Here's What's New:

6.16.05 - we received our home study report!
6.22.05 - we received our first set of authenticated documents back
from the State of Missouri.  Illinois and Kansas to follow, then all of
them get FedEx'd off to Chicago's Chinese Consulate.
6.28.05 - we are waiting on some documents from Kansas and the
USCIS (formerly known at the INS).  Once received, we should be
sending all off to Chicago.
6.29.05 - we get fingerprinted at the USCIS office.  Won't be long
before Doug's off to Club Fed for those past - well, we'll call them
infractions.  :-)
7.20.05 - we've received all state certified documents back
(including the I-171H - Yea!!!) and sent off all documents to be
processed by the Chinese Consulate in Chicago.  At this point, we
are predicting our docs will go to China on Friday, August 5th.  
Pray hard!!!
8.9.05 - WOW - what a ride!  Our dossier did in fact go to China on
the 5th (after some last minute let's get this bad boy out the door
techniques).  Thx for all the prayers.  We're looking forward to fewer
late nights and getting to know the group with whom we'll be
traveling to China.
Join Our Journey

Welcome to the Freeman Family's Adoption Journey
We've established this website to journal our adoption process so that family and friends can stay up-to-date
with our latest "hot off the press" information.  Visit often and we'll try to keep new stuff posted on a regular
basis.  If we don't please forgive us (it's all Natalie's fault!)

Who We Are
We are the Freeman Family - mom and dad Baylor grads and four kids who dream in green and gold (come
on - they're Baylor's colors).  We are currently accepting your generous donation to our children's college
educations.  Remember - give early and give often.  :-)  We hope to have more specifics about our family
posted at
www.DoNotConform.org in the near future, but for now it's just a picture and links to some other
sites of ours.

God's Provision
We'd love to tell you that this adoption was our idea, but then we'd be struck by lightning and sent to live with a
thousand camels and all their fleas!  Our story is truly one of God's provision.  God called, and we're
answering.  We're experiencing how God can provide in some wonderful ways when you're open to His will.

Dedication
We lovingly dedicate this site to our Chung Gwa Wawa (China Doll).  May you alongside your sister and
brothers grow to be all that God planned you to be.  We love you!  You'll be home soon sweetheart!
The Freeman
Family
