		<description>Hi Nicole,

Google analytics doesn&#039;t lie.  We&#039;re here.  We lurk.  We&#039;re shy.  

I love your posts.  I found your blog from a link to a link to a link that led to your diaper sprayer post.  Because of your blog, I found the link to your sister-in-law&#039;s blog, which I also find adorable, and a whole realm of adoption-related-blogs where I can read about people&#039;s stories.  Thank you for letting the world in on this very un-talked-about topic, it&#039;s been a very interesting way to live vicariously through all of you as I roll the idea of adoption around in my own mind.  I haven&#039;t adopted.. yet.. but it&#039;s something I always assumed I would do someday.

Side note on myself:  I&#039;m a white girl from the midwest who grew up knowing I would have Chinese babies.  We don&#039;t have any Chinese people in my town, and I never really thought about it, I think it&#039;s just something that God placed in my heart even as a young child.  One day I grew up and moved away and got married.. to a Chinese man.  Maybe I&#039;ll birth my own Chinese babies.. maybe I&#039;ll adopt some.. I still feel drawn to the idea.

Back to your blog, thank you for posting your story, for your humility, for your love of Christ.  I appreciate your sincere heart.  Just know that you are sharing with people who are truely interested or we wouldn&#039;t be reading.  We&#039;re just shy.  We do listen.</description>

		<description>Well, I&#039;m pretty sure you&#039;re aware that I read this blog. And that I love it. It&#039;s because I get to find out what&#039;s going on with you and I often get to learn something new. I know I usually only comment on the adorable pictures (by the way, the new one on this post is really cute of you!) but a lot of the times I want to comment but it ends up taking a long time to figure out what I want to say and how to say it or I have to tend to something/one else and then I get frustrated because I just want to say what I think face to face. So, sorry I don&#039;t leave comments that spur discussion. But I am reading and I think you&#039;re doing a super job!</description>
