What can I say about this girl?
She’s amazing.
She’s adorable.
Obviously.
And, in case you couldn’t tell from the pictures, she’s pretty stinkin’ smart, too.
She eats.
She sleeps.
She laughs.
She plays.
What’s not to love?
When I was talking to my sister this morning, she asked me what the kids thought of Miss Vivi.
So I asked Sophie, who Vivi had been shadowing all morning….
“Sophie? What do you think of your new little sister?”
Without hesitation Sophie answered, “She’s awesome.”
I couldn’t have said it better myself.
I agree… awesome pretty much sums iot up š She is absolutely precious! Thanks so muc for sharing your journey to China with us!

She takes my breath away!!! So beautiful! I love her personality, it so shines through the pictures. Such a happy go lucky little gal.
I can't remember how I found your blog, but it was perfect timing when I did. We are in the paperwork process for our 2nd child from China, but we will have 5 children in all. The daughter we adopted 2 years ago has totally rocked our world with joy beyond our imagination. My husband and I keep talking about how inspiring you and your husband are. I get excited to read every post. Thanks for sharing your beautiful daughter.
that just IS awesome. welcome home :O)
I am in AWE!! She is beautiful and I just SHARE in your joy at having her home!!!
Vivi is absolutely precious…and awesome too! Thanks for sharing your life with us!
She is so darling! So happy for y'all! š
There is no charge for awesomeness… or attractiveness.
(Sorry. Couldn't resist. Favorite line from Kung Fu, Panda.)
Glad to see Vivi is so awesome! But then, we already knew she would be.
Oh, she IS awesome! Sophie is so wise!! Looks like Miss Vivi has already taken claim to her throne (or as some people call it – the kitchen counter)..
Couldn't agree more!! She IS awesome!!!!
OH, there is not question I am falling in love right here watching her enjoy her new family.
This child has a gift, you know…she can wrap people around her little finger with just one look!

Hugs,
Dita
