A Sweet Heart...

Emme-8068Edit2

It didn't take long to learn that Emme Jade was born with a beautiful heart. At pre-school pick-up yesterday, one of the Directors from school went out of her way to tell me that she is amazed at how happy and joyful Emme is. I have to agree with her.. It doesn't matter what it is. When we arrive anywhere that requires separation from us, Emme is quick to say "goodbye" to us, and "hello" to what is ahead.. Always with a smile and with confidence. It's a special gift for any toddler! I think it's unique to a little girl who has been home less than 3 months.

I wish I could say Emme's behavior is something I can take credit for. But truthfully, Emme was born with a joyful heart.. And, she was clearly very loved in Yangzhou.. Together that combination has created a healthy and well adjusted little girl!

November 18th we will be home 3 months.. What a blessing these first days with her have been! I took these photos of her after school yesterday... I am getting her used to wearing a hat. Soon she won't leave home without one!

Have a great weekend!!

It's wonderful how well Emme is doing for her first three months home!!!
