Happy Birthday!

We celebrated Taiamani's birthday on Saturday instead of Sunday (Sabbath day). She turned 3. Yes, it's been 3 years already that we've been blessed with our miracle baby. I'm hoping that the terrible two's are over by now, but it doesn't seem like it though. 
We had a little 'get together' with the Sherbel Family because Sis. Sherbel is Taiamani's nursery leader and they have 4 beautiful and fun blond girls to play with her. We were happy to see that she had a lot of fun. She enjoyed her cake very much as well as blowing the candles. 
Then we went to the Overijse park to feed the ducks and enjoy the playground. Needless to say that Mani and Ilyah were incredibly dirty at the end (all the fun for me to wash that). Poor Ilyah, he was the only boy. 
Later that day, we enjoyed the company of Regina and her wonderful children. She's such a strong single mom, we really admire her. She's part of our family too; we adopted each other. 

Here's a few of my favorite clips from Taiamani's movie. I love watching it and remembering how small she was. It's hard sometimes to believe that she's already 3. It is also Taiamani's favorite movie.

*edited: I didn't realized before posting that I haven't edited a couple of clips, so they're pretty long. Sorry if it might be too long at times.


I'll post pictures in a later post.

thanks for all the comments. This is great for the adoption; we always thought about doing that later on too. As for the business, I'm still contemplating it. i love photography, but the business part of it is kind of "scary".
