Gimmie A...

P...O...O...L...

What's That Spell?...

Happiness, of course

She's more fish like than she is human!!!!!
Go Bulldogs!!!!
(I hope this still fits this fall so she can wear it to some basketball games.)

Over & over I've had folks asking how she's doing. My answer has been that she's doing pretty well. And why are people surprised? I mean this is what we've been praying for for over 4 years now, right? Why are we so shocked when God answers in mighty ways?
She's sleeping well, eating well, learning English a little too fast for me (I don't want her to lose the Mandarin!!!!), leaning how to be a part of a family, learning to use manners correctly (which is the cutest little thing ever), learning how to fight with her big brothers (okay - so she already had that one figured out - I'm guessing she was pretty bossy at the orphanage too ;0). I could go on & on but I won't. She is adjusting to life as a Morris. Nothing is perfect, especially children (a good friend told me that tonight & I just love it!!!! Thanks Teresa.) Being a parent isn't easy no matter how they came to be a part of the family. We are all adjusting to life as a 6 member family. It's challenging, fun, difficult, exciting, tiring, uplifting, & exhausting all at the same time. And I wouldn't change it for anything. wink
