We experienced the joy and sorrow of a "homecoming trip" today. Nanchang rolled out the red carpet (literally) for our son's reunion trip to his former orphanage. Each child's adoption story is incredibly personal and unique so we will only share a bit here and leave the rest up to him to share with whom he wants.
Today, Jonathan (aka Hong Yuan Tao) was treated like royalty, which made a very hard occasion a little easier to bare. As we approached the orphanage (one of the largest in China with portions underwritten by Half the Sky and Holt International), a large red banner read "Welcome Hong Yuan Tao Back Home."
