Our friends Justin and Shelley are in China and TODAY they took their new baby girl, Layla, into their arms. It's a wonderful story - click on the link below to read about this miraculous day. One very cool part of the story - when they were matched with Layla, they found out she has a cleft lip and cleft palette. Justin was also born with a cleft lip and cleft palette. They got the agency to agree to wait to do the surgery until she gets to the US (so she can have the best care.) If you have time, also read the post on here about when their 2 1/2 year old son Henry picked out a teddy bear for Layla (it is so sweet!!)
