Were Donna and Andrew from San Jose, California. Were parents to Michael (19) and Gwendolyn and Madeline (3). Gwen and Maddy were adopted from China. Gwen came to us from Shenzhen in Guangdong province and Maddy came from Qinzhou in Guangxi province. Theyre 36 days apart in age (virtual twins!) but were adopted just less than one year apart. This blog is about our family and friends but it focuses mostly on our daughters and China adoption.Cool Stuff
