The Gift of You

I didn't give you the gift of life, but in my heart I know.
The love I feel is deep and real, as if it had been so.
For us to have each other is like a dream come true!
No, I didn't give you the gift of life, life gave me the gift of you.

About Us

About Us
Hello! We are Bob and Trish Akers from Indiana. We are in the process of adopting a daughter, Emmaline Catherine, from China. We have a log in date of December 8, 2005, and are hoping to get our "referral" in November 2007. It's been a long journey, but we are so excited to be this close! ****************************************************************** Update: We have obviously adopted our daughter, so this is now the Akers Family website. We will periodically be posting pictures of our family and newest adventures.

We Made It!!

After more than 24 hours of traveling, we finally checked into our hotel in downtown Beijing. Except for all the Chinese writing on all the billboards, it pretty much looks like any other city in the U.S. We hooked up with our travel mates in Newark and we're all about to head out for some dinner (even though our bodies are telling us it's 4:00am).
