. a few years ago, China sent about half
that number last year and will send even less this year. Hence my
four-year wait. It is nice to have some kids with us on the trip, and
they seem very excited about getting baby sisters (and in one case a
brother).
