Month 6!

To describe all that we’ve experienced in the past 6 months would take too many words to be practical for a blog. Someday, Steve, Lanhua and I will record this experience in greater detail and share it with those who are interested. In the meantime, I’ll just say that the past 6 months have been absolutely fascinating. Everyday presents with a new milestone, achievement, challenge and discovery. I can’t imagine our life without Lanhua. She is a part of our minds, hearts and souls. She's an incredible kid.

Lanhua has grown ~3 inches since she arrived in the United States (trying to figure-out what to feed is no longer an issue!).
Although she’s somewhat reticent about trying to speak English, her comprehension is amazing (~75% of what we talk about, she generally understands).


She’s no longer camera shy.
She sings and laughs and plays everyday.
