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 grateful.  I 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!
