ANCIENT CHINESE BELIEF: When a child is born invisible red threads extend from the child's spirit and connect to all the significant people who will be part of the child's life. As the child grows, the threads shorten, drawing closer those people who are destined to be together.






JOHANNA'S FAVORITE VIDEO!

















Tuesday, November 13, 2007



We just returned from doing some touring and Johanna is down for her nap. She is doing really well and seems to be taking a lot of steps in the right direction. The BIG one was last night. I had gone to WalMart with one of the other moms here and bought Johanna some shoes. She LOVES them! She got very silly at dinner last night, after spending the day hitting Chuck and getting upset if he got near her. After dinner she danced her way out of the hotel restaurant watching her shoes! It was so funny! She was holding my hand but then grabbed Chucks and held on to both of us all the way to our room! Then she started making kissy noises to Chuck so he asked her if he could have a kiss. And she planted one on him! It was too cute! Now she knows that she can get a big reaction from us with kisses, so we are getting lots of them!
