So much to tell but I will just post the most important


































I have been so busy with school and our computer has been sick for awhile, but here are some updates. Millie has been going to a new sitter, and she loves her and her son. She seems to be trying to talk so much more. She is also in gymnastics, and by the looks of her mom, I know nothing about that. She loves the trapiez and running from me the entire time we are in the class. She really is very good at at least trying to do what she is supposed to but we will see how she does in the future. Millie celebrated Reese's birthday with her, which are when some of these photo's were taken. She has been really changing in all of little ways recently, she has developed a wonderful carefree personality, that makes me look at things so differently now. We have to stop everything we are doing at look at a bug or a piece of grass in the yard, only to throw it as hard as we can about 6 inches in front of us. (And then laugh really hard) Millie tries to put on her makeup with me, and she does know where all of it goes on her face, and I thought she didn't pay attention to anything that had to do with me and what I do!!! She doesn't really put it on she just pretends. That's all I have time for so enjoy the pictures.

LILY

Today is Lily's 2nd Birthday, and as painful as it is to look at these pictures, my heart is full of love when I see them. Lily spent only 24 hours with us, and in those few hours has made an lasting impression on our lives. I can't remove those feelings or the love and wondering and praying for her everyday. Hoping that she has found a forever family. Thinking about what her life is like. Ours will never be the same since the day we met her. She is our angel that helped us meet Amelia. Someone so small and fragile has moved me and made me see life in a very different way. I wish I could tell you that I'm past that day we met her, but that is not true and I don't know if I will ever be. I will always love her and cherish the time we spent with her. She is still my daughter in China that I could not bring home. So just because I want to, Happy Birthday Lily, I love you and miss you so much, thank you for the sweet and wonderful way you touched our hearts.
