Special Friends

Remember these cuties from this post last year?


Last week, Bethany had a second playdate with her two friends N and E. They may not know it yet, but these girls have a very special bond that I hope will develop into very special and meaningful friendships in the future.




Contrary to what many outside of the adoption community may think, adoption is not a one time event where you bring your child home, they become part of your family, and that's the end of it. Adoption is something that will follow these little ones for the rest of their lives, and one day these little girls will come face to face with their adoption stories. As their parents, we will by all means do everything we can to be a source of love, comfort and encouragement to them, but nothing will quite compare to having someone who knows what it's like to be in your shoes.


I am so very thankful for the special bond these little ones share and for the friendships I have with their Mommies!

*thanks for sharing all your pictures with us judy!*

Bethany turns 2 - Part One


To my ittle girl who I first came to know through pictures and updates,

to this cutey patootie who I now can't imagine life without....

Happy birthday to my sweet girl Bethany!
We love you so much.

This afternoon we had our monthly play date with Bethany's little pals at our house. Since it was only a day after her birthday, I thought we could have a mini celebration as well.  








 I was so busy having fun that I forgot to take a group picture of all the little ones except for this shot, which is not only out of focus, but missing one of the girls. Sorry Naomi! :(

Friends - Old and New

Meet Lisa.

Meet Judy.

I first met Lisa and Judy at church when I was in college. After they moved on to different churches, I only saw them occasionally at various social events.

Recently, we were reunited once again thanks to a very special event in our lives. All three of us brought our little girls home from Korea within the past year! We decided to meet up for a playdate, but it essentially turned into a photo shoot with our three precious girls.

"Hi. What's your name?"

 New Friends
Naomi, Bethany and Ella
