Warming my little heart was when I saw Hannah Currie (DeEtte's daughter) and she screamed "Tricia" and came running and gave me a big hug!  I just love this little girl - we are good buddies!  I was also able to finally meet Addie Lu Nails as Alicia and Jeremy were there from Decatur.  She is just beautiful and oh so smart.

 

It was also a delight to meet the parents and children of those I have followed along to China with their blogs.  The Weekleys, Sonya Hodge and the Downings.  Their little ones are beautiful.

 

It was also a joy to meet Brooks and Troy Duell (may have messed up the last name).  They are just logged in and found out they were pregnant on the day their paperwork was sent in!  Congratulations and you two are going to make awesome parents to both children!  Brooks hang in there - we have all been through the emotional ups and downs of adoptions - of course retail therapy helped me!!!!

 

Lifeline, thank you for celebrating each year.  I hope next year I will have Maggie to bring with me!
