Going Private

We have decided to make our blog private. Now that we are home and will be posting more and more pictures of Sophia we feel it is a safe guard we must take to protect her. We have held off doing this until after we were home form China. The time has come now to make the move to a private blog. If you are a follower of our blog and would like to continue to follow our lives as a family of three please e-mail me and I would be more then happy to send you an invite to the blog. The only difference is that when I send you the e-mail you will have to accept and then sign into your yahoo account to view our blog. We will give it a week or so before we go private to give everyone the opportunity to send me an e-mail.

Thanks so much for all the love and support during our wait and then our trip to China for Sophia. We hope to see all of you in the private blog world.......

Hugs
Susan and Riz

Update: I have received all of your request to join the private blog. I am saving all of them in a folder until I make the blog private and will send invites to all of you at time. I will send to all of you who posted to the blog as well at that time. Thanks for all the kind words and interest in our lives. I should have posted our e-mail address too it is
sophiajoy06@yahoo.com

Susan,

I would like to have an invitation to your private blog. I have been following your blog all along and would like to continue. My daughter adopted her daughter from Sichuan in January this year. Your Sophia is just beautiful and I am sure both of you are extremely happy.

Hi, Susan. I would also like an invite to your blog. I like to read about how Sophia and her parents are doing. Our Christa is wonderful and she is adjusting well. Thanks, Sherry from your travel group.

Hi Susan,

I would love to added as well. I'm going private myself in August. Two years going on waiting is enough for me. I will open up a travel blog when we travel and then a new family one after that that will be private.
Thanks
Sherri
