March 24, 2006....Sorry I have not posted for such a long time!! Anyone who has had a new child in the home understands the adjustment to scheduling!!! Everything continues to be going good. She loves her big brothers Brandon, Corey, and Billy and she has even to become adjusted to her pet cat and dog. She does not want to be around them yet but will tolerate them being around. She is saying more and more English words daily and she is begining to be so comfortable in her home. Yes, I am no longer in her room at night. We bought her a sound machine and that helps her sleep at night and nap during the day. With the five inches of snow we received on Tuesday, Sierra got to see snow for the first time but would not touch it. She kept saying "Snow". We have a scheduled date for her surgery. It will be done on April 20, 2006. Two days after her first birthday here in the states. Well, at least she will enjoy her birthday and baptism without pain!!! Well, please keep her in your prayers that she remains healthy for her surgery day and that the surgery goes without any complications. Once again we are so blessed to have such a great family community!!
