Our Beautiful Charlotte

C'mon! I can't stop looking at these pictures. One of Connor's baseball buds  Mom's is also quite the photographer and gave us these photos yesterday. Besides skill, it goes to show you what a really great camera can do. I used to love my digital camera, now I am thinking of "accidentally" dropping it. There really doesn't have to be an accident, I drop it daily anyway. To the point I have to beg Connor not to tell Peter that I did, we are on our third camera this year! But I have a blog!!!We have to remember EVERY moment of their childhood. And so it goes....

I love these pics!!

Sports and the biggest fan

Charlotte was Connor's biggest cheerleader this season for travel soccer and little league.  She loved playing on the sidelines, local playgrounds, and of course, all the the attention she received from all the fans. Connor by the way did great too. He is getting more serious about playing and being part of a team. Peter was once again his coach for baseball, and I think Peter had more fun than all of us.

Ladybugs are a symbol of adopting a child from China. During our looong 5 year wait, I couldn't help but think of our daughter to be every time I  saw one.  Last week Charlotte and I had some down time while we waited for Connor to finish soccer practice. We headed to our local beach and during our walk, we stumbled upon a ladybug. Charlotte was fascinated and I was brought back to a time when I didn't know who my daughter was, just that she was dream waiting to happen. I will never forget our journey to Charlotte, but just to have live a typical day in our life, finding ladybugs, makes me appreciate our journey so much more.
