Favorite Photo Friday

Christmas Card pix 2011 387 wm

For years, as much as I loved Christmas, there was always something missing.
A big something!
Besides the real reason for the celebration - the magic of Christmas is made for children. And, even though I'm really just a little kid in a grown-up body - sharing that magic makes it real. (I mean.....I enjoy my own company but it's hard to have a party with yourself.)
So, each year for the past 7 years, I am so very grateful that I have children to share the party with. Here is my Milana...looking deliciously edible. She has really come into her own lately and I'm enjoying discovering all of her uniqueness.
Eight more days till Christmas!
Everybody ready?

Hi, I'm Wanda. I am a happy woman, wife to Danny for...oh....lots a years and finally Mom to THE most adorable little girl from Hunan, China - Dahlia. And now we have been blessed again with another daughter, Milana, from Zhejiang, China. (The 2 best things I've ever done!) We live in the Montreal area. After a loooonnngg wait for Dahlia's little sister Milana (pronounced - Mee-lana, like banana), we finally brought her home in August 2009. Dahlia came to us in Nov 2004 (at 20 months of age)and a year later we began the application for another baby - at the time the waiting period was around 8 months. Almost 4 years later (say what!?!)we, at last, brought Milana home. This began as the story of our journey to bring Milana home and life with her big sister, Dahlia. It now continues as we live as a family of four!
God. My (growing) family. Hangin' out with my girlies. My wonderful friends (you know who you are!). To laugh (out loud and a lot!). Music. Painting. Hugs. Long chats with my buds. My garden. To read (ha...when I can!). Sunshine. Spring, Spring and more Spring. Building things. Cooking. Decorating. Parties (ahem). The internet. Life. Movies. A.I. Dancing with the stars. So you think you can dance. Travel. Umm..did I say laughing my head off. Oh Gee...everything actually!!
