How love changes one little girl....

Gotcha Day. Pictures from this day break my heart. Sydney's eyes look so sad.

Before Chinese New Year Celebration.

Love this smile!

Sydney loves the lake & swimming pool!

1st day of Mothers Day Out.

Sydney Hope--you have blessed our lives!

What we were doing a year ago....

Hard to believe that this time last year we were freezing in Burrjing! These last 12 months have flown by. I have been looking back at pictures of the first few days with Sydney. She does not even look like the same child. Shows you what love can do for a child!

I pray that more people would take that leap of faith and adopt! And anyone who welcomes a little child like this on my behalf is welcoming me. Matthew 18:5

Freezing! But so excited to finally be in China!

This is my favorite picture that I took in China (obviously not included the ones of Sydney)

Thinking about blowing it up or putting it on a canvas for the house.

Great Wall. Would love to come back here one day.

Awesome!

Merry Christmas

I posted this video in December 2008. Just love this song! And the story behind it.

November Recap

Yup--I'm behind (in so many areas!!). I used to love to blog but it is becoming a chore. Need to fix that. We have become very boring which is fine but I do not have things to post about!!
Our 1 year anniversary with Sydney is coming up! So that should give me something to blog about!

Daddy's girl & Daddy at the Thanksgiving party at school

Pilgrim! Not so thrilled about the hat.

My adorable kids. God has blessed me. Love these kids like crazy!
