Anna Mae is going home!
Praise be to God! Shaoqiang He (Jack) and wife, Qin Luo He (Casey) will have their little girl back! Thank you, Tennessee Supreme Court for making the right decision!NASHVILLE, Tennessee — The Tennessee Supreme Court cleared the way Tuesday for a Chinese couple to be reunited with the daughter they placed in foster care with an American family nearly eight years ago.
The court overturned a decision by a Memphis judge who had taken away the parental rights of Shaoqiang and Qin Luo He, ruling that they had abandoned the child. That decision attracted widespread publicity and was criticized as ethnically biased.
I wrote about this case here and here. I even had brief contact with the Hes via email. They kept me on their update email list over the years, and I would say a prayer for them often. I stopped writing here because of the vicious comments and email I was getting from friends of the Bakers, the people that stole Anna Mae from her mommy and daddy. It's been a tragedy that has tugged at my heart, having been deprived of the company of my own children in the past due to the lies and deceptions of others. Fate, karma, God ... whatever, intervened for me and I have two of my babies close by me now. I give praise and thanks that the Hes will be reunited with their baby, too.
The Hes will have a long and difficult adjustment to make, since Anna Mae has really only known the Bakers as family. But given their dedication and devotion to getting Anna Mae back in their arms, I know they will do whatever they need to do to ensure that she finds her place again.
God Bless Anna Mae!

She should have been reunited by now, but the Bakers are again causing grief and delay by going back to court to fight. What a tragedy for poor Anna Mae He.
I don't believe that the Bakers have ever thought of Anna Mae's best interest when they have taken every step through their fight over the years to cease all contact between Anna Mae and her parents. To continue the delay this way wrong. Any further delay in reuniting Anna Mae with her real family is rewarding the Bakers for the grief and disruption that they have caused this family.
As far as the Bakers' "substantial harm" claim, substantial harm has been done by the forced seperation of Anna Mae from her loving biological parents for so long.
How could Mrs. Baker .. a mother herself do this to another mother?
Of course there will be some difficulty adjusting to her new family, but I have no doubt that she will one day thank her parents for loving her and fighting for her return.
I'm glad that you have your babies back with you too. You sound like a loving mother who your children are so blessed to have.
