In The Beginning...............

In the beginning there was a man named Flavio and a woman named Diana. They were very much in love so the decided to get married on July 20th, 1996 and start their family. Much to their disappointment things didn't work out as planned, and after many heartbreaks Diana decided to seek medical assistance. Little was she aware of the tumultuous rollercoaster ride of emotions that she was about to embark on. Flavio, forever supportive, joined the ride and hoped for the best. After many, many years of heartache, heartbreak , and a sadness that cuts right to the bone they finally realized that this wasn't the plan for them. They wanted to be parents, to love and nurture a child. To teach them all about life and to share their lives together as a family on an incredible journey of love. Their journey of love led them to the otherside of the world, across 12 time zones to the small city of Taihe in the province of Jiangxi, China and finally to Sophia and Alyssa. Diana and Flavio had so much love for these two tiny innocent babies that they felt as if their hearts would burst. And as the story goes ..........."they lived happily ever after."

This is our story and this is my venue to "tell it like it is". We wouldn't change a thing about our journey because to do that would mean we wouldn't have our two munchkins. Having said ALL THAT there are days (sigh)......................................

So, the picture you see is of "gorgeous" (*wink), hubby Flavio, with his girls lounging on their new table and chairs (taken at Christmas time).

So I hope you enjoy OUR LIFE with Sophia and Alyssa, as it REALLY is!
