So I have not posted for way too

long but like the idea of updating. I just realized that our original LID for

our China adoption was yesterday. We would have been waiting 7 years if

we hadn't decided to change course and adopt from Ethiopia. Let me tell you.....

the very best decision we could have made!! Do you see my angel?? She is by far

all I could have ever asked for and all I could have wished for. She is more than

I could have imagined and the most vibrant, confidant, sweet little girl I have ever

met. I am proud and humbled to be her mother. She has taught me the best things that

happen are not at all what you think they will be.  

This is her in all her crazy, fun, wild ways. This

is what 5 looks like going on 15. She is all Attitude with all a capital "A". If your reading

this and was part of the original November 2006 LID for China I'd love to hear from you. Wonder

how many of you are still holding out for your baby. I hope the wait has been kind to you and you

have filled the time well.
