This week we celebrated Ciana's 2nd Gotcha Day! Two years ago this week we got off an airplane in Taitung, Taiwan. We visited Hannah's Hope where we had been two years earlier to paint and prepare it for the children waiting to be adopted. However, this time we were there to bring home our little girl. As we sat on the couch waiting for her to be brought to us the staff was there with one man playing the guitar and everyone singing as they brought her to us for the first time. It was a special moment. In some ways it seems like just yesterday and in others it seems like forever ago. Two years have passed and Ciana is changing in many ways. She is talking a lot now around the family, however she is pretty shy when she is around other people. She likes to sing. She has been learning to count, however, she usually skips 6 and 8. She's even learning to count in Spanish. She likes to do puzzles and play outside. She likes to do things herself, like getting dressed. She loves to watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. One of her favorite things to do that makes her giggle is when she gets in a bag and someone picks it up by the handles and swings her around. She is still a runner and is very fast. She keeps us on our toes. We can't imagine our family without her.
