We started this journey many years ago, knowing that our daughter was waiting for us somewhere in China. That journey began in 2004, but after a setback healthwise, we had to pull out, thinking our hopes were dashed forever. Then in late 2005, with renewed purpose and strength we again began the process of our adoption. We were logged into China March 28th, 2006, and were matched with our Dear Daughter, October 13th, 2009. GOTCHA 12/14/09 Forever Ours 12/15/09
Ahh, let there be SHOES !!!! 2/24/10
Well, slowly, but surely, the room is seeing some progression. Curtains up, now we're just waiting for the perfect window,( HA, no pun intended )......... to approach the wallpaper trim. Someone has to occupy twinkle toes for a bit, so that the paper gets hung straight. Then there's the matter of a rug, and some paint still needs to be applied, and the pictures and art need to be hung....... but the curtains that was a major thing. The tie backs are just the prototype, they need to be worked on a bit.
Chinese New Years Parade - Marching with FCC 2/21/10
Today we had the distinct pleasure of marching in the Chinese New Year's Parade in Manhattan. We marched with Families With Children From China....... a/k/a The FCC. Baylon slept during the entire march. She's not been feeling well still, only this time it seems that she is cutting approx. 8 teeth, and they all seem to be molars. She's been a trooper, but in a lot of discomfort, and besides that, she's got The Little Gym Syndrome....... every time we go play, she takes home some friends with her...... nasty germs and always comes down with something, hence Mom has dubbed the Little Gym, the Little Germ.
Two other families that we had traveled with to China, (they live in N.Y.), were with us...... after a wonderful day of walking, we celebrated with an incredible meal..... no, not Chinese food.......... you'll never guess..........................................
we ate, Vietnamese Food.......... yup, it was scrumpt-deeee-licious !
