2 Years Ago

2 years ago tomorrow, we got the call telling us that we had been matched with a little girl from Guangdong province...our sweet Megan...and our lives were forever changed. We can't imagine our life without her and thank the Lord daily for the gift he has given to us. What a blessing she is to all who know her!

Happy Birthday, Aunt Jenny!

Happy Birthday, Aunt Jenny! We wish we could celebrate with you today...oh and I promise to post the rest of the pictures of your time here with us soon! Think of that as your birthday present! Love ya!

Fun in Idyllwild

Next week, school starts for Carolyn so we decided to take a little vacation trip to Idyllwild before things get crazy! We drove up on Saturday and had a fun day Sunday hiking, shopping in town, and at times just being lazy. Tomorrow, we will be taking a tram from Palm Springs up two and a half miles to enjoy the San Jacinto State Park.

Here are some pictures...

Couldn't believe it!

We had just gotten down to the last few minutes of Megan's bath when she grabs her bath crayons and declares, "I wanna white!" So, I asked her, "What do you want to write?" "My led-ahs!" Usually that means that I write the letter (always in blue) and then she does this cute little blob in green next to it. Tonight, however, she copied my "A" pretty darn well, in my humble opinion! I was floored! For the "B," she did the stick and I helped her with the rest. The "D, E, and F" were done solo...

Our Beautiful Girl

I've been playing with Adobe Photoshop tonight and thought I'd post my efforts...not bad...a little dark, but it'll do! Megan is now 2 months away from her 3rd birthday. If you ask her how old she is she'll tell you 2 and 2/3, which is too cute. She'll also tell you that her birthday is in October. Her other achievement of the summer is successful potty training. Yay!
