When we traveled to China, we traveled with only two other families. I became very close with one of them and they happened to be in St. Louis this weekend for a reunion for our adoption agency. I knew they were coming and I have been counting the days since their arrival. I posted about this before, but going through the adoption experience with another family is very intimate and you become close friends in a short amount of time. I love this family and I can't even explain how excited I was to see them again. What a special treat for me and my family. I can only hope we all stay in close contact and see them again in the future. We had a great time at our house and the kids all did wonderfully together, giving the grownups time to chat and catch up. I am such an emotional gal, it was another tearful goodbye for me as our friends left but I am so grateful for this reunion and the opportunity for us all to get together.

Thank you G family from the bottom of my heart for sharing your evening with us. I will always have a place in my heart for each of you and it was so wonderful to see you all again. I truly hope we all keep in touch and our children continue to know each other.
Lots of love- Jen
