 Meredith LOVES to color and she is really good at it too!  I am quite amazed!  Please notice that Patch, the puppy dog is also coloring.  She had to set him up before coloring herself!!!
 BIG GIRL bed!  Now that we are done with diapers (outside of night time) we decided that moving out of the crib was the next step.  Her crib mattress is on the floor until we get the last piece to turn her crib into a toddler bed.  I didn't want to take the crib apart until we were certain she would stay in bed!

 The girls playing!

I Don't Have Your Eyes





Written By Carrie Kitze


I Don't Have Your Eyes...   Family connections are vitally important to children as they begin to find their place in the world. For transracial and transcultural adoptees, domestic adoptees, and for children in foster care or kinship placements, celebrating the differences within their families as well as the similarities that connect them, is the foundation for belonging. As parents or caregivers, we can strengthen our children’s tie to family and embrace the differences that make them unique. Each child will have their own story and their own special place to belong. This beautifully illustrated and uplifting book, for the 2-5 set, will help to create the intimate parent/caregiver and child bond that is so important. While others may notice the physical differences between us on the outside, inside we are the same.
