Happy Birthday Junie!

Our littlest girl is 4 years old day! It is really sad not to be with her today. We started the process to adopt her before her 3rd birthday, and here we are getting close to our big family day. It has felt like a really long year; and it has been a very busy one at the same time. Delaney and Riley has great school years, doing really well in 4th and 2nd grade. They have had a great time in their sports and other activities. They are so smart and are really excited to be big sisters again. Quinn has had a great, HEALTHY year and gained tremendous independence attending kindergarten this year. She loved her first day of cheer camp yesterday; although she can't do any stunts or tumbling, she gets to yell and that is always a plus for her : )

This year we learned a lot about Junie! She is very girly, likes to have her hair done; she is smart, and is learning a lot in her kindergarten classes. We learned about the care and love that ICC, along with her nannies, gives her and the other kids in her SWI; this is a real blessing, to know that the quality of her care has been so good. In all of her photos she is adorable, her hair is always done up, and she always looks clean and healthy. None of that makes it too much easier not to have her on her birthday, though! We hope that she got her birthday package today, and that she got to share her cake and treats with her friends. This will be her last birthday in the country where she was born, with the people she has known. We could be off to bring her to her family in just a few weeks! And now, the girls and I are off to our first Chinese class.
