New Sister

My parents and younger sister went a few weeks ago to China to pick up my newest sister. We were able to communicate with my family via email. My mom would write us and tell us everything they had done that day, what they saw, how Libbie, (my new sister), was adjusting, how Jesel, my other sister was getting along with her, etc...

Perhaps, I should start by saying, for those of you that don't know me, I have now, 6 siblings. 3 of whom are adopted. My younger brother is from Thailand, my younger sister from the Philippines, and now another sister from China.

My mom sent us pictures of Jesel and Libbie while in China. They looked like they were made for each other. BFF's already. They are only 6 months apart, both starting middle school.

Libbie is adjusting so well into our crazy family. She is coming out of her shell more and more these days. She doesn't really speak English, we can't speak Chinese, so it's a lot of hand motions. She already is learning to speak more and more English, and can understand quite a bit. She is very funny and so sweet. Libbie loves babies, and we find her always holding Isla. Sahara loves having 2 aunts that love to play with her. The other day, we were getting ready to head over to my mom's house and Sahara said that she couldn't wait to see if Libbie was still here. I assured her that she was, and after a minute, Sahara said, "That Libbie, she only speaks Spanish." Apparently, if she can't understand it, it must be Spanish. :)
