Be Safe

To all those on the East Coast, family, friends and everyone
Be Safe
This is Manhattan in the dark...a bit eery.

Things we know about Kailey


I was re-reading for the 999th time Kailey's information we got at referral and thought I would share some of what was given to us:
  • She is a tiny thing, at last medical only 26.5 lbs, which was several months ago, so I bet she had gained some lbs.
  • She was abandoned at the Princess Tomb around 6 months old Shenyang City, Liaoning Province 
  • She is smart 
  • She is introverted and quiet
  • She is a deep sleeper (Woo Hoo...my words not theirs!)
  • She can be obstinate 
  • She loves outdoor activities   
  • She likes to look at herself in the mirror! 
  • She likes to be beautiful and dress up!
  • Favorite toy is dolls
  • She is very helpful with her foster mother, helps carry laundry and will give her mother a match to light the stove (sooo not going to continue with that-we don't play with matches!)
  • She is bed pan trained (still trying to figure exactly what that means) 

My goal is to put a smile on that beautiful face!

I look at this beautiful little girl...my daughter,  and am amazed by God's blessings on us and so very gratefulI just want to kiss those cheeks good night every night for the next 15 years (or until she grows out of it..I never will!)...We missed her first 3+ years so we have some making up for lost time...missed birthdays, holidays, milestones, tears of joy or pain.



Also you will see the 3 rotating pictures as we only have 3 pictures!  But that is ok by me!
