Wine...

So, today in the middle of the liquor store (I was purchasing a special mix for a dinner party I am hosting tomorrow night), a woman walks up to me and recommends a wine called Sante Isabella. Well, to say the least, it shocked me. Those of you who know us well will know why.
She was just a stranger and I was looking at a variety of wines but ended up going with her recommendation. We have each had a glass and it is good and has allowed me to relax a little. Boy did I need to relax a little, work has been INSANE!! A huge thank you to a stranger in a store for a lovely glass of wine partially named after our daughter.

Hello! What a neat thing to happen! We are adopting from China now, but 5 yrs ago we adopted an older boy from Russia. On one very disouraging day in our adoption process I went into a video store and started wandering. Out of the corner, I saw the word, "Kolya". This was my russian sons name. Of course I rented the movie. Your story reminded me of this. Pretty amazing how things like this happen!

That's pretty cool. Of course, the name Isabella is beautiful. Our daughter's name is Isabelle, so I love BOTH names! Hope you enjoyed your wine!
