Happy 3rd Birthday "Jie Jie"!

"This is the day the Lord has made

(especially for you!)

Let us Rejoice and be glad in it!"

Psalm 118:24

Hello to all our family and "blogger friends"! It's been a long time since my last post! Time just seems to be flying by and it's so hard to believe that we are already into our third month of 2010. The girls have been very busy . . . . . unfortunately January was filled with lots of illness and I never got to post anything. Then came February with my birthday, Valentines Day and Chinese New Year! Here are some pictures to show you all the fun we have been having.

Shu Shu with her new friend Anna . . . . they are both from Hubei Province . . . we think they could be related?

This is actually a very late post . . . . the following pictures are from our FCC "Family Day" event back in November. We celebrated National Adoption Month by having a pot luck dinner together and the girls all participated in learning Chinese Fan dancing. We all had so much fun!
