This is Simon who will turn 11 this spring.

Fall 2010
2011
Last year we added two more children to our family ! We brought home Dominic, the little boy we first met when visiting Cheryl in 2006 in Yunnan and also Rosemary, a little girl who lived in Guangxi. Nellie, Rosie and Dominic will soon turn 12 so we have virtual triplets and Andy ,9.
We have had such fun with our new kids, that we are going to China for a fourth time! This year we will bring home two boys ages ten and eleven, who will fit nicely (we hope) in the middle of our kids. They currently live in Xi'an,Shaanxi and Shehezi, Xinjiang. I thought we went traipsing all over China the other times we were there, but those trips will totally pale next to the amount of country we will cover this time. I know Someone must be laughing at the way He is stretching this 'reluctant traveler'.

About Us
- Wright Family
- 2014-Jerry and I have been married 38 years. We are currently parents of 15, and soon to be 17, children. The first 8 are self supporting adults :) with only Ariel , the youngest of our first nine, still in college and living at home. After raising our first 9 children we thought we were finished until God took us on a serendipitous adventure that led to the adoption of 6 more children, 5 from China. That story is covered at andyweiwwright.blogspot.com .

thanks, but the one I am telling to be careful is my 24 year old who only speaks English....I suppose, as he seems so much like Everett in many other ways, I am going to need it with 11 yr old Dominic, too !
Hi Catherine-
The time at home the first couple weeks are very difficult- it is the "awkward time" where you hope those at home will bond or even semi like the new children.
Praying for your family!!
God Bless you! Thank you for stopping by my blog!

Everett cracks me up! Seems like even in our house, the things that the girls think are the most fun are the things that make me cringe and say "BE CAREFUL"! :)
