Look Who's Six!

Deanna had a fun sixth birthday. She loves the attention. Her birthday was Friday, so she had cupcakes at school with her friends. Then we took her out to Red Robin for dinner where she enjoyed being sung to.

On Saturday we had a nice family birthday party. She loved all of her gifts and she told me "I'm so happy I got so many toys!"

We got her a Disney Princess clock radio that tells stories. She really loved this. I taught her to stay in bed in the morning until the clock said 08:00! It worked!

Its so nice to see such a happy girl celebrating her birthday for only the second time in her life.

About Us

This is the story of our family beginning with the adoption of our adorable, sweet, and spunky daughter Deiana, whom we adopted from Ukraine in February, 2008, at the age of 4. We have 2 handsome sons, Jordan, and Jeremy , and Deiana, now completes our family. Deiana was born with a cleft lip and palate. Her palate was never repaired in Ukraine so that was the first thing we took care of after we brought her home. Due to this she had never been able to speak, so we had to work very hard at home and in speech therapy. Aside from this she is very healthy and really has no other issues. Deiana is an amazing, loving, resiliant girl and we are blessed to have her.
