Welcome friends, readers or anyone else who stumbled upon here!
Thank you for visiting my site. I am a believer, a mother, a professional, an author, and an advocate for children.
After living in China for almost five years, I published my memoir, Silent Tears; A Journey of Hope In A Chinese Orphanage. The interest in my story makes it possible for me to continue my passion to make a difference in the lives of children in the orphanages of China.
Please visit my blog where interspersed with splashes of my sassy posts, I strive to bring the adoption community together with links to news articles, special interest stories and updates on the children in my book. Visit me on Facebook or write me an email. I love to hear your comments or share in your life experiences!
