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.

Back to work for Mommy...






Today was my first day back to work. We received bad news upon our return from China that our wonderful daycare was closing. The hunt began for a new daycare and we were blessed to find Rachael. She lives very close to us and I have no doubt it is going to be the perfect spot! She was even nice enough to send an email to Bob and I during nap time with pictures of the kids' first day. The first photo shows us getting ready to leave for the day. The next few are the ones Rachael sent to Bob and I at work letting us know they were all ok! She is wonderful!! Jackson was SO excited to go back to school. He had a great day! Emmaline was little fussy in the afternoon, but overall had a great day adjusting. (At least that is what Rachael shared with me) I had a tough drive to work missing the kids and feeling guilty, but once I arrived at work I had a wonderful day back at the office.
