And while we're making merry - there's nothing like some beautiful Christmas carols.

This CD just blows me away. David Phelps has the voice of an angel, to me - the best voice in the world. If you don't know him - treat yourself and catch his "O Holy Night" on You Tube. The boy can 'sang' !!!


Dahlia was so excited this year to be Mommy's sous-chef in the kitchen for some Christmas baking. She kept hugging me saying "this is the best day of my life".

And Dahlia gets her own little tree in her room. Milana has a few decorative pieces in hers too but up high - you know - as in "look with your eyes"!

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!!
