About Us

Thank you for visiting us! This documents our adoption journey to Bella Catherine Long Luoyue Pearson, in China. Why Chocolate Noodles? Well, we’ve learned that Bella's favorite foods are noodles and candy. Both, Dale and Rachel LOVE chocolate and Beth chose to fast from chocolate until she can share it with Bella. We would be honored if you would follow along as we travel to China to complete our family.

Rachel has asked that we name our daughter, Bella. It means “gift of God’s favor” and seem quite fitting. I also requested we use Catherine in her name. Cathy Sims was my spiritual mentor and dear friend. She passed away just nine days after having her first child due to a blood clot. Cathy and I had some big plans to do ministry together. Using her name makes her still a part of my journey and this seems the perfect way to honor her and continue her legacy. Dale and Rachel whole-heartedly agree. So, Bella Catherine she is.
