Libby LeFan was born Wan, Le Fan on February 14, 2012 in Jiangxi, PR China. The day after she was born she was placed on the caring steps of the SWI Wanzai County with a note of her birth information. She has been residing there for the last 10 months and is on her way “home” very soon. We had been waiting so long to be matched with our daughter, that when the day came, it was hard to believe it was really happening. It is amazing how one phone call can change everything…

It was a typical busy Monday, July 30th 2012 at 5:30 pm, when I received “the call”. There had been rumors for days that referrals were coming, and our Log-In Date was next in line. I heard the cheerful voice of our referral counselor say—“I have news about your daughter” and my heart skipped a beat. Everything faded to silence and I took in the news that we had a “Valentine’s Day” baby, she was 5 ½ months old, 10 lbs, 21 inches, and healthy! It was a great day! I told Jason and Brynn the news and we waited for the email to come with pictures of her precious face. We gathered around the laptop and waited for the “Stork to Land”. When the email came, we looked at her and knew she was ours and meant to be part of this family; and so began our Journey to Libby!
