Yesterday we had a wonderful time hanging out with the Beckering Tribe/Never Too Many. Their house is the perfect place for little people. There is so much to do and it was nice to get away for a bit and have some adult conversation.
This picture is my favorite take-away from the day. Steff's Sophia made this beautiful drawing which shows her and my Sophia together surrounded by hearts and flowers. She tried so hard to make my Sophia comfortable and shared all of her toys with her. Andrew thought it was so funny that there were two Sophia's.
I had to steal this shot of Steffie, she was playing shy hostess...yeah whatever. Bust out the smile girl!
I had taken Sophia to swim once before at the hotel pool in Beijing and she clung to me for dear life. Here is where she started...on the stairs. She stayed there for a good 45 minutes.
Here is where she ended up...which is absolutely amazing to me. She asked for the tube and then swam all around the pool for well over an hour. She was in heaven, not afraid at all.
I just love this little girl and her big heart.
The whole posse, we could start a preschool with all of these kids!

I miss the Saturday morning Chats!!
Take care!
Love the pictures..What a beautiful smile on your swimming Sophia!! She is learning to let go .. One of my happiest moments was when I saw Lauren running around and laughing so loud after her cousin. It was like she allowed herself to be free, a little break through to the inner child. Keep up the good work.. Linda
