Our Referral!
June 27, 2005
Today we recieved a call from our Social Worker at 1:30 pm. We thought we would find out today because people were posting on the internet that they had received their referrals. Both, Cean and I were finding it very difficult to work. Then the call!
Sarah, our social worker said, "You have a daughter". I quickly found Cean and we put Sarah on speaker phone in my office. We were both shaking. She told us our babies name was Xian Cheng and that she was in foster care in the province of Hubei. She also told us that Xian had just celebrated her 1st birthday on June 24, the Friday before. That was all the information that she had but we set up a meeting for the following day because Xian's packet with photos was being overnighted to Traverse City. We were so happy and excited. We called a bunch of our family and began spreading the word of our new daughter. Now, we had to come up with a name!
