Red Thread Journey..."An invisible red thread connects those who are destined to meet, regardless of time, place, or circumstances. The thread may stretch or tangle, but will never break." Chinese Proverb


This is the story of our family: Our son Jacob, born to us 12 years ago, and Our daughter Kira (2005~2006), whom was born to us~ and now she rests in heaven before us, with my husband's eldest daughter Shelby (1990~2011). They have all three blessed our lives and souls, in many ways as their humbled parents. They have powerfully lead us through GOD'S hand to be parents of more; through their love, memory, and with the help of adoption from China. We have now come complete circle and have finished our journey to family forever, to adopt our 3...uhhhhh now 4th...no... it is our 5th beloved child from China. Our first China daughter; Hannah was from Guangdong, China ~ in 2008 and we then returned to China in late 2009 to adopt Our oldest son; Scott and Our oldest daughter; Athena, both from Henan, China ~ in 2009. We just finished the process of adopting our youngest daughter; Bella from China, she was also from Henan, China ~ in 2011. At the same time we were blessed to be able to have found another waiting daughter; Deanna, our 4th china daughter, and she is our 5th child from China. She is from Guangdong, China--same as our first China daughter; Hannah (2008) --& the story behind Deanna joining us is way too long to print it all here, but our circle of forever family is complete with her ~in 2011. {Here is just an exerpt of that special final adoption journey}-- Deanna is our 1st adopted daughter's foster sister from Guangdong, China. She is now the same age as our 1st adopted daughter was when we were first united as a forever family. Deanna's Chinese name means: 'perfect, precious circle'.} Our family circle is now complete. Pray with us as we enjoy parenthood, and as we continue to rejoice in the trials, triumphs, and blessings that have lead us each time halfway around the world to add to our cherished family. This is our family we share with you, as friends and family alike.

Always Loved, Always Remembered, Always With Us: We love you Shelby!

With Great LOVE, and many TEARS, as this week has been one that we never imagined coming for someone so special, so young, so LOVED. We can hardly believe a weather-related-roll-over-accident on 02.08.2011 has taken you from us and all those that loved you and those you loved--way too soon, way too young. We are very saddened today, as we attended your service to Celebrate You; your wonderful Gift of Life, the gift of You. You will always Glow in our Hearts--We miss you terribly Shelby-with all our love, as You rest in HIS arms forever.
Shelby 1990-2011
daddy was always in awhh of his little girl--and her joyous smile.
I was blessed to have Shelby, grace my life at her tender age of 4, when I met her father.Shelby with Jacob at dinner--he loved her so much; just look at that pure innocent joy. The last time we saw Shelby--Grandpa's first grandchild, and he is always sure to let his family know of his love. The love the entire Hunsucker family has for Shelby. We miss you,--and all that was to be for you and us together.

There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are messengers of overwhelming grief... and unspeakable love. --Washington Irving

Good News, Not our LOA {Letter of Acceptance} that we are waiting patiently for..but

We sent Hannah a Birthday Party Care Package, through Ann at RedThread in China. We found out that Hannah received her cake and the SWI {Social Welfare Institute, aka Orphanage} agreed that they would take pictures at the party for us and... they also said "yes, Hannah can have a TUTOR!"{ it will be simple English, the SWI said I can pay them for the Tutor, when "I come for her"}.. That's great news!! They know I am coming!!... now just get those acceptance and travel documents over here. LOL :o)
