A Star is Born

Greetings from sunny and warm Guangzhou!!! We look forward to returning to the great white North soon. Emeline is doing great and is such an easy baby. The first day she wanted me to hold her all the time. She would just stand in one spot if put down. The second day she started to follow me around like a shadow when put down. She would occasionally crack a slight smile. Now , the third and fourth day she is exploring the room , playing with her toys, smiling and laughing. She has a delightful personality that is beginning to emerge. She loves to be tickled and teased with her favorite toy the Moose. She enjoys her bath and loves the ball Eric bought her . She laughs hysterically when we roll it to her. She has warmed up to Eric (despite his "scary" beard) and gives him many beautiful smiles.

Early next week we start processing through the American Consulate which is a step closer to HOME.We miss our girls and all of our friends back home and look forward to seeing the winter wonderland of white which has been showered upon you all.

All of our Love and Hugs ----

  1. Wow so excited for you! your daughter is just beautiful! I dont' know if you remember me but I used to go to CBS about 8 years ago. I miss it still. We also have adopted Samuel from China about 2 and a half years ago! Then we came home and God called us to adopt again. We brought Esther Rose home from Guatamala last year. So excited for your family! It is truly a miracle to adopt and see them change and blossom so much! Samuel just last night was telling me all about china and how he never wants to leave our family again. It was very amazing even at age 3 how much he remembers.

    Well God BLess, Heidi
