Thank you Secret Pal

Many thanks to our Secret Pal for the amazing gifts for Chynna, which was purchased to also help a fellow Adoptive Family to bring home their little girl. Robin does an amazing job sewing outfits for our children and I have been fortunate enough to be an owner of a few of her outfits that I have purchased and my Secret Pal has also purchased for Chynna. She will definitely be a stylish little girl when she comes home.






Thanks Secret Pal. You are the best!!

4 yrs LID today or 2102400 minutes

yes we have been waiting 4 yrs today for the arrival of our Chynna, and we will continue to wait....it is getting closer and we hope we only have about 5 more months. We're waiting baby girl for you to be as ready for us as we are for you!

Thank you Secret Pal You're the Bestest

Sorry I have been so long to post this thank you....I have no excuses but for my camera has been giving me such a fit (looking for a new one now before we go on vacation).



I LOVE THE COLORING BOOKS for Chynna and Mikkel (he's almost old enough to color on them without eating the crayons you gave us)...and I love that it is helping others bring their child home.

You are the best Secret Pal, and I am so blessed to have you looking out for us while we wait and wait and wait for Chynna to come home.

Thank you!

Wacky Wed...the Happy Smiley Test

You Are Kind

You have a broad perspective on life. You are very understanding and forgiving. You prefer a quiet, peaceful existence. You don't like noise in your head - or in the world around you. For you, there's no such thing as too much calm. Having time to think is a gift that you treasure.

You Are a Lucky Person

You are wild, to the point of being reckless. You often act before you think! You are happiest at any given time. You find so much to be happy about that you're usually quite content. You work at a pace that is comfortable to you. You can get more done if you don't burn yourself out. You are a very patient person. You stick with people and things for a lifetime.

Wacky Wed...what funky nail polish are you?

Too funny cuz that is one of the two colors of polish I am currently wearing (the other is purple)

Your Funky Nail Polish Color is Blue

You are a calm and cool person who is content to do your own thing. You tend to get lost in your thoughts. You're usually daydreaming about something, someone, or somewhere you love. You don't take anything or anyone too seriously. You prefer to hang loose whenever possible. You are a deeply introspective person. You're the type most likely to think about why the ocean is blue!

What Funky Nail Polish Color Are You?

45 months waiting....how many more??

Wacky Wed...Cutsie Cupcake Test

You're Intense Cute

People find you cute because you're a big ball of energy. You have many passions and interests. You tend to feel strongly, and you always express yourself clearly. You definitely don't hold back. At times, you can be a bit too moody and mercurial. It's easy to set you off. You sometimes have a little too much energy and enthusiasm, but most people just find that adorable!

Thank you Secret Pal

My Secret Pal is the best, these are the cutest notecards and are greatly appreciated and will be well used.

By purchasing these notecards from bella blush designs, she not only brought a smile to my face, but helped another adoptive family to bring their daughter home from China.

Thank you Secret Pal!!

Wacky Wed...what part of a fairy tale are you?

You Are the Fairy

You are charming, cheerful, and a little bit magical. You make other people's lives better. You are a bit eccentric at times, but you truly care about people in your own way. You are hyper and restless. It drives you crazy to sit still, and you are usually the first to leave any event. You are unpredictable and flighty. No one can guess what you'll be up to next ... or where you'll be!

What Part of a Fairy Tale Are You?

44 months LID

Another month closer to Chynna...don't know how many more, but we will continue to wait!

Wacky Wed...The Baby Animal Test

You Are Sophisticated and Aloof

You're the type of person who actually enjoys keeping people guessing. You like being a mystery. Other people find you to be a little intimidating. You are hard to get to know. To be honest, you've never cared about what other people think of you. Their approval will never make you happy. People do talk about you behind your back, and you're good with that. It's the price you pay for being flamboyant!

The Baby Animal Test

Wacky Weds are back...which of the 7 dwarfs are you?

You Are Happy

You are an inspiring and uplifting person. Your positive attitude has taken you far in life. It's important to you that everyone gets along. You can't stand confrontation. You are outgoing and friendly. You naturally put people at ease just by being around. You want to make the world a better and happier place. You are willing to work hard to make things better.

Which of the Seven Dwarfs Are You?

Gung Hay Fat Choy! (and 43 Months waiting)

Happy Year of the Tiger!! This may be the Year Chynna is born, and hopefully by next New Year we will at least have seen her face.

Today is also 43 Months waiting....and the wait continues to grow, but we know it is all in the right timing...she is just waiting for the right moment to reveal herself to us.

Meanwhile the Peanut started walking on his own yesterday and is so very proud of himself (as we are of him). Video will be posted soon!

Until then, take care of yourselves and enjoy this wonderful new Year!
