Macy Renee Xi

We are excited to introduce you to Xi Yun Man which will soon become Macy Renee Xi Allison. Her birthday is February 1, 2008 where she was born in Wuxi City, Jiangsu Province, China. We first saw Macy's picture on our agency's waiting child list on October 12th. We received her medical information while celebrating my birthday with family in Nashville. We contacted our pediatrician, family doctor, family members, and other adoptive families about the possibility of Macy joining our family. After much prayer and wise counsel, we knew that Macy was our daughter. We told our agency that we wanted to adopt Macy and 2 weeks later, China said that we were pre-approved to adopt her. We have been getting papers updated, travel information together, and preparing our home for Macy to join us.



We officially got word on December 28th that we were her parents. We sent our Letter of Accecptance back to China telling them that we agree with them and now we wait for travel approval. We expect to receive that in the next few days. We have tentative travel dates of March 4th - 19th. In order for us to travel with the group of other adoptive parents, we have to receive a form from the United States Immigration and Citzenship Services by February 10th. We know that the Lord knows the exact time for travel and we put our trust in Him and His perfect timing.



We will celebrate her 2nd birthday as a family this Monday. It breaks my heart to know that we are missing another birthday but we know that we will be together for all the ones to come.



We will put up pictures of her as soon as we scan them into the computer. She is adorable and she smiles just like the other two. :)
