Birthday Girl

Today our sweet Ethiopian Princess turns 4.
We got an update and a picture of the most electric smile you could imagine!

Here is a portion of our update...
"B" has a really big personality: it fills the room. When you enter her room, you’re immediately enveloped by her smile, her laughter, and her gregariousness. You can’t escape them. She loves to involve you in whatever she’s doing. And, along with this big personality comes a good deal of mischief—the good kind of mischief. I don’t always know what she’s saying, but I can recognize tone, and her tone is often sassy and playful. She’s a lot of fun because of that.
How I long to be with her. To have her personality fill our home, to be enveloped by her smile.
This is the last birthday she will celebrate as an orphan, we are her family.
We love you Miss B! Happy 4th Birthday!

She sounds just wonderful Lyndsay! I can't wait to physically see this blessing. I feel like I already know her by your descriptions. I already know she will make me look different at this gift of life we are given... what am I saying, she already has made me look and think differently.
