One Year ago today!!
















I can't help but to remember how I spent April 29Th 2009. We were on an airplane with so many emotions and excitement that I don't think I rested the whole flight. We were about to begin our journey that seemed like eternity to us. We were flying to China. We had all of our luggage and money and I panicked often thinking I forgot our important paperwork at home. I was so nervous and if anyone can remember back that far, Paul watched all of the shows on plane crashes and then choose to tell me about them. I guess that was his own fears faced and dealt with unlike myself, I choose to not think about that on a 14 hour+ flight. Although Paul did put some terrible thoughts in my head. We just couldn't believe that we were going to meet our daughter. Not even those fears wiped the smiles off our face. We laughed and held hands, it almost felt like our honeymoon, in love with our daughter. I sit and type about it and I have to smile for the memories. There isn't another time in my life that I can remember being so anxious and excited and nervous at the same time, for such a long period of time. So I'm going to post pictures of what our little angel from heaven is doing one year later. She is with her Maw maw and Paw paw tonight, they have come back home from Florida for the summer, and she is visiting with them. One year ago today she was only a dream that we had. Now she's our baby girl. We love you Amelia Yi,

  1. Yes Sandy we all remember your fears, but more of your hopes and dreams for the future for your little girl. One year ago we all went through a roller coaster of emotions along with you and Paul and what a ride Amelia Yi has taken us all on. I cannot believe we welcomed her into our lives almost a year ago! Well Amelia you met and exceeded all our expectations. We love you.

  2. A mighty important little girl came into our lives this time last year. All dreams came true, and a precious baby proves that the trip to the east was and still is very worthwhile. We all love Millie... and lily love mom
