Introducing Miss Sienna Grace
Diana gave me (Kim) permission to post an update. Obviously, I cannot really write what is on Diana's beautiful heart but I know that so many of you are waiting for news.
Here are a few photos....
Sienna Grace is STUNNINGLY beautiful and supposedly has long beautiful legs:)
Diana has said that Sienna's smile lights up all of Hunan (and it does)! Those photos are coming soon. Diana has also described Sienna as very strong willed. You can imagine how hard this is for Sienna. She is 4 and 1/2 and she is leaving everything that she has known. Please pray for her. Diana is trying to get her to sleep right now. Tomorrow, they need to go to Civil Affairs and it could be very challenging for Sienna as that is where they met her and the Orphanage Director will be there. I know Diana would want me to thank you all for your continued prayers and support for them. They can truly feel it in China.
And don't forget to check Sienna's travel site.

Diana,
I am lifting you up in prayers each time your name crosses my mind. God is good and I am praying that He gives you strength as you deal with Sienna's transition. I understand, truly I do. Let God be your strength and your shield. You are dear person and have a sweet spirit. Sienna is gorgeous! Kim
She is just beautiful! I am over joyed for you right now! I have been checking all morning on MAW to see if you had updated.
Just know you are in our prayers! Miss Sienna has the most patient Mother and she will learn how much she is loved in the days ahead!
Love and Hugs!
So very precious. I will be praying. I know how difficult this can be.
Sienna is just BEAUTIFUL! What an amazing day this must have been for your family. I will continue to pray for you all!
Cannot wait to see more photos!
I've been waiting for this post all morning. I am so glad she is with you now. The grieving is going to be hard. Nothing can prepare you for it but the same God who carried you to China for Sienna Grace will hold your hand (and hers) through it all. Goodnight and CONGRATS!!!! She is beautiful!
What a beautiful little girl! Congratulations on your forever family day with Sienna.
Hugs and prayers to you Diana. She is beautiful, our girls were a year younger and I'll never forget their fear they had during this time. Now they say why did you take so long? :).
Congratulations!
Kim you are no doubt a wonderful friend to Diana! Both of you have such beautiful inner spirits that radiates outwardly for all to see! Sienna just adds to the beauty of a wonderful friendship!
congratulations! She is lovely, I hope her transition into your lucky family goes as smooth as possible.
"And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
I am rejoicing with you and praying peace and comfort and joy over each of you.
love you!
She is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen!!! I am certain she has a beautiful heart too!!! I have been praying for you constantly. God woke me in the night last night, at perhaps a time you were meeting her. What a joy to pray for your family and specifically for precious Sienna Grace.
Can't wait for more photos!
With tears of abundant joy,
Congratulations and love

What a sweet and scared little girl. The morning will be better -- for everyone. Today is the first day of Sienna's new life -- she's just overwhelmed -- who wouldn't be. I'll be praying for you all.
And the best part is -- you are mommy to three wonderful little girls!!!!
Thanks for the update - praying for all and so happy that Sienna is finally where she belongs - with her mommy & daddy! She is so beautiful
Awww, she's stunning all right.
She has so much to overcome, but she will do it in the perfect family that God has chosen for her.
Congratulations to you all on a beautiful new daughter and sister.
I'm so SO happy for you.
Jill

She is so beautiful. Praying her transition is going well and all is well with all of you!

...and absolute angel. Cannot even control my tears right now. So excited for you. Love the last picture, especially. Little Chang-Chang looks a lot like Ruby :)!
Oh - she is precious!!
Diana, Jeff and Ainsley we are all thinking about you and praying that tomorrow's appointment goes ok for Sienna.
Sienna you have just become a member of an amazing family!!
Ruby, I bet you can't wait to meet your new sister!!
Blessings to your FAMILY of 5!!! Ashley
God is good! Sienna is beautiful, and it was so emotional to look at the photos of you becoming a family. I'll continue to keep you in my prayers, be safe!
Oh she is stunningly beautiful!
I woke up around 1:30am this morning and Sienna Grace was on my heart...I prayed for her and her Mommy and Daddy (and sisters, too). My cousin's little one is also strong willed, that fighting spirit has been necessary and has served her well. Praise God, Sienna Grace has a Mommy and Daddy that will be there to guide her...and she has a loving heavenly Father that loves her so much. Oh, thank you Lord for this precious new family member!

She is STUNNING! Even prettier than the photos we have already seen of her. Who knew she could be any cuter!!?!! ;)
Prayin' that things go okay at the civil affairs office. Too bad someone can't stay back with Sienna so she doesn't have to go through the withdrawl part again. Poor girl. Poor parents. My heart goes out to all of them and they absolutely remain in my prayers.
Happy Gotcha Day! Sienna is just adorable! I am sooooo excited for your family!
Oh, Sienna Grace is breathtaking...
Welcome to your family little one.
How happy.... will be praying for her to know that she is safe, loved and that her little heart will have peace.
Congratulations,
Daleea
She's such a pretty little girl!!
I can't imagine how tough it was to see Sienna struggling so much today. And bless your heart even your mama bag of tricks wasn't working for you, but it sounds like that as the day progressed she did quite well for such a huge day. Love the picture of Ainsley and Sienna sharing a laugh together - so precious!!
I am certain that Sienna is in the family that God has chosen to raise her. I wish you and your family continued strength, assurance, and peaceful hearts during these tough transitional days.
She is adorable!!! Congrats:)
How did one year go by so quickly. I remember taking my laptop to work and waiting very impatiently for those first pictures. Sienna Grace, we love you, and your friend Nadi is so happy that you will be her best buddy for life.
