A bit ago was reading some of these posts to my wife.....tears were a flowin' folks.

Don't read to her when she's cutting onions for dinner Bogey.

Oh good grief.........are you sure your wife and my Nancy aren't sisters?? I have to keep an IV with a saline drip in the house so she doesn't dehydrate.

Thanks.  We're a bit biased, so completely agree.  ;D  Yes.  She is from China (Hubei).  She was 11 months when we adopted her.

Did she have any attachment issues?? They scared the H-E-Double Toothpicks outta Nancy and I by stressing the attachment issues of kids whose natural trust cycle with the mother was interrupted by being taken from the home early.

My son turned 6 in March and I wish I knew half as much as he does ( I know that already dad) :)

He is a Star Wars fan and Dinosaur fanatic. I read alot of sci fi to him as well as the technical dinosaur books.
He is a budding monster fan but is mainly a gore fan. When he was 4 we began discussing religion and his views were that God lived in the woods with his mom and a pack of werewoves. I asked why he lived with werewolves and Jon said that they helped him fight zombies. I later found out that my mother in law had introduced Jon to the wonderful world of Monsters. He still watches monster movies with my mother inlaw I just ask that she explain them better to him :).

Hey Andy, how is little Mia doing?  I hope all is well!

BK
Mia is doing great, thanks for asking.  She recently had her first follow-up surgery to lengthen her growth rods and it went very well.  She just got the "OK" for swings and slides, so she can do some activities with her friends in preschool now.  That means a lot to her because she is such a social kid.  We are having the usual meetings to get her ready for kindergarten next year, and things are progressing nicely. :)

Thanks to all who responded to this thread. I've enjoyed reading every word!

Okay, here a 21st birthday photo of my daughter Stephani holding her little brother Maui.



Thanks,
Mike

OMG!
Mike she just stunning!  21 already!

Our daughter, Anita, just graduated from college yesterday.  I just kept thinking of all the different stages in her life and all the things she did.  I remembered the special way they had to salute the flag when she was a cheerleaders at all the games.  So as soon and the Star Spangled Banner started playing I need to squeeze the hankie out.  We needed a bucket for the tears. 

I'm very emotional anyway.  I even cry seeing the little puppies in the Cottonelle commercials.  But graduation was totally different from that!

Thanks, Laura. Yeah, as I get older I get more sentimental. I hit the big 4-9 this year, so I can only imagine what next year will be like for me!!!

On a side note, after Stephi opened all her presents she looked at me and said she couldn't believe I didn't get her "Pride and Predjudice and Zombies"!! Me, of all people!!

It arrived via Amazon today!! ;D  (She should know me better than that by now!!)

I'll let you know, Mike. My 5-0 is this year!

It's really nice to hear so many proud parents speak of their beautiful children. I'm blessed with two: Tabitha is 8 and Caitlin is now 17! How did that happen? When I look at her performing on stage, I have to shake my head in disbelief. Luckliy she's caring and funny, so I'd have lots to be proud of even if she didn't have talent!
