How we chose Kendal

Can't wait to meet our little Lian ladybug we have named Kendal May Xinfan. Of course, we call her Kendy. We chose the name Kendal 4.5 years ago while vacationing with our 2.5 year old daughter also from China. While playing at the pool a little 11 year old Asian girl joined us. She too was adopted from China and her name was Kendall. My little Taytay was smitten by her and followed her from pool to hot tub and back again. No one else had ever been able to gain her attention and acceptance away from mommy quite like this. It was clear that we had found the name for our second daughter. We just didn't know it would take almost 5 years to actually hold her.
Our paper chase began in January of 2006 and as we near the end of 2010, we feel blessed to have made the right decision for our family and raise Taylor, our beautiful, kind, sweet daughter while waiting for our time to go back to China for Kendy.
Emotional, yes. Excited, beyond words. In love, absolutely!
