8 Months

Today marks the eighth month since Miah became part of our family. I can't say enough how blessed we are to have her as our daughter. She is such a sweet loving little girl. Tonight as I was putting her to bed I held her and rocked her as she cuddled right in with her head on my shoulder...just like it is the most natural thing in the world. I missed so much during her first two years of life, but still the bond and connection between us is something far greater than I will ever understand. It makes me sad to think of her birth mother. What a sacrifice she made. Sometimes I feel a twinge of guilt over what her loss has meant for us. I pray that she has a peace about her decision.


First taste of ice cream at a DQ in China. When I look back at these photos it is amazing how much she has grown over the past eight months!
