A tear-jerker

I've often mentioned how emotional it was for me to watch Reagan's nannies say good-bye, and yesterday this post from another LA-area family currently in Vietnam brought all of those feelings roaring back. Tears poured down my cheeks as I watched this with thoughts of how much the Vietnamese people love their children. Though the current (hopefully very temporary) moratorium on Vietnamese adoptions is disturbing, it's comforting to know that the children left behind will not be without love.
