A Blast with "Lil Ms. Firecracker"

Yesterday we met with ‘Lil Ms. Firecracker and her mommy at a mall to play. We've been trying to get together for almost a year and we finally managed to meet. I somehow feel like we have a special connection with Mommy Firecracker. Not only is she a sister in Christ, but she also has a daughter adopted from China who shares the same name as Desheng Darling and shares the same birth province as Doodlebug. DD and ‘Lil Ms. Firecracker are also the same age. Here are some pictures of our day:
An hui Girls 'Lil Ms. Firecracker was very sweet and shared Oscar, her stuffed dog, with DB.
The toy in the Chick-Fil-A kid's meal was a book. That suited DD just fine!

DD and 'Lil Ms. Firecracker got along great and played well together, while Doodlebug entertained the crowd by singing on her "pretend stage."
We really had a great time! Hopefully, it won't be another year before we meet again.

Great pictures. What a coincidence that two of the girls would be from the same area. I see poor little DB is wearing hand-me-downs again! I am so glad that MD learned the value of hand-me-downs when she was young. At 70 I am still enjoying hand-me-downs. Keep up the good work. Love, Aunt Muhl

We did have a blast! It was so nice to see you again and way too long. LMF has not stopped talking about DD and DB. She also liked that DD read to her at lunch. She told all our Chopstick friends at Chinese lessons that afternoon all about DD and DB.

I love all the pictures and the last one of DD and LMF holding hands is so cute. I didn't notice they were mirror imaging each other until I saw it posted.

Thank you for meeting us half way! Let's do it again soon. :-)
