Esther will be a SCHOLAR



Yesterday was a beautiful day to celebrate the blessing of having our daughter in our lives and remembering her birthmother who sacrificed all for Esther to be a part of our family, full day celebrate with family and friends, and tiring day of preparation and cooking up a storm. All in all, it was such a great day.

"Toljabee" event is when the child gets to choose something from a tray to predict their future. On the tray there will a thread which signifies long life, book or pencil which signifies they will become a scholar, and money or jewelry that signifies they will be rich. Esther chose a pencil and very content with a pencil. We were very surprised when she didn't choose a ring on the tray because we call her our "bling bling" girl for the reason she loves shiny things (i.e. necklaces, earrings, rings). She will be a scholar. Life will be very interesting having 2 scholars under one roof. Her older sister Helena also chose a pencil at her tol day. It will be the battle of the brains in our house.

Hey mommavia,
At first I didn't know who you were until I checked your blog. I didn't know you had one. It sounds like things for the move are coming along. I can't wait for you to move to San Diego either you'll have to come up to Seattle to visit all the sistas or I'll have to come down to San Diego. Loved San Diego when I in December. Seattle reminds alot of Switzerland with the lakes, mountains, and blue skies in the summer.
