Gotcha Lily

April 2, 2010 at the G & R Ceremony in Vung Tau.  I remember it was a very hot day. I can't believe how much Lily has grown and developed.  I feel so blessed to be her mama.

Couldn't have done this journey without my sister.  Everyone should have a sister like her. She took such good care of both Lily and I and even some of the other families who traveled with us.

Can't believe Lily is 2.5 years already.  She is developing a wonderful personality and I adore how thoughtful she has become. Lately, as I am driving she shouts out from the back seat, "Careful Mama", "Careful the road".  When I cough, sneeze or hiccup she says "Bless You Mama".  When the sweet boy at school hugs her and then pushes her all in the same day she just says to him "Not Nice, Lily, No Push".

When I wake Lily up in the morning as she is such a sleepy head, demands I crawl into her bed for cuddles (such a nice way to wake up).  The first time she looked at me and said "Love You Mama" I completely melted. She is a little social girl yet, she will pull back if she does not feel comfortable.  Holding my hand and walking down the street she will greet the passerby as though she has known them forever with a big "HELLO".

Life is grand!!
