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
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.

The Chinese New Year Continues...






This weekend will include days 10, 11, and 12 of the Chinese New Year.
These days are traditionally spent entertaining friends and relatives
for dinner. It is thought that serving an even number of dishes will
bring "double happiness." If serving whole fish for dinner,
some should not be eaten but left to symbolize abundance.

The photos today are of the kids opening up special surprises from cousin Di.
