Celebrating our Gracie Jane







Saturday was Gracie's b-day and we had a fish party for her. She is facinated by fish, either on clothing or our fish tank or books...So that was the theme of our party. She even got her very own fish tank with a goldfish and she loved it. Now if we can only teach her that the fish does not like stickers ( she places them inside the tank)...Oh well. I love seeing her smile and she is doing so well. She is learning more signs and using them and she now loves to play with others. She will even play somewhat appropriately with them instead of just watching . She enjoys being with her siblings and playing. She colors up a storm too. She still loves Winnie the Pooh and at the consignment sale I got some play sets for cheap and she is playing with them...go Gracie. We think her medicine is helping her to focus more during her school time and it settles her spirit some later in the day as well. She loves to curl up on daddy's lap and she is affectionate and loves to rub my feet or give hugs to us all. She has been changing quite alot in the past few months....and it is such a joy to watch her smile and live a contented life.

Hello, I'm somewhat a lurker and I have never posted on your blog, but I do admire you. My daughter adopted from Russia somewhat has the focus issue. If its not too nosy to ask what medicine has helped Gracie? Please let me know if it's okay that I asked. Thanks C Stafford cstafford2@carolina.rr.com for private message/
