Our Life with Eli: September 2010
http://ourlifewitheli.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Our Life with Eli. We can't wait to share . . . And then . . . I was soooo worried that my stomach was upset, but Eli was soooo good that it took me by surprise. He shared, he interacted, he danced, he smiled, he signed, he impressed, he hugged, he kissed, he melted my heart! He was the baby that I know; and I am glad that he shared that side with others. I cannot imagine loving anything more than I love my baby! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). And then . . . Team World Vision Update. Putting it Into Words.

http://maedaadoption.blogspot.com/2011/02/probably-should-say-more.html
The Maeda's Adoption Journey. Monday, February 14, 2011. Probably Should Say More . . . As it's been quite awhile since I last posted. It's been a fun and hectic couple of months. What with the craziness and chaos and awesome fun of the holiday season. Then the mop-up afterwards! But really, this week my memories of last year at this time are just filling my brain! The excitement and nervous anticipation of laying our hands on OUR SON after the long wait and hours of staring at just a picture. Our Journe...

Our Life with Eli. We can't wait to share . . . Scotch Tape Super Hero. Waiting for Mum to get her prescription. I (Mum) got to visit in September and we did a lot of fun things . I arrived Anchorage - in the rain. Went fishin' - in the rain. Went for a walk on the trail at Turnagain Arm, Cook Inlet - in the rain. Went to the zoo - in the rain. Went to Alaska Wild Berry (Eli in his favorite, if you haven't noticed, 'Alaskan Grown' sweatshirt). And yes, on the day I left - a rainbow. Putting it Into Words.
