Tonight we attended the “Party on the Patio” to support the Child Study Center in Fort Worth. My uncle Roger is director of development for them and they do a wide variety of things to help children in Fort Worth. In addition to all the other services they provide to local children, they have an international adoption clinic. I am glad it’s there, but blessed that we haven’t needed their services because Nadia is doing so well. But I love that the option is there for adoptive families.
Their website is http://www.cscfw.org/
Tonight was their big fundraiser at Joe T. Garcia’s Mexican restaurant and Roger asked us to bring Nadia with us to be the “model” for the hand-made rocking horse. The horse was painted by the children at the C.S.C. school. We saw it last week at and thought it was the cutest thing. They had a bunch for really cool things for the silent auction and live auction. Nadia was the only child at the event and of course looked cute and got lots of attention. Which led to her giving people the “stare down” while she studied the situation. HA HA! I was glad to see how well they did at their fundraiser and it was a nice night out with the cuteness.

Little People Easter Eggs
Louanne on Apr 13th 2008

Joy and Janis bought Nadia the Fisher Price “Little People” Easter Eggs and put them in this cute Easter Basket. I am just now talking about it because of how funny Nadia is when she plays with it. She is very precise with it which is fun to watch. She likes to sit in one of our laps with the basket in front. Then she takes them out one by one and opens them up to look inside. When she opens the bunny she will say, “Hop, Hop, Hop” and make the bunny hop. When she opens the sheep she says, “Baaaaa.” Before moving to the next egg, she closes the current one and says, “All done.”
After she has opened all six, she puts them all back in the Elmo basket. Unlike her other toys that get thrown around and mixed up, she is very careful that all the little people go back in their eggs and then back in the basket. She just cracks me up!
