Mia celebrated her birthday with her preschool class on Tuesday. It was pretty special since her birthday is not really for another month. This is her bouquet of well-wishes from her classmates. Mia’s year of Tappin’ Toddlers ended today with a mini-recital. Video coming soon… Promise, last one of Mia. I just couldn’t help myself. […]

Resilience
I mentioned in some previous posts (and some people have asked) about how emotional it was the day we picked up Ty. Well, I’m finally getting around to sharing Ty’s adjusted well enough that I am ready to go relive what happened that day and the days to follow. I should also thank my relentless […]

The tour started nearly in front of our hotel at Gyeongbuk Palace–the largest palace in Seoul. The artwork painted on the word work was so amazing. Yup, that’s Mia with Ronald […]
