These aren't my favorite pictures of the day, but they sure do capture my favorite emotions of the day. We took Kara to a local splash park this afternoon and I think she liked it. Hmmmmmmm...... what do
you think? :)
If I had a bottle big enough, I'd bottle this up and send a little to each of you.
I hope your weekend is filled with many moments like this.

I love your new header Michelle. I also love the smile on Kara's face. She is such a gorgeous little girl. Take your time trying to get your groove back, because your family comes first. Everyone will be here waiting patiently. You and your family are truly loved by all, and so worth the wait.
(((HUGS)))
Great photos! Looks like so much fun! Take care.

These are really great pictures. They tell a fun story and freeze a special moment forever.
Don't rush.........we'll still be here.
Michelle,
Bai Hua (Wen's friend from Chongqing) recently heard about your lovely daughter and cannot wait to meet her. She had a baseball game and could not make the pool party or we would have met there. Please email me to set something up. We are available on Tuesday this week and next week we have Tuesday and Thursday. I think we will be around next weekend (July 25th) as well. We look forward to meeting your family!

Oh I am quite familiar with that look of pure joy. Marissa has it anytime we do something new!
Wow, those have got to be some of your BEST photos ever! Seriously...when you capture that kind of bliss.. it is the BEST.
Wow. I really, really can't wait to bring my girl home.
You just keep on enjoying your sweet girl Michelle...I have tears in my eyes.
No worries, dear friend, we miss you too, but take all the time in the world, we are so joyful for your family! I LOVE your pictures, I LOVE your girls. I love how big and even bigger than life you can make an image and I feel it right here so many miles away. You move me!
Hugs and kisses to you all,

WOW these photos are AMAZING!
Michelle,
Welcome home!!!! I am finally catching up with you since you have been home. It has been a blessing for me to see how well Kara is adjusting. Actually, how well you are all adjusting. I love the new blog header photo! They are so beautiful together!!! I pray that you get the much needed sleep you need to get back on track. One forgets how difficult re-entry from China can be. You need to post one of those "pure joy" photos of Kara over at Mamarazzi!!! She is glowing with the joy that only love can bring!
Congratulations!
~Diana
Looks like PURE joy to me!!! So glad to see her so happy with her new family:)
Hugs, Ashley

God Bless,
