Update on Orphanage Donations

A few weeks ago I invited you to be involved in donating educational materials to the orphanage school.  Take a look at what you did!

Thank you!  These things will make such a difference to the teachers and the children!

NOW I'm ready to go to China

Our bags have been ready to go for a few days now but there was one small thing keeping me from feeling ready to go.

My beautiful grand daughter, Miriam was born yesterday.  We were so hoping she would arrive before we left the country.  Ok, NOW we are ready to go.

Growing Feet...

Growing feet leads to this:

Don't worry!  Jen didn't break a leg.  She is simply outgrowing her AFOs. (Ankle Foot Orthosis)  She was casted at therapy this week to measure her for new ones.  She chose a kitty cat design with yellow foam this time.  Snazzy.....

I love how she can smile through the medical appointments now!  It wasn't that long ago that she SCREAMED when she saw anyone who vaguely resembled a doctor.

Jennifer is NINE!

She anticipated the day for weeks, and it was finally her turn!  Happy Birthday, Jen!

More Goodies for the Orphanage School!

I wasn't expecting any deliveries today, but it appears that Amazon was in a hurry to get them to us!  Thrilled to have more educational things to take to the school in Pat, Abigail and Jen's orphanage!  Thanks gals!  Keep them coming and I"ll keep finding room in the suitcases!  http://www.amazon.com/gp/baby-reg/ref=?ie=UTF8&lid=1BEFGESV2THMA
