Presenting Miss Jaida Kate !





We are in love all over again. We have accepted the referral for a beautiful little girl living in Guangdong Province, PRC. She was born on March 5th, 2006, just 25 days before her sister, Kennedy Joy. We are so excited to go to China again and bring home another precious daughter to add to our family.

I must take this opportunity to thank a few people who, in some way, contributed to making this happen for us.

Bob and Yulin and Family Outreach International (our agency). They matched us with this beautiful child. We are forever grateful.


Dr. Tim and nurse Nancy in Calgary. Thank you so much for your input. It meant a lot that you took the time to help us in such short notice. Your expertise and willingness to help meant so much to us.

Dr. Aggie Lee in B.C. I knew I could count on you for both a professional opinion and seeing this little girl through the eyes of an adoptive parent. Thank you so much. xoxo

Dr. Tim and Dr. Huy in P.E.I. for taking the time to look at our file and reassuring us that it looked fine. We appreciate you both taking the time from your very busy professional lives to help us understand the medical file of our daughter.



And finally, thank you to everyone who has supported us on our second journey to China! We cannot wait to finally meet this beautiful little girl!

so excited for your family..we followed your journey to Kennedy and know some of your fellow travelmates and we too are a FOI family. Miss Jaida Kate is adorable and we are so happy for your whole family. I often wonder how Kennedy is doing and was sad when your blog closed. Looking forward to following along as you prepare to bring Jaida Kate home.
