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.

Our new Lap Dog

Meet Ringo




Here's the newest member of our family. Ringo joined us five days ago and he's doing really well. Despite his size, he's only a puppy. He's a Cane Corso Mastiff and will grow to 100 to 125 pounds. I know.......it's crazy, but Trish has wanted this dog for 2 years, so he is her birthday present (a bit early). He hasn't had any accidents in the house and loves the kids. He sleeps all night next to our bed and is really well-behaved. He and Dewey are still trying to establish a relationship, but I think it's going to be just fine.
