We have a huge world map on the wall in our house and have been talking to our kids about where their new brother will come from. On Father's day our 3 year old got a hold of the envelop that had Ben's Father's day card in it (hence why it says "Daddy" in the middle of it) and drew her own map- all on her own. She was telling us, "Opi lives way over here, Maddie lives here, and Emma, Samuel and Luca live right here." So, Ben added in the labels and she now has her own world map. Note for our other family members: we are working on teaching her where all of you live and someday she will get all of you on her map! Anyway, we thought it was pretty cool and hope that the wall map in our house will continue to show our children how big this world really is and how it's filled with so many different people.
awww, I miss little Maddie! She is so precious and will be such an awesome big sister to another brother someday soon~~
