I'm baaccckkk.
I've been a very negligent blogger. It is hard to believe that I haven't blogged (on any of our blogs) in 13 months. So much has happened during my absence. (So much has changed with Blogger and my blog is way broken!) It has been a long, hard, emotional year. The best news is that "mei mei" the reason for this blog is REAL; she has a name; she has a face; and she is almost home.
One day I will document her story. It is too long to do now but too special not to be recorded. For now, I am taking a break from packing and I want to share her beautiful face and the awesome news that in a little over two weeks we will have her in our arms and she will be our daughter forever.
We hope to be able to blog while we are in China and would love for you to follow along.
Meet Xin Mei Ting--soon to be Millie Mei Osborn.
This is the first picture I saw of her and the rest is history...
Sweet girl with a confusing, lost-in-translation dress!
Bundled for winter. Almost two years old.
Playing during summer.
Playground princess!
Pretty in pink!
I can't believe how big my 2 1/2 year old is!
Words can't express how much I love her!
Tickled pink!

Yay!!! Can't wait to follow you to China & to finally see Millie in your arms! Love you & will be praying for you.
I'm so happy to see you will be blogging again...well...I know it may just be for the trip;) But I am soooo excited for you. I will be so thankful to finally write a date down beside her name in my prayer journal the moment she is in your arms:) Love you!!!
Oh my goodness - that last picture is so stinkin' adorable! :)
So excited, Lisa! I'm glad you're back to blogging... maybe I'll feel an inspired 'kick-in-the-tush' to do the same!! FB has pretty much been my grounds these days... though I seriously miss my bloggy friends who aren't on FB with us. SO excited to see Mei Mei at home with you. It's time, it's TIME!!!! YEAH!
Praying for safe and healthy travels, and that God will surround you all in His mighty hedge of protection as you meet your baby girl for the first time!
Love you!
