New Traditions

We started a new family tradition this Christmas. Every holiday season we are going to purchase a new ornament in honor of Kai. We dediced to leave it hanging all year to remind us of her & purchase a new one the following season. Once she is finally home with us she will be able to hang her ornaments and she will know she has been in our hearts all along!

This beautiful Pagoda ornament is the one we chose for Christmas 2008.

Kai's Second Gift

Kai had a gift waiting under the Christmas Tree at my parents. It was the cutest UPS Package Car peddle car. It even had a personalized licence plate with her name on it! Now all we need is her here to ride it.

Kai's First Present

Today Kai received her first gift ever. Maris gave her the most adorable stuffed turtle. It is a character from the children's book Counting in the Garden. The turtle was so pretty & had the most beautiful illustrations on the hang tag. I found a website for the author & she has tons of wall art as well. I think I will have to order the Trey the Turtle wall art!
