Celebrating those happy "gotchas"

How happy we are to have an international family! Hereto, a celebration of Avamarie and Elizabeth Miller, both born in farflung (and far apart) provinces in China, but now running the Miller family in Minnesota, pretty much. Some snapshots from a recent "Gotcha Day" party for Avamarie and a reunion of Chinese-girl adoption families in Lake Placid, N.Y., all courtesy of Mary Miller:

Avamarie the day Mary and Moriah met her in China, and at her "Gotcha Day" celebration last week in Centerville, Minn. Avamarie is a radiant 4 now.
"Why yes, I would like to have some cake," Avamarie opined. "And soon1"
With big sis Elizabeth, 8.

Such beautiful, beautiful children. There's our Elizabeth and Avamarie on the far right. We are proud to call them family.
