GOTCHA GIRL!

Four years ago today this little peanut was placed in my arms.  FOREVER!!!!

I have said it a million times and I am going to say it again . . . 

If you have ever considered adoption take the leap because you won't regret it.

If you have never considered adoption give it a thought and see were it takes you.  

I promise you will be blessed beyond belief.  

Truly blessed!  Amazingly blessed! 

I love you Naomi ChuYu up to the stars and down to the bottom of the ocean and all over again.   

Nanchang 2008

Precious Jiangxi Friends

We met 4 years ago in Beijing China.  (o.k I just got chills from that thought)  

Our daughters placed in our arms the same day in the same hotel in Nanchang.

Let me tell you this is one of "those" families.  I wish I was a fly on their wall because I think I would learn allot about love and respect and kindness and patience.   GOOD people.

My Girl

Yesterday she got her nose stints out.

Today I got my first kiss since surgery.

I also got to see my baby smile.

It's a new smile. 

I miss the old smile but love the new one.

I am guessing once the old smile comes back I'll miss the new one.  

My darling girl how grateful I am to have you.  To be your mommy.
