re: Elizabeth

Elizabeth continues to come out of her shell and steal our hearts with
her smiles. She definitely prefers Daddy and almost ignores me
completely. It is very hard, but I do know that this is very typical
of kids from orphanages. She is adorable, funny and so sweet that you
just want to squeeze her like crazy!

The last few days have been very quiet in Guangzhou. We have loved
getting used to eachother as a family. She loves swimming which of
course we are thrilled about. We have had some difficulty getting her
to sleep at night. She seems to not want to miss anything that is
going on.

Love is definitely in the air in the Howard family:)

    We have all had so much fun following your journey! We can't wait to meet her, but I must say, Kevin and Eric are especially thrilled to follow Elizabeth's journey to her forever family!! It certainly does pull at your every emotion to be sure!

    All our very best!

  3. I'm enjoying being able to follow along on your journey. It is so encouraging to see how well Elizabeth is adjusting. I can't wait to hear more when you arrive back in the states! Enjoy the rest of your adoption journey.
