The butterfly princess & Lil Miss Ladybug: In Search of Spring
http://parentingadoptedchildren.blogspot.com/2009/02/february-news-not-so-cheerful.html
The butterfly princess and Lil Miss Ladybug. Saturday, February 7, 2009. In Search of Spring. They are the sunshine in my day, and the best things that ever happened to me. This has been a particularly difficult winter as the three of us have had a myriad of illnesses ranging from sinus infections to bronchitis. If only spring would get here. Then at least, going outside would be more bearable, and the cold season will be beyond us. Hope you're getting outside today. It's beautiful! Welcome to my blog.

Sunday, March 23, 2008. Friday, March 21, 2008. A tender moment. . . One night last week, my youngest daughter, woke up crying in her sleep. I didn't hear her which is unusual because motherhood has given me a very keen sense of hearing. For whatever reason, I didn't hear her cry, but her big sister, who share...Mei-M...

The butterfly princess and Lil Miss Ladybug. Friday, February 20, 2009. Tuesday, February 10, 2009. Do you remember gym class? When I was a teenager, I hated gym class. I thought it was boring, and I resented the smelly uniforms and numerous laps that we had to run. For me, it simply wasn't a pleasant experience. Today, I am working in a middle school where I get to see kids participating in gym class every day. Get to see you ask? Saturday, February 7, 2009. In Search of Spring. Welcome to my blog.

The butterfly princess and Lil Miss Ladybug. Sunday, September 28, 2008. Deep into the Terrific Twos! Yes, my friends, we are deep into the. Er, um, terrific twos! Little sister literally whines, demands, gets angry, and then cries all day long. Whatever her sister or I have, she wants it. The item could be a glass of water, toy, pen, cell phone, etc. It goes something like this. LS: (Seeing Mommy using a pen), "Pen? ME: I will get you a pencil in a minute. LS: "No, pen.".

How I wish Guangzhou wasn't a 16 hour plane ride! If it were closer, I would go back and buy my daughters more lovely dresses. If anyone knows where to purchase Chinese dresses here in the United States, please let me know. Wednesday, January 21, 2009. Here's a recap of my week so far:. Your Own Child: Any ch...

Little Sister did an awesome job wearing her big girl (Elmo) panties all week, with only a few accidents here and there. I lost 4 pounds in two weeks, watching what I eat, detoxing, and getting on my treadmill again. (It's been two years! My "To Do" List became much shorter this week.
