WOW!!!, how did we get to a three month mark of having dani in our lives? it's been a whirlwind, with lot's of lessons, getting used to having a lively five year old in the house. she is most amazing. yesterday, she and i were sitting in the kitchen, hanging out, and she said, "i love you". it was sort of mumbly, and my response was "what?", in which she said again, "i love you, i love you, i love you". i am without words to truly describe having this little girl in our lives. knowing she was born in china, and how does life work, that certain decisions and events are made, results in this special person now being our family?
john and dani are becoming...........well.........brother and sister. i had to stop them arguing in the high school today over my keys and who was the best person to open the car door. there are kind moments between them, as they play video games, or the protective attitude john has when we are out and about, and tonight, watching the presidential debate, with her tickling his head.
dani and alex, huge great BUDS!!! alex has been preoccupied with starting college this week, and dani has missed her, so this afternoon was a time to reconnect, going into the hopefully not so busy weekend.
dani is a mind sponge, and busy learning math, her abc's and actually doing some beginning reading. we had made the decision to do her studies at home, and this is going very well. her english keeps improving, and she wants to know about everything. her new word is "WHY"
chinese class tomorrow!!! and cross country for john. gotta go...............
