We are so in love!

Mia is doing so well adjusting, we are just so in love with her. Everyday her heart softens and she lets us in a little at a time, if she could only know how she has filled our hearts. She is so smart and very observant of what is going on around her. Her appetite is getting better everyday-thank goodness, she is so skinny. When we first got Mia she had on 3 pairs of pants, 4 sweaters and a big jacket –which were all soaking wet from her sweat. When we got her to our room and got all her clothes off it was shocking to see how skinny she was. We had hoped that they were feeding her more than the last update we had gotten 5 months ago but the paperwork we got listed she was eating pretty much the same things-rice, rice milk, biscuits… no mention of meat and vegetables. We have found that she loves chicken, bananas, apples and well just about anything we have her sleeping in our bed with us for bonding and it’s wonderful and wouldn’t have it any other way!She is sleeping better now, last night we all had a great nights sleep-yahoo! We had a great day today shopping on the walking street and we went to a beautiful local park where the locals practice tai-chi and fan dances, it’s great to watch. My absolute favorite thing about today is hearing Mia’s big laugh- it’s so cute!
