Affection

This is Sasha's favorite doll

 Sasha named her "Xiao Sasha Jade"
(xiao means 'little')

Sasha asks me for her Xiao Sasha Jade 

when she is tired and wants to go to bed,

she sings "ah ah baby" to her and rocks her to sleep.

Sasha is so loving and affectionate to all of us,

It was clear she was given a lot of love in China

before she joined our family.

Grateful

What could be better than...

Cousins

Together for Thanksgiving

 Just hanging around

Creating a masterpiece

 Swirling and twirling

Being silly together

 

Stepping outside the box

Hard at work in the kitchen

Muncle asleep on the couch

Sharing a wonderful 

Thanksgiving meal

Who's going to do all these dishes?

One Year Brings One More

Chicago 2009

And then...Chicago 2010 !

Finally, you became our sister

Our family is now complete

We’ve been blessed with your angel eyes
And your dancing, busy feet!

Together forever, our lives intertwined
This we do solemnly vow

What pride we feel, as our joy we share
You're our sister now!
