3 years ago.....

Three years ago we brought home our sweet Sofia Alma LiYi from Guanzhou China. It's hard to believe how fast the time has gone by. She has grown so much. Our lives have been changed forever by the gift of her in our lives.

Her welcoming group remains to be her closest friends. "Her" Jeanne is "betest bid grl friend"

This was one of the first weeks picture. She didn't want to be held but would snuggle in real close.

She still remains silly, silly, silly.









She loves to eat. Her favorite is frosting, pizza, noodles and goldfish still.





She is a total mama's girl! This is a rare picture. I appreciate the mama girl thing since Lize is a daddy's girl. When were out together Sofi like to tell people "We're the ladies"!







She loves to fly now but still hates riding in the car.






She has the greatest imagination. I love to listen and watch her play. Her creativity is amazing.








Her favorite place in the "whole wold" is the beach. I can't believe that God thought I was the best choice for Sofia but I'm not giving her back and I wouldn't change a thing! Thank you God!!!
