Announcing...

We would like to share our great news with all of you. After much prayer and deliberation we would like to introduce you to (drum roll please...............)
Elliana Yuchun Miller!!!!!!!!!!





She was born on February 14, 2005 and is currently residing at the Social Welfare Institute of Yiwu City. She is approx 31 inches tall and weighs 22 pounds. We are so excited about our new little girl and hope to travel to get her by September. We selected her off of our agency's special needs list. She has been diagnosed with cerebral palsy but after much prayer, deliberation and consultation with doctors here in the greater Cincinnati area, we feel like that was a misdiagnosis and that we will be able to take care of her needs in our family. The girls are very excited about having a new sister. They are also very excited about the potential of meeting up with our friends in China so we are hoping to be able to work that out while we are there. Thank you all for the thoughts and prayers. If there are specific things that you would like to pray for...continued finances for travel to China, for Ellie to be healthy and get "caught up" developmentally and for us as we prepare in the next few months to travel. We are planning on trying to update our blog more regularly with family updates in addition to the adoption so please stay tuned.
