Fun times
in Oregon.
Reading to Papa and Nana.
One of our weekly hikes
Watch out for rattle snakes! (We heard two, saw one, and also two other snakes.)
No snakes on today’s hike.
But lots and lots of flowers,
And incredible views!
We Love you so much! Thanks for being such a great Mom!!
Hope you have a Great Mothers Day!!
Five years ago we met and held this precious girl for the first time!
She is still “Sweet, Adorable, and Cute.”
She’s also Kind, Thoughtful, and Smart.
And she still has that infectious smile and laugh!
Miah, you have brightened our lives.
You are a wonderful big sister to your mei mei.
And you are a special blessing to your Mom and Dad! Wo men ai ni, Miah!
This week we passed a huge milestone!
Ami has now been a part of our family longer than she was in her orphanage. Xue’er had been there for 21 months when she finally met and was adopted into her forever family!
She has now been Ami Davis for 21 months. A lot has happened in her life in those 21 months! This little girl has come so far.
I think of her surgeries, recoveries, and many doctor appointments, and learning to speak and be understood. She already knew independence, survival, and persistence.
She has learned Love, Family, and Stability.
We are the privileged ones to be her family. I’m so glad we answered God’s call.
Beautiful cherry blossoms this year, but the two pink blooms in front are my favorite!
Grandma was very happy to find the guinea hens’ nests before they started setting. This one had 23 eggs. We found another with 38 eggs! Some of these eggs are destined to become omelets now…if one can crack their tough shell.
The girls enjoyed their excursion around the track with the birthday girl!
Now Ami can say she’s been on a train!
