Happy Birthday Nadya "14"
Tuesday November 24, 2008. We celebrated Nadya's 14th birthday. It was her 2nd B-Day with us here in America as our daughter and us as her forever family. We had a wonderful time. She seemed to be enjoying herself. She was happy that she recieved so many bananas. She loves them and they remind her of her birth mom and some special times she shared with her. It is good to see a smile on her face, one that seems genuine. This was my first attempt to make home made chocolate cake. I made a chocolate cake with chocolate whipped topping and some OREOS. Nadya loves Chocolate. The cake turned out well. I should of cut the pieces smaller, as it was a rich tasting cake. We enjoyed it with some vanilla Ice Cream. Posing for the camera. What a nice surprise Gma was visiting so she was able to join us for Nadya's B-Day!!
Playing some twister and UNO.... Checking out her presents For Dinner we had Spaghetti with Noodles or rice, bread, and salad.
... Once our eyes are opened, we can't pretend we don't know what to do. God who weighs our hearts and keeps our souls knows that we know, and holds us responsible to act ..." -- ~Proverbs 24:12
