As of Friday, 1/25/08, our dossier is on it's way to China! We have been hoping for a China log in date in early February and it appears we are on track.
A little more about Aiden;
We found Aiden Yuan Peng Tkach on the WACAP waiting children list last October. There was a short video of him and we thought he was adorable. As we always do, we prayed and asked the Lord for direction and in a few days decided to inquire further about him with WACAP. Karyn was able to talk by phone with two other women who had information about Yuan Peng and his medical file. As the days went by we felt very confident that the Lord was directing us to proceed with applying to adopt him. We felt confident that his medical condition, which is a hemangioma on his elbow, was something that we could handle, even if there is more involved than might meet the eye.
Now as we wait for the Chinese Center of Adoption Affairs to do their part, we get to send Aiden a small care package with our pictures so he can finally see a family at the end of the tunnel so to speak. Our Adam is looking forward to having a brother and a roommate so we can get their bedroom ready while we wait.
We'll keep you posted...
Welcome to Aiden's Journey Home. Aiden is the latest member of the Tkach family. Aiden was sent to the Social Welfare Institue of Nanchang City in April 2004. He was 3 years old. His journey home began in October 2007 when God placed him on our hearts to adopt. His journey home is the focus of this site.

What should be the first English words we teach Aiden?
James 1:27
Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.
