in memory of Maria

Tragic news from the family of Steven Curtis Chapman. Their youngest daughter, Maria, was struck by a vehicle driven by one of her brothers Wednesday night. She passed away at Vanderbilt Hospital.

This touches me and Kim deeply. We're deep in the process of adopting a baby girl from China (though it's taking a long time.) We have been touched and encouraged by the Chapmans' story, and our hearts are hurting for them.

I don't know why this kind of thing happens. Sometimes the answers are difficult to find, and all I have is silence.

travis--welcome! We'd love to share our experience with you. Drop me a line. It's been a long process, with lots of setbacks. But we know it's the right thing to do, at least for us.
