The adoption Community mourns'

We want to express our deepest condolence's to the Chapman Family. Their family is facing unbelievable tragedy, today as they attend the memorial service for their youngest daughter Maria (sitting on Stevens Lap). On Wednesday May 21st their youngest daughter Maria was struck by the SUV their teenage son was driving. She was Life flighted to Vanderbilt medical center in Nashville TN. She later passed away from injuries sustained during the accident. Words can not express the grief that the whole adoption community is feeling for the Chapman family. Steven Curtis Chapman(Grammy winning contemporary christian singer) and his wife Mary Beth have 6 children (3 biological and 3 adopted daughters from China). The Chapman's have done so much for the adoption community through their foundation Shaohannha's Hope. The adoption community is grieving right along with them for this little girl...

It is just the most unimaginable thing -- that poor boy.

Your daughter is beautiful. I'm so happy that some of the Jan folks are getting their children! We were DTC Jan, but changed to SN last summer for our daughter. Best wishes! Lucy
