Mother's Day

This day meant so much to me. Don, Adelyn and I shared this day together as a family. We started the day by going to church. When our priest said for all the mothers to stand, I couldn't have been more proud and excited to stand. The rest of the day we just spent together. It rained all day so we stayed indoors then went out for dinner.

Daddy gave Adelyn and I matching Mother/Daughter bracelets for Mom's Day. Adelyn was so gentle with hers and actually kept it on for 2 days!





Here are some more photos from April. We are trying to be diligent about posting, but we were just too busy playing!!!!
We celebrated Daddy's birthday on April 28th, as you can see, Adelyn helped decorate the cake.

Also, our neighbors had a shower for us. Adelyn just glowed! She played all afternoon with the other kids. They blew bubbles, played with chalk, decorated cookies, etc... Thank you Kathy, Angie, Donna and Becky!!


Adelyn was invited to "speak" to our niece's (Jenni) 2nd grade class in Estill County at West Irvine Elementary School. Jenni had taught the children about Chinese culture prior to our travel so the class was excited to meet Adelyn. She was dressed in her traditional Chinese dress and slippers. She walked around waving to the children as Mom answered their questions.
Finally, we made our first trip to the Louisville Zoo. The animals were great, but she really enjoyed the daffodils.




When we all wear sunglasses, Adelyn says....COOOOOOL (with her thumb up).
