we have been busy- my mom's birthday with her sister, soccer, cheer, gardening, riding her pony kayla, farmstead's, even though we live on one, growing 6 inches since she came home last august, re-adoption, and hearing about her stories from ethiopia, these are not happy one's, she does not want to go back, let's just say she was mistreated by her family and teachers, however, she is extremely happy and tells me everyday how she loves us so, her joy is remarkable, God is GREAT and we are so thankful for her!!!!! by the way justin bieber is her favorite, oh geez
