This blog began with our journey to China when we received our adopted daughter and third child, Alexandra. The lady bug is the common symbol, or mascott for adopted Chinese daughters. The blog has since evolved into a journal of our trials, triumphs, joys and complete loss of sanity (that is often restored by copious amounts of chocolate or beer- taken only on an as needed basis, of course), as we embrace daily life with four beautiful little children.

Good start to 2012

Ah, what a little Florida sunshine will do for the soul.  Not to mention, for the body!  Our girls learned to swim in Grandma and Peepa's swimming pool.  Four days in the pool to practice whenever they want....  hundreds saved in swimming lessons!  Way to go, girls.
Another highlight was watching the sunset over the Gulf of Mexico.  Not too many opportunities to watch the sunset over the sea on the east coast- I was thrilled!

Manatees!
