Evergreen Baby: "It's Nice Day"
http://evergreenbaby.blogspot.com/2011/09/its-nice-day.html
After the long road from infertility to adoption, little Pinecone is finally here! Without even realizing it, she is just who we were waiting for! Thursday, September 29, 2011. One of Pinecone's favorite things to say these days is:. Sigh) It's nice day. She says it whether it is pouring down rain and we are soaked or if it is sunny and beautiful out. She mostly says it when we are outside. She knows. What makes a nice day? Being outside with the people and animals you love. How beautiful she is! Im jeal...

Letters to our someday baby became a blog about life as a new adoptive mom…. August 23, 2011 in adoption.
