First day of school!

Well, the day came & went & we have started school!!! Both Lilee & Samuel were excited to start & woke up nice & early this morning with no problems!! I was planning to walk Samuel into school the first day because he has no clue where to go, Lilee on the other hand wanted no help & she wanted to walk in herself, thank you very much. Well, as we are walking into school with school supplies in hand & with the thousands (it seemed) of people Lilee takes one look around and pretty much DEMANDS that I walk her in too!! So, we all walk Samuel to his room, get him settled & he looks up at me and asks "are you coming back to get me?" Awwww.....well, I almost lost it!!! My big boy sitting at his own desk, looking so old!!! After assuring him I would be back, we left and went to Lilee's room. Once she was in there she hung up her backpack like a pro & found her desk & she was settled and ready for me to leave. I think she was just needing a little Mama & I was happy to give it to her!!
Time for a surprise after school snack.....cupcakes!!!

Hi Amanda! Nice to meet you! Ashlyn is also in Chongqing. She is at the Wanzhou SWI. Which orphanage was your daughter in? Your children are adorable!
Blessings,
