Saturday Anna had her first birthday since joining our family. Last year we waited anxiously to receive pictures of her party from the orphanage.
What a difference a year makes! Leaving the orphanage, traveling all the way to America, learning a new language, having major surgery. Anna has come so far this last year and has done so well. She expresses her joy in many ways every day.
Although a bit overwhelmed, Anna had a wonderful time at her party. Our next door neighbor Howard provided a bouncy room that was the hit of the day.

Last year could you have IMAGINED that Anna would be crazy happy BOUNCING in a bouncy room????? My jaw drops almost everytime I visit your blog! The sky's the limit isn't it. How I wish we could make these dreams a reality for more. But....the ones we have are sure happy campers, and for that I am grateful as I know you are too. We are so lucky to have them. Tell Anna happy birthday from Juni and Jia!
Love all
