Gotcha Day - we meet our daughter -Changsha, Hunan Gotcha Day - we meet our daughter -Changsha, Hunan

Video duration: 486 seconds

With all the chaos. This isn't a pretty video with music and fluff... (if you want the music, see this video: http://www.youtube.c om/watch?v=PF0iSXi4x BY ) This one is with all the noise, chaos and mayhem that accompanies a Gotcha day. I watch this video and wonder that I was able to remember as much as I did.

June 14, 2004 Adoption Day - Late afternoon playtime June 14, 2004 Adoption Day - Late afternoon playtime
Posted by: quanyin04

Video duration: 572 seconds

We took our daughter to the playroom to discover what she could and couldn't do. Her referral information appeared to be pretty far off - considering she was saying words on her own (in the video she says "Wah too", which is Mandarin baby talk for "mine") and not just imitating words as the referral stated. Also, her fine motor skills were excellent... not pointed out in her referral.

A group played music and one person was clogging. We had fun watching - and it looked like she was having fun dancing. OH! To be 20 years old again and to dance like this would be so much fun.

It starts early, folks. It's fun, they learn they can talk with you about anything, and you build up trust and love. This was done in February this year. I love her so much.

June 20 2004 - Father\ June 20 2004 - Father's Day in Guangzhou
Posted by: quanyin04

Video duration: 481 seconds

Here we are having fun with Kenzie on Father's day. Her personality is in full bloom on this day. Just too funny and cute. You also get to hear our banter... I am my usual sweet self (read that as "bitchy") and Roy just ignores it or makes fun of me. It's the only way we could have stayed married for so long... he never takes anything I do seriously.

I am up at night quite often and had decided to try and take advantage of the moment to ramble on about China and international adoption. It only skims the topic, but if anyone wants to direct questions about China and IA to me either in the comments or in a message, please do so and I'll see about making another video to answer the questions.

Doing the Dishes Doing the Dishes
Posted by: quanyin04

Video duration: 361 seconds

Teaching children responsibility and helping them mature and become part of a family. Kenzie loves to "do dishes" - this is her fifth time since she began to do this in 2006... so it's not a regular thing. But she feels like she's helping her Memaw. She feels pride and accomplishment.

Kenzie's daycare puts on a Christmas program with the kids. It actually was part of their Sunday services. We had a great time there! Although Kenzie looked like a deer caught in the headlights during the whole program.
