9 years and counting

Mid-Autumn festival
9 years ago
(Sept 18, 2005)
we were pioneers in China.
We were adopting "twins",
yet they weren't "twins"
They were 10 weeks apart.
Our outstanding adoption agency and 
Chinese Liason
performed miracles to allow us to 
adopt two little girls that weren't biologically
related at the same time.
That was unheard of then.
We had to say they were twins even though 
you could tell they look nothing alike
Katie was a couple inches taller then Jenny,
Their face, eyes, skin color are all different too.
Katie and Jenny on the first day of school
 Jenny was 23 1/2 months old when she was adopted.
She grieved hard in China
But loved and continues to love
talking with people about serious topics
especially books
 She tries many different things
and really loves playing the viola,
Rock climbing and cooking.
 Katie was 25 months old when she was adopted
she showed us right away
she is on the go girl.
Continues to love gymnastics and school.

It has been amazing 9 years and can't wait to see what the next 9 years and beyond will be like.
