Gotcha!

"And anyone who welcomes a little child like this on my behalf is welcoming me"
Matthew 18:5
 Maddox Ren, you are joy in our hearts and warmth to our souls
 Two years ago, on this day, you were placed in our arms forever.  You were so very scared....and so sad....your world forevermore changed.
And today, you are full of spunk, laughter, and innocent mischief.  You are loved beyond measure.  Your sweet smile lights up any room.  And your playful spirit brings joy to anyone within reach.  You are all about your mommy, and your mommy is smitten.  Just the other night you reached up, placed your sweet hands on my cheeks and said, "Mommy, when I was a baby in China, I missed you."  Melt.my.heart.  
Happy two years of forever, sweet girl.

 And the opening of the gift....
 Meanwhile, the girls participated in a fashion show benefit to raise funds for a friend with cancer
 MK was all smiles and giggles as she and her friend donned the stage in all of their six year old beauty!  Maddox was precious too....she had her sweet, innocent little smile and bravely walked the stage alone!
