This is what stares back at me when "little miss" gets in trouble. After I am through "scolding" her she then opens her hands and says, "peek a boo". Lord help us when she really understands humoring yourself out of a bad situation.
Every call has a beginning. A quiet moment when God whispers a promise to a mother’s heart . A holy place where a father bows and faithfully accepts the journey set before him. A miraculous morning that unexpectedly dawns… Casting its first light on a chosen threshold. A gentle knock..a closed door opens, a sacred invitation sent by the Father.. leads to the other side of the world. Where lonely hearts stare out orphanage windows praying for someone to care.. and then one morning, on an ordinary day an orphan’s life changes... God sends them a second chance...Through you..

Favorite Poem
We are a family now, a whole,of which you are a part,and you are just as much our child as any in our heart. We do not love you differently,nor would we give up less of all that life has given us to bring you happiness.There is no limit to our love,no boundary you might cross,no price you may be asked to pay,no need to fear its loss. We are now one, the five of us,windows of one home. As long as we have life and breath,You’ll never be alone.~Nicholas Gordon

Shelley,
Re your post on our blog:
Our waiting for referral already started once our homestudy was finalized. The dossier is just needed for the court process in Taiwan... and not really absolutely needed until we get our referral. Most of the dossier documents for our agency were a part of the homestudy anyway, and they aren't a big deal. Big difference from China's dossier preparation... and waiting starts after DTC and LID. Hopefully our wait for referral will be six months... think September.
Absolutely precious! She sounds like quite a character (and like you will have your hands full!) :)

Sophia does things like that as well! It's hard to be mad at the little ones when they're just soo cute!!
