Hello and Congrats on your ADORABLE newest daughter!
ReplyDeleteI just had to post because I love her name. We ALMOST named our daughter from China Kalia (in fact, I was even wearing a bracelet that said Kalia) but at the last minute we ended up naming her Natalie. So, now we’re in process for #2 and the name I keep going back to is Kalia. I’ve never seen anyone with the name…I had liked the name Malia and my husband liked Kalina and we combined the two J. Do you pronounce it Kuh-lia? Anyway, I was just excited about seeing a precious little girl with that name.
Good luck and congratulations!!!!

ReplyDeleteI first want to introduce myself as I am a "chenzhou mom" too! My name is Sophie and we adopted our little girl 6 months ago this coming Tuesday.
I don't even know how I got to your blog, but I am watching and praying with great expectation that your TA will arrive soon!!
I wish you and your family the very very best in the next few weeks!!
Love,
