Visions of Vietnam Dancing in My Head

A family I have met through adoption is currently in Vietnam adopting a baby sister for their already two boys (the youngest adopted from Vietnam). The Daddy stayed behind with the two boys and the Mama (brave mama), went over to Vietnam on her own to meet and bring baby T home with her. Her daughter is just so beautiful and from the same orphanage as Lily.

Reading her blog and hearing her journey brings back so many wonderful memories. Even the shopping in the Tax Centre, coffee at the Highland Cafe and just taking in all the sights in HCMC gives me a warmth and a wanting to go back. Maybe for a sibling for Lily or maybe just to take Lily back to see the country where she was born. Not sure what it is, but I am feeling very maternal, even beyond being Lily's mother. Gosh, must be the recent fever speaking !!

A wish of a wonderful trip with special memories of meeting and bring home baby T to S and family. Safe travels!
