    We're Donna and Andrew from San Francisco Bay Area, California.  We're parents to Michael (20) and Gwendolyn and Madeline (4).  Gwen and Maddy were adopted from China.  Gwen came to us from Shenzhen in Guangdong province and Maddy came from Qinzhou in Guangxi province.  They're 36 days apart in age (virtual twins!) but were adopted just less than one year apart.  This blog is about our family and friends but it focuses mostly on our daughters and China adoption.

Family FotoFun Friday (FFFF)

Ffff_anticipation_2 I've seen a few websites that offer photo challenges for bloggers and they've looked like great fun but I'm not comfortable sharing my URL outide the China Adoption Community.  So, I thought I'd create our own weekly photo challenge.  I hope everyone will want to play along!  Each week, I'll post a new topic and old topics will be archived in the left menu for easy access.

Who can play?  You have to have a parenting theme blog or be connected to the China adoption community to play.  Waiting families are welcome!

The Rules

1.  Post a picture on your blog.  Be creative!  Dare to be artsy!

2.  Post your link. But please don't post it before you add your picture(s).  Also, please link directly to the post that contains your FFFF entry that week.  Think about it, in 6 months, it'll be impossible to find your entry if you don't link directly to it (How do I do that?).

3.  Leave a comment.  You don't need to compliment me (really, you don't!) but please do say something.  Otherwise, it feels a little bit like a 'hit and run'.

4.  Please link back to me.   I don't really need the traffic but it's nice to let your readers know where the heck you found the FFFF so they can join if they want to.

The first FFFF Challenge is "Anticipation"....
