One year ago, I came across this little face on a few blogs, and my heart told me she was what was drawing me in and I knew we had to go get her
One year ago, as I celebrated Christmas with my family here, I wondered and worried about this little lost daughter around the world
One year ago, I watched on Christmas morning as my 3 girls danced in their new dance room and all I could think about was that one little girl was missing from this group, one little girl was meant to be dancing on that dance floor too.
One year ago, we were making one of the most life changing decisions we would ever make, and we were about to embark on a miraculous journey that would change us all.
One year ago, this little one knew nothing of a family or what Christmas was all about
Now she has been home with us for 6 months and in one week she will get to experience the magic of Christmas with a family for the first time.
It feels like she has been part of our family forever and it is amazing to watch how much she has blossomed and grown over the past 6 months......because all she really needed was a family.
I found this song about a little boy in an orphanage who writes a letter to Santa after Santa comes to the orphanage to visit. All he asks for from Santa is a family....
Mia has taught us that this year we all have exactly what we need for Christmas....a family!
And we are so grateful to have Mia home with us this Christmas!

Such a great video! Thanks again for sharing. You have brought me a whole new level of awareness and blessing-counting over the past year!
You continue to amaze me. What a sweet little girl! You are such a neat family and you are such great examples to more people than you know. Thanks for sharing your story!
Crying once again. How wonderful it is that she is home and how blessed you are that it took such a short time. Please hold her extra tight for me tonight as you tuck her in and praise God that she is there with you this year.
It is so much fun watching her blossom and bond with your family.

She is so precious! I love watching her during singing time in nursery. She seems to really enjoy it.
Oh my goodness....such a beautiful video. Thank you so much for sharing. Mia is such a beautiful little girl and you have such a beautiful family. Merry Christmas to you all :)
I'm so happy that you've made one less orphan. She's such a beautiful addition to your beautiful family. Hope you all have a truly magical Christmas!
Way to go making me cry again! Tears of joy, though! I remember last Christmas so well - wondering what our sweet Mia Kareen was doing and praying she was well! xoxoxo
Merry Christmas sweet girl!!!!!!
awesome!!!! What a great Christmas reminder.
I truly forget that she has been home such a short time! Everything about it is just so natural. She looks so at home and your whole family's love for her is so true and pure! I love it and I love you guys for sharing your lives with us!!! Have a wonderful first Christmas, little miss Mia, and a beautiful, healthy holiday to your whole family.
Merry Christmas to Mia Kareen and her family! What a joyous gift it is to say that :) Love the video!!
