Here's a few more photos from our "Melaina Day" evening.
After work, I went to M's daycare & read "Over the Moon", a beautiful adoption story, to her class.
She was so excited to have me there.
Her special request was pizza, ice cream & riding the carousel at the mall.
Bria joined us!

Melaina has made significant improvements in her overall physical strength.
In the last few months, she's developed the strength & confidence to jump off things like curbs, step stools & even her bed! She's running like a normal 3 yr old.
I used to say she wouldn't be our athete, but she may prove us wrong.
Her speech has also dramatically improved. She still has a way to go, but with time & therapy she should get there.
God has blessed us with our beautiful angel.
We love you M
