I can't believe it's been 5 years since Andy and I first saw this cutie-pie across a crowded Chinese Civil Affairs office. I remember those beautiful brown eyes looking around wildly and I couldn't help but wonder exactly what she was thinking.
This darling baby, Feng Yu Jia was her name then, was so quiet and timid... for about a DAY! Those of you who know our sweet Mia know that she is anything BUT that meek and mild little girl we met 5 years ago! She is strong-willed, and bold, and I know she will do great things during her lifetime. She is a fire-cracker, that's for sure!
She is brave and determined in everything she does. She is smart and confident and loves it when we laugh at her jokes, even though they are never very funny. She loves the color pink, is slightly bossy and likes the door open just a little when she sleeps. She has an amazing memory, loves it when we all listen to her sing and pretty much thinks the world was created for her to enjoy. Her favorite phrase to date is, "that's not fair", and she wants to be just like her sisters - who I think are pretty good role models for her to look up to.
We will no doubt watch her adoption video over and over today, like we do every year. Here is the link if you want to reminisce with us!
Miss you!
