One year ago...

One year ago I became mommy to Xiu Fu Xin...which was the happiest and most life altering day of my life (up to this point).

XinXin has come so far...from a little girl who couldn't sit up by herself, to an active toddler who doesn't sit still long enough to get photos taken and whose newest trick is to strip out of her pajamas. She is my first thought in the morning and last thought at night. She brings joy and happiness to my life. Her smile makes me smile, her laugh makes me laugh, and her tears rip out my heart. She is the daughter of my heart and the center of my universe.

Happy Family Day to Xiu Fu Xin, all of her orphanage sisters and Leo!!
