Here is a beautiful song by Taiwanese singer Zhang Xuan called "Bao Bei" (which is a term Chinese mothers use for their babies--I believe it loosely translates to 'precious treasure' so it is kind of like the German term of endearment "Schatz" with some baby connotations). Cute pictures of little Chinese babies are included! :)

How funny that I just happened to be singing this to my LilyJoy tonight!! I haven't listened to this for a long time, thanks for posting!
What a great post! I had not heard that song before, but it's beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
I love this video. Hello! I just received your post. Yes, we are also waiting to adopt from Taiwan. The funny thing is you stumbled on my blog, but many months ago I stumbled on yours when I began creating my blog and got a lot of my ideas from yours. How are you? We are excited about adopting, but trying to remain surrendered. How about you?
Oh, I LOVE this...thank you for sharing! :)
