Nina's first "welcome home" party

A little over a month ago, my friend Tina organized Nina's first "WELCOME HOME" party. We met at the church, had cake and snacks and punch, and I was able to share about the involvement of Love without boundaries in Nina's life. Thank you so much, Tina, for doing this for us!

Nina really likes Winnie the Pooh (one of her cute little lines: "Mama, watch-a movie Pooh!" ), so she was very excited about the pretty cake Tina made for her!

Hmm, can I eat this?
The kids had a lot of fun playing together. Nina, Laney, Rebekka and Mariah.
Rebekka (7) was adopted from China when she was just a baby. When she heard that they were invited to a shower, she wanted to go buy a present. Her Mom explained to her that they did not need a present, but that they would help support Love Without Boundaries with a d0nation. Rebekka was very excited about helping kids in China, and decided she wanted to give some money too. She went and got one dollar from her very own money and gave it to her Mom to include in her card. Now how sweet is that!
See, Nina, this is how this cake thing works...
Yep, it does taste sooo good! Anya was right!

I know that this looks like a cute and innocent picture of Jonathan and Nina. You have to watch the video though to get the full effect. Nina is actually waving at Anya to come to her rescue. It was so funny. Jonathan was very adament that he was not going to let go of this pretty girl :-))

And when it was time to open presents, Anya was right there to help Nina :-))
I think this was Nina's very favorite present! Ladybug stickers! I really never bought into that whole "adoption and ladybug" kind of stuff, but boy, does Nina love those little crawlers!
