Yesterday I spent the day with the most adorable little girl, Lily. I met her with her parents one afternoon several months ago while out shopping and fell in love with her. Over the past several months, we have become friends through attending various activities through a local support group of other families that have adopted from China. It has been a long time since I have spent any length of time with a little one and the experience was much needed and thoroughly enjoyed. She and I had a blast pretend playing, doing an art project, singing, dancing, watching videos, and reading books. She became friends with our little yorkie, Cannolli and as you can see in the picture he fell in love with her too. Lily's parents will soon be traveling to China again to adopt another little girl. Hopefully soon after they return, we will be traveling to bring home our little Katherine. I can't wait to see them all playing together and am looking forward to the new experiences and friendships we will gain from the large community of other families that have adopted children from China.
