1/8 New life, new blog

Now that our journey to China is complete, I have decided to continue the story that began in Guangzhou in December 2007. I plan to write about the experiences of our daughter as she begins her new way of life in America.

She brings an unusual perspective to the table in that she is both a new immigrant and newly adopted. I hope to focus on the greater issues of adjusting after adoption and how she negotiates the cultural differences between China and America. As a family, we want to celebrate her Chinese heritage and all the influences that have made her into the person that she is.
