Monday, January 17, 2011. We had a very nice Christmas. Celebrating with family and then a wonderful trip to the Happiest Place on Earth. It truly was a special season filled with Joy. Ava Lu was even the star in the Christmas play at church! Family Christmas in Salinas with the cousins. And, Santa Claus made a special visit with gifts for all the children. Ava Lu received a little kitten in a purple purse. It's a treasured gift for her. Posted by Michelle Fortik. Merry Memories Chartreuse Christmas Card.

Feeling the need to reiterate this message to her to ensure it reached her soul, I said again to her in that moment, "do you know that you are beautiful? Of this world and experiencing the. I don't want to play with you today. Messages that we as females let enter in as we go through life seeking connection to others.

Our Journey to Ava Lu: Six. . . it just flew by!
http://babyavalu.blogspot.com/2012/05/six-it-just-flew-by.html
Friday, May 11, 2012. Six it just flew by! I am busy planning Ava Lu's 7th birthday party, and in the midst of all the details, I am struck by how fast her 6th year of life flew by. VBS, Swim team, Tahoe, soccer, Daisy Scouts, 1st grade, learning to ice skate (and loving it! Thrill rides (kid size, that is) at Six Flags, real homework, learning to read, Chinese dance, skiing and so much more, has filled our days with joy as we watch Ava Lu embrace each day with an amazing love for life and people.

Monday, August 13, 2012. Our 2012 Summer has been full and fun. I need to post "real" pictures from my camera when I get them downloaded. Below are a few highlights taken from my phone.

Tuesday, November 30, 2010. It is beginning to look a lot like Christmas. Makes me smile. The celebration of Christ's birth, the beauty and magic in the air and the excitement in my little girl's voice when she hears a familiar Christmas tune. I'm blessed to celebrate the JOY of Christmas this year! We've already seen quite a bit of snow in our travels to the foothills and the sierras. Such a treat. Speaking of Christmas, I'm excited to create our Christmas cards this year on Shutterfly. It is beginning ...
