The last days have been filled with making arrangements for the three girls I am leaving behind,
making meals and freezing them
(okay, maybe Michaela has been doing more of that than me),
getting caught up on all my accounting work for my job,
and picking out a paint color for the little girls' room.
Did I mention Phil is going to paint the bedroom while I am gone.
I am sure he will have plenty of time.
He will just be holding down the fort,
keeping up with the three little girls,
working full-time,
doing the laundry and
making sure the girl's make it to their speech therapy appointments.
Did I mention he is my HERO! I love that man!!
The most exciting thing I have been working on the past week is learning more about photography.
For my birthday, Phil, my sisters and mom went in together and purchased a new camera for me.
It is amazing!
I am determined to get it off Auto!
I want to perfect a few new techniques to "take" with me to China!

She's not only a fellow adoptive mom and homeschooler,
but also a very gifted photographer and teacher.
So when I should be packing...
I just might be coercing my girls to be my "subjects"
and my dog to pose...
I am learning about f-stops and bokeh...
However my girls might be starting to lose their patience...
I can't wait to take photos of Savannah Faith. Can't you just see her with a little dress on and a bow in her hair. You're almost home sweet one.
