Uzbekistan Family

Will the family who posted the comment a few days ago, who is adopting a child from Uzbekistan, please contact me directly. I tried to find your blog, but it's invitation only and I can't figure out how to find your e-mail address. I would like to talk to you about Uzbekistan as that is where our daughter is from.

Thanks! You can e-mail me directly through the blog link or at ondreaharrison@gmail.com.
