Elisabeth wore her It's a Small World shirt to school yesterday. It reminded me of the day we told my Mom about the adoption. All three girls dressed in coordinating clothes and sang, "It's a Small World". And finally, at the end of the song, they brought a picture of her out from behind their backs and announced, "We're adopting!"
It's a Small World has always been near and dear to me. And even more so now that we are welcoming our new little one from the other side of the globe.

It's a world of laughter, a world or tears
It's a world of hopes, its a world of fears
There's so much that we share
That its time we're aware
It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
Its a small, small world
There is just one moon and one golden sun
And a smile means friendship to everyone
Though the mountains divide
And the oceans are wide
It's a small, small world
