I have a new niece............
This is Alaina. She is 3 1/2 year old Chinese orphan that my sister-in-law and her husband adopted. They just got back from China with her this past week. It took almost 2 years for everything to work out. It was a long wait but now she is home

Lou and I think she's adorable Jim. If your brother and sister in law are anything like you, she'll have a great life.

Wow, the time (and expense) involved.
Bet the last pic is her warming-up to all the love she's getting. God bless them all.

Very nice. The brother of a good friend of mine also adopted a Chinese baby girl about a year ago. They are all very happy people.

Jim, congratulations and I applaud those wonderful parents that are giving a little girl a happy, loving home, it's people like them that make up for people like me in this world, (selfish and self-centered). If I can offer them one bit of advice, tell that little girl in about 20 years go stay away from guys like me....
