What a whirlwind for our new daughter, so many firsts in her first two weeks, I should be keeping a list, but it seems that everything is new for her. She is taking to American life like a champ though, and I must say that she will try most things without hesitation.
We are all a bit tired as we try to sort through our new routines, and our new life. I can say this.....so far so good, and I am not kidding.
The hardest thing about adopting an older child so far is knowing when to set the boundaries.
Redeemed daddy is the "good guy" though, so I enlist his help when I need immediate compliance.
Some favorites of our new addition:
fingernail polish,
fried chicken,
rice
Wii
swimming pool
Be blessed,
we are,
RM

I have been gone on vacation myself!! I am so glad that things are going well. I know what you mean about setting bounderies, it is tough, but we have to do it. Eden is a pouter and none of my other kids are but that has been hard for me!
