Here we are in the last week of 2017. I feel like I'm still adjusting to the thought of it being 2017, but 2018 is just around the corner and it is fun to look back on what happened on the blog in 2017.

November has the most pageviews of any month of not only 2017, but also of all time on the blog, with September and June as the next highest. This post about Lisa was viewed more than any other post, again, not only of 2017 but in our all-time history. This post about Russell was second and this post about Harris was third, both of these are second and third of 2017 and all time history of the blog.

Lisa is home with her family!

Most of our pageviews come from the US with Russia and Canada as second and third. Most pageviews come from iPhones with Windows and Android as second and third most common ways to view the blog.

The first child we wrote an advocacy post for in 2017, Noelle, is now home and just had a wonderful Christmas with her family.

Noelle is home with her family!

We posted 210 times this year, 83 of which were about Taiwan, and those posts were viewed 361,783 times. The top 3 referring sites are Facebook, Rainbowkids, and the God Has Answered personal blog.

Though the blog and our other advocacy efforts around 90 children found families this year. Most of these were placed through Gladney, but we do provide information to families who are considering children we have met even if the family is with another agency when we have the opportunity to.

Thank you all for reading and sharing our posts! When we all work together wonderful things happen!
