Now & Then - Day 3 in China
Yesterday when I picked up Ruby from her BSF (Bible Study Fellowship) 2 year old class, she came running to greet me with the Mother's Day card she had made for me... She wrapped her arms around me with a big smile and said, "I Wuv You, and I Missed You Mama..."! With tears in my eyes I held that precious girl so tight... I will cherish my first handmade Mother's Day card from Ruby Mei and that moment in time forever! Looking back two years we still had not met the tiny girl that would change our lives forever.
We were attending an incredible Christian Worship Service, shopping for Jade, and climbing the Great Wall. We were only two days away from Ruby Tuesday now...
Thanks for re-living our trip with us... Jeff and I were just saying we are so thankful we documented it then. We would never remember it all... Thanks Joe & Jen!
Blessings,

Wow... what wonderful memories from China!! Like you, I am SO glad I journaled during those times. Such precious memories would be a tragedy to forget!
And what a special gift you received from Miss Ruby, those mother-daughter moments are priceless!
Like you said...that Mothers Day moment with Ruby will be forever etched in your mind and heart:-). What a blessing!
As I read your journal entry from 2years ago i could feel your anticipation! Wonderful job journaling, and the pictures are magnificent!
Thanks for sharing...oh, and btw, Ruby is one lovely lady!!!!
Ruby is too sweet - that made me tear up, too!
