Thanks for visiting our blog!  We hope that you enjoy learning about our family.  If you heard about our story and are looking for a way to help us bring Eden home, go to the website ( http://chn.ge/babyEden ) and sign your name to our petition.  Our application for Humanitarian Parole will be reviewed shortly and we need all of the support that we can get.  We hope that you have a happy holiday, spent with the people you love.

Due to the change.org petition (If you haven’t, go and sign it now!) for Eden we’ve had a lot of requests for information from our blog, and I know it’s a bit time consuming to search back through all of our posts to find stuff from the early days with Eden.  I’ve attached links to a few of our favorite blog posts and the main events of the story from over the last couple of years.  You’re of course welcome to just wander through the blog as well, but these are the highlights!

We are almost ready to submit our application for Humanitarian Parole for Eden.  This would allow her to come back to the US as soon as possible and stay for about 6 months.  We’re trying to get the word out to as many people as possible about our case.  My Dad created a petition that you can sign to help support bringing Eden home.  Please check out the website (http://www.change.org/petitions/us-citizenship
-and-immigration-service-uscis-expedited-humanitarian-parole-for-baby-eden-bring-her-home-by-christmas) and sign the petition for Eden.

We will keep you updated on our progress and let you know as soon as we hear the decision from USCIS!
