Congratulations To Hank, Tricia, and Sophie

Sophie and Tricia Belz
About right now, 9000 miles away in Binh Duong Province, Vietnam. Our friends Hank and Tricia Belz are completing a dream. It's at the same place where Cathy and I completed our dream on September 22nd. They have been united with their daughter Sophie, forever. They are probably at the orphanage while I type or they may be at the government office signing the papers. But, when they leave Binh Duong in a little bit, their little angel will be with them. We have never met Hank and Tricia in person. We have spoken on the phone and by email, shared pictures and stories, and stood together as friends in our similar journeys. If you have never read their blog, please take a minute to do so: http://www.babybelz.blogspot.com/ They are an incredible couple whom life has thrown a few curve balls. Hank, Tricia and Sophie, we are so happy for you guys! You have endured so much in your life together. Congratulations on this incredibly special day! We thank you for sharing your very special story and can't wait for the rest of it! We look forward to getting together in person soon, and letting our two Binh Duong girls play and become lifelong friends!
With much love and respect,
Thomas, Cathy, and Emma Keller
