It's been 12!

It has been 12 months that our paperwork has been logged in China. I tried not to think (obsess) about it too much.

My feelings were of mixed emotions. Glad to get through a big milestone but then WHY does it have to be this long?

To be the eternal optimist (which is always challenged) I went to the closet with gifts from friends & family for our China girl. It is packed! see below!
She is blessed and probably not even born yet - this chick has more "stuff" than most children--- her brothers were not so well gifted this early:) Yeah, that's the way it should be for our Asian princess anyway.


I have put together a little rhyme for this occasion.SUNG to 12 days of Christmas.



On the 1st month of LID china girl rec'd...
One lady bug toy.

Most of these are handy downs from my nieces but they made it easier to put together the song.
