Awwwww! Kids say the sweetest things!
Lately C has taken to playing in the backyard (and independently, too!). Today she was out there until the last possible minute, begging "just five more minutes!" off her dad every five minutes until the sun was disappearing behind the trees. At one point, I decided to go check on her, and found that she'd been plucking flowers and leaves off our various plants. This is a normal state of affairs around our house ... D and I are convinced she has a future career in horticulture!
At any rate, we moved her Little Tykes kitchen outside at the beginning of summer, and these bits of plant are usually part of some fabulous new "dish" she's making, so I asked if she was cooking something. She said no, and very excitedly urged me over to look at what she'd done. A circle of bits of petals, leaves, sticks and more. "What is that?" I asked. "Magic," she said. "To bring my sister home faster."
I swear, I teared up!
I can't wait to see my two little girls playing together!
(And by the by, I've added quite a few updates to my adoption blog, including pics of Isabella now that we have our Pre-Approval. If anyone wants a peek, just visit Red Thread Chronicles)

Julie, that's so exciting that you got PA! I hope Isabella will be with you soon--and so, apparently, does C :-)
Thanks! Yes, she's very excited about being a big sister! Hopefully she'll be as excited when she realizes that she has to share Center Of The Universe-ness :))
