Brielle is 26 months! Happy late Valentine's Day!

Brielle turned 26 months old today so I thought I'd take a few Valentine's Day pics...couldn't take 'em on the 14th because my battery charger came up missing!

In the b&w one, she looks so much like me when I was little, it's shocking! In the last pic she is giving y'all a kiss.

Without further ado, here is my little love:

Dian,
Great pics! How about posting one of you when you were little so we can all see?

I love the high-tops, too!

Ever since I saw the first pic of Brielle, I've been amazed at how adorable she is. Now that she's a little older, she's just as precious. She just glows!

Brielle, I know you are just blowing that kiss to Danny and Ricco! What a doll and you know she could be a model. Have you thought about submitting a photo to Adoptive family Magazine??

So nice to see how she is growing.

Mary, mom to Danny and Ricco
