Our little anniversary

It has been two months since Julia arrived home. TWO months. Just thinking about it is mind boggling. Julia has taken in so many new things and experienced so much in this short time. She has adapted and learned -- about us, our language, our customs, our house, our pets, school, phone calls with grandma, new friends, food, toys, books, books, books, the alphabet, numbers, animals, singing, dancing, the kids museum, the zoo, talking to her sister using a computer and camera, taking pictures, doctors, dentists, movies, pigtails, dress up clothes, our pond, fall, play dough, crayons, leaves falling off trees, wearing more and more cloths, cold, being told what to do and when to do it, freedom (in small doses), her own room, mommy and daddy's bed, western toilets and loud flushing, bubble baths, car seats, supermarkets and riding in the carriage, doll clothes, bubbles, and dresses. Have I scratched the surface? How is she taking it all in and making sense of it? And she is our baby, our mei-mei, and such a big girl.
