Lovely Louise and a Lovely, Busy Day
Amy had so much fun yesterday. All throughout the day she kept saying, "Mommy, no go home". We started the day with the Susan Komen event at the beach. This year they moved the venue to the 31st St. Park, and some 2,000 more people participated. Maybe next year it will rival the crowd at the same event in DC (not!). We had the joy of Louise's company, and it made the event personal. I never personally knew any of the ladies with the special pink race numbers. We not only know Louise, we share a special bond. Louise and John brought Michelle home from China a short while after we brought Amy home. Here's when you know someone has physical beauty: they are pretty when they have no hair. Here's when you know someone has inner beauty: they can smile and dance when they have no hair!
Amy was such a cool kid for me during the 5k. She whined a little, sang a little and snacked a little, while I was able to thoroughly enjoy the jog. Later we went to the zoo, for the HRFCC Moon Festival. She was in her glory with face painting, arts and crafts projects and a first visit to see the animals. She cried when we left.

Hi family,
What wonderfully moving pictures of the race, especially with Louise in them. She looks beautiful with or without hair. Amy is adorable in her lovely gown. She is one lucky girl to have such a fun life. Love, Mom
Janet and Don - Having followed this blog since the beginning, I have noticed that you guys are always on the move and experience many things, exposing Amy to a wide variety of activities in the process, but I can't help noticing that there appears to be something missing. I think you guys could take a lesson from us and slow down, so that you can experience the joys of watching 5 to 7 hours of TV a day. You really don't know what you are missing. Poor Amy.
I believe Amy gets more and more beautiful with each post! I still love checking in on the blog and seeing what fun activities you have been busy participating in! Take care and we hope to see you soon.
Whit
